If you primarily ski out west, the Ripstick 102W needs to be on your radar. The wider companion to the 94W, the 102 adds a bit more width for when you know you'll be encountering plenty of soft snow. A wide shovel and wider platform means it will more than cover all but the deepest days out west, while the Amphibio design and lightweight construction means it still remains plenty quick for zippering through bumps and weaving through trees. For those of you worried the wider platform is going to remove all the fun on groomer days, you can let those worries go; Elan's race background comes through clearly when you tilt the 102W on edge and find yourself smiling at how well it carves for a ski this wide. A fantastic 50/50 option when paired with a Salomon Shift, light enough to be a dedicated touring ski with a full tech binding, while still having enough weight and stability to be a dedicated resort ripper, the Ripstick is a ski you should be looking at regardless of what type of setup you're looking for.
