The Elan Ripstick Tour 104 is Glen Plake's signature all-mountain touring ski that proves you don't have to choose between uphill efficiency and downhill thrills. At just 1540g per ski in the 180cm length, this backcountry weapon features Elan's Carbon Bridge Technology and Tubelite Woodcore construction to keep your legs fresh on long ascents while delivering the aggressive performance that made Glen a freeskiing legend. The 104mm waist width strikes the perfect balance for variable conditions, whether you're floating through powder bowls or carving firm spring snow, while the Amphibio profile and 360° sidewall construction provide the edge hold and durability your backcountry adventures demand. Designed and tested from the ground up by Plake himself, this isn't just another touring ski with a pro's name slapped on it – it's a purpose-built machine that lets you earn your turns without sacrificing the kind of performance that'll have you grinning all the way back to the trailhead.
