The ELAN RC Wingman are children’s and junior all-mountain / all-round skis designed for recreational and sporty young skiers who want to improve their technique and gradually learn the fundamentals of carving turns. The manufacturer describes the model as a ski developed for aspiring racers, with technology that supports the fundamentals of carving. A length range of 110–160 cm, dimensions of 115-70-100 mm, and turn radii from 6.1 to 13.7 m make it possible to choose an appropriate version for junior skiers of different sizes and ability levels.
The technical foundation is the Channel Woodcore, a wood core complemented by Fibreglass construction and EST – Extended Sidewall Technology. The ski uses a classic Camber profile. This combination corresponds to a more sport-oriented junior model designed to support the young skier’s gradual technical development. However, the available information does not specify the exact fibreglass layup, sidewall material or further details of the internal construction, so we do not add information beyond the manufacturer’s specifications.
The skis have the same 115-70-100 mm dimensions across all lengths, while the turn radius gradually changes from 6.1 m at 110 cm to 13.7 m at 160 cm. A 70 mm waist, Camber profile and EST construction correspond primarily to a focus on groomed slopes. The product classification simultaneously lists use on groomed slopes and in powder; we therefore retain the all-mountain / all-round category from the supplied information, but do not attribute the characteristics of wide freeride skis to this model.
The model uses the JR Shift plate and is supplied with bindings according to ski length. For the 110–120 cm versions, the recommended binding is the EL 4.5 GW CA JRS with an adjustment range of 0.75–4.5, while the 130–160 cm lengths use the EL 7.5 GW CA JRS with a range of 2–7.5. The product classification also lists binding categories up to 45 kg and up to 70 kg. These weight categories must not be confused with a specific release setting; the correct binding adjustment must always correspond to the individual skier’s parameters and should be carried out professionally.
Who are these skis designed for
The ELAN RC Wingman are designed for children and juniors who are ready to move beyond a basic recreational ski and want a model that supports further technical development, more precise turn control and their first steps towards a carving-oriented skiing style. The manufacturer specifically describes them as a model for aspiring racers, while the product classification covers both recreational and sporty skiers.
This model is particularly suitable for children and juniors who:
want to gradually develop the fundamentals of carving technique
are looking for skis for recreational to sporty skiing
want junior all-mountain / all-round skis
benefit from a Camber profile
prefer a Channel Woodcore
are looking for a construction complemented by Fibreglass
can benefit from EST – Extended Sidewall Technology
need a 70 mm waist
are looking for a length between 110 and 160 cm
want a turn radius adapted to the specific ski length
appreciate the JR Shift plate
want a complete setup with the corresponding EL 4.5 GW CA JRS or EL 7.5 GW CA JRS binding
appreciate the Sintered High Speed Gliding Base
According to the supplied information, the RC Wingman are not full junior race skis with a specific racing homologation or dedicated race construction. They are a model for young skiers and aspiring racers who want to develop the fundamentals of carving and progress from standard recreational skiing towards a more technical and sporty skiing style.
How the skis perform
The RC Wingman use a Camber profile, meaning the classic arched ski profile. Combined with the 115-70-100 mm dimensions and a construction featuring Channel Woodcore, Fibreglass and EST, it forms the technical foundation of a model focused on developing carving technique. The manufacturer specifically states that the model’s technology supports the fundamentals of carving.
The turn radius varies by length from a very short 6.1 m at 110 cm to 13.7 m at 160 cm. The shorter children’s versions therefore have a significantly smaller radius, while the radius gradually increases with ski length. This allows the individual lengths to be geometrically adapted to different size categories of young skiers.
The product classification lists use on groomed slopes as well as in powder, while the technical specifications include a 70 mm waist and Camber profile. Based on the supplied information, the model can therefore be described as a junior all-mountain / all-round ski with a strong focus on technical development and carving; however, the manufacturer does not provide further details regarding its performance in deeper or ungroomed snow.
How to read the specifications
Dimensions 115-70-100 mm
The model has dimensions of 115-70-100 mm, meaning 115 mm at the tip, 70 mm underfoot and 100 mm at the tail.
The same dimensions are specified across the entire length range in the technical description. The 70 mm waist also falls within the stated product category of 64–75 mm.
Turn radius 6.1–13.7 m
The turn radius varies according to length:
110 cm – 6.1 m
120 cm – 7.4 m
130 cm – 9.0 m
140 cm – 10.4 m
150 cm – 11.9 m
160 cm – 13.7 m
The shortest versions therefore fall within the children’s and junior radius category below 10 m, while lengths from 140 cm have a short radius in the 10–14 m range. This corresponds to the product classification, which lists both categories.
Lengths 110–160 cm
The model is available in lengths of 110, 120, 130, 140, 150 and 160 cm.
This broad range makes it possible to choose between children’s and junior versions. The correct length should be selected according to the individual skier’s height, weight, technical ability and skiing style rather than age alone.
Camber profile
The RC Wingman use a Camber profile.
The available information does not specify the exact camber height or other dimensional characteristics of the profile. We therefore retain the manufacturer’s designation without adding parameters that are not stated in the technical specifications.
Technologies and construction
Channel Woodcore
The ski is built around a Channel Woodcore, which is specified as the model’s core in the technical description. The product classification simultaneously identifies it as a wood core.
The available information does not specify the particular type of wood used, the arrangement of the individual sections of the core or its exact internal construction. We therefore do not add information beyond the Channel Woodcore designation.
Fibreglass
The construction includes Fibreglass, a fibreglass reinforcement listed by the manufacturer both among the technologies and in the technical construction description.
The manufacturer does not specify the exact number of layers, their orientation, weight or position within the construction in the supplied information. Fibreglass is therefore listed as a confirmed part of the construction without adding unsupported details.
EST – Extended Sidewall Technology
The model uses EST – Extended Sidewall Technology, which is listed both among the technologies and in the construction specification.
The available information does not provide a more detailed description of the extent of the sidewalls, their material or exact construction. We therefore retain the manufacturer’s technology designation without adding characteristics that are not confirmed in the supplied data.

The RC Wingman feature a Sintered High Speed Gliding Base, which is listed both among the technologies and in the technical construction description.
This is a sintered base designated by the manufacturer as a High Speed Gliding Base. The supplied information does not specify further material parameters or particular service requirements, so we do not add details beyond the manufacturer’s designation.
JR Shift
The model uses a JR Shift plate.
The available information does not contain further technical details regarding the construction, adjustment range or other characteristics of this plate. We therefore retain the JR Shift designation without adding unsupported specifications.
EL 4.5 GW CA JRS / EL 7.5 GW CA JRS
The recommended binding changes according to ski length:
110–120 cm – EL 4.5 GW CA JRS
130–160 cm – EL 7.5 GW CA JRS
For the EL 4.5 GW CA JRS, an adjustment range of 0.75–4.5 is specified, while for the EL 7.5 GW CA JRS, the manufacturer specifies 2–7.5.
The product classification also lists binding weight categories of up to 45 kg and up to 70 kg. These figures cannot be used as a direct substitute for an individual binding release setting. The bindings must always be correctly adjusted according to the individual skier’s parameters and equipment.
