The Elan Ripstick Tour 94 skis fall in the middle of the Ripstick Tour line up, with a 94-millimeter waist providing a great width for all- mountain touring versatility. We like to think that the mid-90's waist width achieves “Goldilocks” levels of a one ski quiver, and Elan nailed this category in the 94. These skis has great width for both floating and carving. And thanks to its lightweight, (1490 grams at a 178-centimeter length) these skis will fly up the skin track by allowing you to use minimal effort and save your energy for the run down. With skin notches located in the tip and tail of the ski, Elan designed specific skins to match the Tour 94 dimensions, so just peel, paste and go. No cutting or trimming needed. Carbon Bridge technology has been added to Elans Amphibio profile for a smooth ride and superior edge grip on hard pack, while the tip and tail rocker provide a surfy feel in soft snow and tight spaces. The Elan Ripstick Tour 94 skis really blur the line between the Ripstick powerhouse of last season to a backcountry ninja of all trades that is equally impressive on the ascent as it is on the descent.
