For the ladies who want a light, lively, and flickable wide ski for soft snow, look no further than the Elan Ripstick 106 W. The Ripstick 106 W is the perfect solution for women who want a wider ski for soft snow days, but don't want any extra heft or bulk. We always find the Ripsticks to feel narrower than they are. They feel more nimble and agile, which is the perfect combination on a wider ski for better versatility when dealing with tight terrain. The Amphibio rocker profile designates a specific left and right ski, with the outside edge of each ski having more rocker for maneuverability and better turn linkage and a longer effective edge along the inside edge for better grip. On snow, this ski feels extraordinarily quick and nimble. A ski this wide shouldn't carve as well as it does, but it does. We love this as an option for women who want something with good skiability and that isn't prohibitively hard to flex into. Despite being a bigger ski, it doesn't toss you around and feel bulky, with the lighter weight and nimble ride. We think the Ripstick 106 W is a great option as a first wider ski for progressing ladies, or for any rider looking for a wide, soft snow-oriented ski that doesn't feel hard to ski.
