Elan Ripstick 88 W Skis 2026/27

The Elan Ripstick 88 W is a women’s all-mountain ski built for confident resort performance, combining quick edge-to-edge response, smooth turn initiation, and enough versatility for mixed snow and off-trail exploration.

Why It Stands Out

• Balanced 88 mm Platform: The 88 mm waist gives the Ripstick 88 W a nimble, frontside-friendly feel while still offering enough width for changing resort conditions and light soft-snow use.
• Lightweight Power: CarbonDeck Technology, Carbon Rods, UD Carbon, Flax Fibre, and a Tubelite Woodcore create a ski that feels energetic, stable, and easy to maneuver all day long.
• Amphibio Profile: Elan’s Amphibio Profile helps the ski enter turns smoothly while maintaining dependable edge grip, giving it an intuitive, confidence-building feel on a wide range of terrain.

Ideal For

The Ripstick 88 W is ideal for intermediate, advanced, and expert women skiers who want a lighter all-mountain ski that feels especially comfortable on groomers but still has enough versatility for variable in-bounds snow and occasional off-piste laps. It is a strong choice for skiers who value quickness, control, and an easy, energetic ride.

Technical Specs

• Construction: CarbonDeck Technology, Carbon Rods, UD Carbon, Flax Fibre, Tubelite Woodcore.
• Profile & Sidewall: Amphibio Profile with SST (Slanted Sidewall Technology).
• Base & Geometry: Sintered High Speed Gliding base with 125-88-104 mm geometry.

How It Compares

Compared with the Ripstick 94 W, the Ripstick 88 W is quicker edge to edge and more frontside-oriented for skiers who spend more time on groomed terrain. Compared with narrower carving skis, it keeps a more versatile all-mountain shape that is better suited to variable resort conditions.

Bottom Line: The Elan Ripstick 88 W is a lively women’s all-mountain ski for skiers who want quick handling, reliable edge hold, and versatile resort performance in an approachable 88 mm platform.

Choose your length and enjoy a ski that feels fast, intuitive, and ready for everyday laps across the mountain.
