Elan has been at the forefront of pioneering ski technology since they debuted the first shaped ski in the early 90s. Since then, they took a brief hiatus but have burst back onto the women's ski scene with the incredibly successful Ripstick series. This new line of skis boasts their unique tubelight construction that keeps the pounds down without sacrificing an ounce of performance. The other great thing about the Ripstick series is they have a model for everyone with 3 different underfoot profiles, so no matter where on the mountain you find yourself they have a ski that can work for you.
