Ripstick T80 (2025-26)

The RIPSTICK T80 is designed for the next generation of freeskiers, from resort slopes to the backcountry. It is much more than just a ski. It represents the ideal fusion of the lightness required for efficient ascents and the performance desired for exhilarating descents. From front slopes to back bowls, groomed runs and bumps; young skiers can explore all conditions with confidence and control, as these skis effortlessly adapt to changing conditions. Widened for big mountains and deeper snow, this ski benefits from light construction technology while retaining the adaptability and reassuring character that made the Ripstick series famous.

Finding the perfect balance between downhill performance and light construction for efficient ascents is a challenge, but the Ripstick T80 meets it brilliantly. It's the dream solution for skiers looking for more lift and who prefer a wider waist in the backcountry. With unparalleled edge grip and precise handling on groomed terrain, the Ripstick 80 T remains soft and agile in mixed snow conditions, with just enough width for a surprise powder day. For free touring ambitions, Elan has combined its new Carbon Bridge technology with the integration of carbon rod reinforcement. The result is a ski that is both solid and has a powerful rebound, offering the best weight/performance ratio in the free touring segment. The precise length of this reinforcement is designed to effectively reduce vibrations and tip chatter. The reduced shape of the sidewall gives the ski a unique look and allows for functional weight reduction, while the addition of full sidewalls increases edge pressure and contact. This Ripstick T80 is designed to be fast and light on the climb, yet stable and solid on the descent. It is a universal touring ski that leaves nothing to be desired.
