Elan Ripstick 106 W Flat

Elan Ripstick 106 W Flat are high-performance women’s freeride skis designed for experienced and sport-oriented skiers looking for a wide yet agile model primarily for powder, soft snow and variable conditions away from groomed pistes. With a 106 mm waist, they provide plenty of surface area for deeper snow, while the Amphibio Profile, lightweight Tubelite Woodcore and extensive use of carbon keep the construction focused on maneuverability, low weight and a sporty character.

One of the key technologies of this model is Carbon Deck Technology, complemented by Carbon Rods, UD Carbon and Flax Fiber. Elan combines the wood core with several construction elements to create a lightweight and performance-oriented freeride ski. One ski in the 168 cm length weighs just 1585 ± 50 g, which is an important figure considering the 106 mm waist, especially for skiers who want a wide freeride ski without an unnecessarily heavy feel underfoot.

A characteristic feature of the Ripstick range is the Amphibio Profile combining Camber and Rocker. Together with the 139-106-119 mm dimensions and a radius ranging from 15.8 to 18.8 m depending on length, it creates a versatile freeride platform primarily focused on powder skiing while allowing different turn shapes depending on the selected length and terrain. The model is supplied Flat, without bindings, allowing the binding setup to be selected according to the skier’s specific requirements and intended use.

Who are these skis designed for

Elan Ripstick 106 W Flat are primarily intended for experienced and sport-oriented female skiers who prefer freeride, powder and skiing beyond traditional groomed pistes. The product classification places them in the Race and Sports categories, while their width, construction and profile are clearly focused on freeride use.

The model is particularly suitable for skiers who:

  • are looking for high-performance women’s freeride skis

  • prefer powder and soft snow

  • want a 106 mm waist

  • require low weight relative to the ski’s width

  • want a combination of Camber + Rocker

  • prefer a Tubelite Woodcore

  • are looking for a construction incorporating carbon reinforcements

  • want skis suitable for different freeride turn shapes

  • prefer a Flat version without a predetermined binding

  • are looking for a sport-oriented freeride model

Ripstick 106 W are not narrow carving skis designed primarily for all-day skiing on hard, groomed pistes. Their main environment is freeride terrain and powder, where the 106 mm waist, Amphibio profile and lightweight carbon-based construction can be used to their full potential.

How the skis perform in the snow

The 139-106-119 mm geometry creates a wide platform focused on freeride performance. The 106 mm waist provides significantly more surface area than traditional piste skis and corresponds to the model’s intended use in deeper and softer snow.

The Amphibio (Camber + Rocker) profile combines two different profile concepts within the ski’s construction. The supplied technical information confirms the combination of Camber + Rocker, although the exact distribution of the individual profile sections is not specified.

The radius ranges from 15.8 to 18.8 m and gradually increases with ski length. The shorter 154 cm version has a 15.8 m radius, while the longest 175 cm version has an 18.8 m radius. The longer versions therefore offer a progressively larger nominal radius while also providing a greater overall ski surface.

Low weight is another important characteristic. The manufacturer specifies 1585 ± 50 g for one ski in the 168 cm length. The combination of Tubelite Woodcore, Carbon Deck Technology, Carbon Rods and UD Carbon therefore forms the technical foundation of a wide freeride ski where weight is an important construction parameter.

How to read the specifications

139-106-119 mm geometry

The dimensions 139-106-119 mm represent the width of the ski at the tip, underfoot and at the tail.

The most important figure defining the character of this model is the 106 mm waist. This width places the Ripstick 106 W firmly in the freeride category and provides a larger platform for skiing in soft and deeper snow.

The 139 mm tip and 119 mm tail complete the model’s freeride geometry. The supplied technical specifications list 139-106-119 mm as the dimensions for the model.

15.8–18.8 m radius

The manufacturer specifies:

  • 154 cm – 15.8 m

  • 161 cm – 16.8 m

  • 168 cm – 17.8 m

  • 175 cm – 18.8 m

As ski length increases, the nominal radius also increases consistently. The shorter versions therefore have a smaller nominal radius, while the longer lengths are geometrically associated with longer turns.

