Hall of Fame

Glen Plake´s first signature model has been a long time in the making and with the combined experience of Plake and Elan, a ski worthy of his signature is born.
Elan developed a signature model ski with world-famous freeskiing legend Glen Plake was an honor. Plake is among the best freeskiers in the world and knows what skiing represents, which is why we broke the mold to create something worthy of wearing Plake's name. The Ripstick Tour 104 chassis is 104 mm underfoot and utilizes ground breaking carbon construction, to achieve what was believed to be an illusion; the perfect blend of freeride power and touring agility. Packed with lightweight carbon and Carbon Bridge Technology, it merges mind-blowing downhill performance with lightweight uphill capability. Plake's signature model was tested and confirmed with our C-RAIDER 12 tech bindings that are known for being strong, reliable, and lightweight, at just a mohawk-hair over 300 g. To complete the package, the Ripstick Tour 104 hybrid skins made with a mix of 65 % Mohair and 35 % nylon to achieve the perfect glide and grip ratio to support the ski in all situations. From the Alps of Europe to California's Sierra Nevada, Glen's ski is the choice for any freeskier seeking legendary performance and punk rock style.

CARBON BRIDGE TECHNOLOGY

Carbon Bridge Technology, is a revolutionary solution where a single carbon is rod placed on the upper part of the ski, provides stability, dampening, and vibration absorption through the tip.
CARBON BRIDGE TECHNOLOGY
  • 1 Carbon Reinforcement
    For lightweight, powerful rebound
  • 2 360° Sidewall
    For direct power transmission at lighter weight round the clock
  • 3 Tubelite Woodcore
    Strong, Light, Dynamic
  • 4 Amphibio Profile
    Easy turning & Edge grip
CARBON BRIDGE TECHNOLOGY
Carbon Reinforcement
Carbon Reinforcement
One of the most innovative designs inadventure skiing, Elan’s carbon reinforced construction is extremely lightweight and adds torsional rigidity to create superior performance.
360° Sidewall
360° Sidewall
360° Sidewall is a unique and effective sidewall solution to maximize performance while keeping the weight low. Pyramidal shaped sidewalls are positioned throughout the whole body of the ski, to increase vibration absorption and highspeed stability.
Tubelite Woodcore
Tubelite Woodcore
To create the TubeLite Woodcore, two super lightweight Carbon tubes are inserted into a lightweight laminated wood core. These tubes run the length of the ski following the arc of the side cut. They provide torsional stability and powerful rebound while allowing for material reduction of the core. The result is incredible lightweight response and stability.
Amphibio Profile
Amphibio Profile
Amphibio technology is a revolutionary ski design that integrates both rocker and camber profiles into dedicated left and right skis. Amphibio skis feature a cambered inside edge assuring precision, edge grip and stability - while a rockered outside edge provides forgiveness, turning ease and smooth transitions.
