Description
The Elan Ripstick Tour 104 is a freeride-inspired touring ski developed to be as fun on the climbs as it is on the descents.

Tech Specs
The Elan Ripstick Tour 104 has become as legendary as the man with the Mohawk. Glen Plake offered his decades of experience and knowledge to the design team at Elan to help develop a lighter version of the venerable Ripstick series for boosted uphill performance. The Ripstick tour delivers featherweight climbing capabilities with none of the compromise in downhill performance typically associated with touring-specific skis.
If a typical day of skiing takes you off the beaten path, the Ripstick 104 will take you into uncharted territory so you can climb higher and descend faster without breaking a sweat. Thanks to its Amphibio left/right specific core profile, the 104mm width picks up an impressive amount of versatility in variable snow conditions. The inside edge of the core is reinforced to boost grip on the hardpack and windboard, and a freeride-inspired rocker profile creates a good amount of flotation and durability. Wrap that all up in a punk-rock inspired hot pink graphic, and you've got a ski that's as legendary as Plake himself.
These technologically advanced marvels are perfect for intermediate to advanced skiers with a knack for exploration. Strap them on, head for the hills, and let the good times roll.
