Description

The 2026 Elan Ripstick 88 W is a top choice for women seeking a nimble, confidence-inspiring ski that excels on groomers, in bumps, and through variable terrain. Updated for the new season with a slightly reduced sidecut for greater stability at speed and the addition of unidirectional carbon and flax fiber, this ski is even more lively and less “hooky” than before—perfect for skiers who want a smooth, intuitive ride with plenty of energy.
