The Elan Ripstick 94 W Black Edition Ski adds QuadRod carbon reinforcement to the standard Ripstick 94 W's platform, giving advanced-expert skiers the power and stability to charge from groomers straight into glades. An Amphibio profile pairs a cambered inside edge for precision with a rockered outside edge for smooth turn transitions, while a TubeLite wood core keeps the extra reinforcement from adding bulk to the feel underfoot. Built for both all-mountain terrain and genuine powder days, it holds a confident line whether the snow is packed or knee-deep. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I pushed this ski through a glade run with variable, chopped-up snow and it never once felt like it was working against me. The extra carbon shows up as confidence at speed, not added weight in my legs by the end of the day."
