Elan ACE SC9+ Shift X

Premium performance carving skis with a strong slalom-inspired character, designed to deliver maximum precision, lightning-fast edge-to-edge transitions and exceptional stability on groomed slopes. Built with advanced construction, a high-performance wood core and an integrated binding system, they are the perfect choice for recreational and sporty skiers looking for dynamic piste performance without stepping into the demanding world of race skis.

The Elan ACE SC9+ Shift X sits at the top of the ACE performance range. Its combination of the Race Frame Woodcore, Active Suspension Drive construction, Mono Ti reinforcement and RST Racing Sidewall technology delivers exceptionally precise power transmission, outstanding edge grip and remarkable stability even at high speeds. The traditional Camber profile ensures maximum edge contact with the snow, while TractionTip makes turn initiation smoother and improves control throughout every carve.

Who are these skis for?

The Elan ACE SC9+ Shift X is designed for recreational and sporty skiers who enjoy fast carving on groomed slopes. Compared to the SC5 and SC7 models, it offers a more performance-oriented feel, greater steering precision and enhanced stability during aggressive skiing.

Ideal for:

  • sporty skiers
  • advanced recreational skiers
  • men and women
  • fast carving on groomed pistes
  • short and medium-radius turns
  • all-day skiing
  • hard-packed and perfectly groomed snow

These skis perform best on well-prepared slopes, where their sporty character can be fully appreciated.

How do the skis perform on the slopes?

The ACE SC9+ Shift X responds instantly to every movement, providing an exceptionally direct and precise skiing experience. Thanks to the Race Frame Woodcore, energy transfer is immediate, while overall stability remains outstanding during quick direction changes.

The Mono Ti reinforcement increases torsional rigidity for even more precise edge control, while Active Suspension Drive effectively absorbs vibrations. The result is a ski that remains calm and confidence-inspiring at speed while still feeling responsive and easy to control.

Key on-snow characteristics:

  • exceptionally precise turn control
  • lightning-fast edge-to-edge transitions
  • outstanding edge grip
  • excellent stability at higher speeds
  • effective vibration damping
  • energetic acceleration out of the turn
  • outstanding control during aggressive skiing

Understanding the specifications
