As the widest ski in the Ripstick collection, the 116 is the flag bearer as Elan's freeride flagship. It is a hard charging big mountain freeride ski that’s strong, yet responsive, for exciting mountain exploring. With the Amphibio profile of turned up outter edges of the ski for exceptional maneuverability and confidence at speed, the Ripstick 116 is made for the deep pow days we all dream of. These skis cut through any snow your mountain has to offer: windblown, crud and cut up junk are handled with ease due to the direct power transmission of SST sidewall technology. The addition of TNT technology combines woodcore from tip-to-tail, with carbonfiber rods along each rail and vaportip inserts in the tip and tail for light weight and less chatter. Designed for the biggest and deepest in the backcountry, the Ripstick 116 is all about good times.