When choosing the appropriate length of a freeride ski, it is important to consider not only the skier’s height but also body weight, technical ability, skiing speed, preferred terrain and the desired balance between stability and maneuverability.

Lengths 154–175 cm

Ripstick 106 W Flat are available in:

  • 154 cm

  • 161 cm

  • 168 cm

  • 175 cm

This range allows the appropriate version to be selected for different physical characteristics and skiing preferences. On a wide freeride ski, length has a significant influence not only on maneuverability but also on the overall ski surface and its behavior in deeper snow.

Weight 1585 ± 50 g

The manufacturer specifies:

  • 1585 ± 50 g – one ski in 168 cm

It is important to note that this figure applies to one ski, not a pair. The manufacturer also specifies a tolerance of ± 50 g.

Specific weights for the other lengths are not included in the supplied technical information and should therefore not be calculated or estimated.

Technologies

Amphibio Profile

Ripstick 106 W use an Amphibio Profile, specified in the technical information as a combination of Camber + Rocker.

This profile is one of the characteristic construction features of the model. However, the supplied specifications do not state the exact length or proportion of the individual camber and rocker sections, so these values should not be specified without additional manufacturer information.

Carbon Deck Technology

One of the main construction elements of the model is Carbon Deck Technology. This technology is listed as part of the complete construction together with Carbon Rods, UD Carbon, Flax Fiber and Tubelite Woodcore.

The available information therefore confirms extensive use of carbon elements within the construction. However, the exact arrangement of the individual Carbon Deck Technology layers is not described in the supplied technical information, so unsupported construction details should not be added.

Carbon Rods

The construction incorporates Carbon Rods, carbon elements integrated into the ski’s construction.

Together with UD Carbon and Carbon Deck Technology, they form another part of the model’s carbon-based construction. Their exact number, diameter and position are not specified in the supplied information.

UD Carbon

UD Carbon is another carbon technology used in the construction of the Ripstick 106 W. It is included in the official technical description alongside Carbon Deck Technology and Carbon Rods.

The exact amount, orientation and positioning of the UD Carbon layers are not specified in the supplied technical information, so these details should not be added without further confirmation from the manufacturer.

Flax Fiber

The construction also incorporates Flax Fiber. Elan combines this material with the carbon technologies, wood core and sidewall construction used in the model.

The exact positioning, amount and detailed function of the Flax Fiber layer are not described in the supplied technical information. It should therefore be presented as a confirmed construction element without adding unsupported technical claims.

Tubelite Woodcore

At the heart of the ski is the Tubelite Woodcore, a wood core used together with the carbon elements of the construction.

The wood core forms the main structural foundation of the ski and is one of the key elements of the Ripstick 106 W construction. The exact wood species and detailed internal structure of the core are not specified in the supplied information.

SST – Slanted Sidewall Technology

The model uses SST Sidewall – Slanted Sidewall Technology, a specific sidewall construction listed by the manufacturer as part of the ski’s technical design.

SST Sidewall works together with the Tubelite Woodcore and the other construction elements. The exact angle, material and additional structural parameters of the sidewalls are not specified in the supplied technical information.

Sintered High Speed Gliding Base

Ripstick 106 W are equipped with a Sintered High Speed Gliding Base, a sintered base designed for performance-oriented use.

The exact base material specification, structure and factory waxing process are not provided in the supplied technical information.

Flat version and recommended binding

Elan Ripstick 106 W are supplied in a Flat version, meaning bindings are not included. This allows the binding to be selected according to the intended use, skier requirements and ski boot type.

The manufacturer recommends:

  • ATTACK 14 MN, B110

The B110 designation refers to the recommended version with a 110 mm brake. When selecting and mounting bindings, compatibility with the specific ski boot and the correct mounting parameters should always be verified. Installation and adjustment of safety bindings should be carried out by a professional ski service.
