Who would love these

These skis are perfect for intermediate to advanced women skiers who love exploring all-mountain terrains. If you're someone who enjoys both groomed runs and off-piste adventures, these are for you. Their lightweight design also makes them ideal for those interested in skinning or touring. However, beginners might find them a bit too responsive, so they're best suited for those with some experience on the slopes.

Why I recommend these

Versatile all-mountain
Lively and snappy
Lightweight for touring
Handles variable conditions

Expert verdict

The Elan Ripstick 88 W Skis are a dream for any adventurous skier. They're versatile enough to handle everything from groomed runs to off-piste challenges. What I love most is their Amphibio Carbon Line Technology, which gives them a lively and snappy feel. Plus, the left and right-specific design means they handle variable conditions like a pro. They're lightweight, making them perfect for skinning or touring. However, if you're a beginner, you might find them a bit too responsive. But for intermediate to advanced skiers, these skis are a fantastic choice for all-mountain adventures.

Designed by women looking for versatility and progression, from front side groomers to back side bowls, the Ripstick 88 W is wide enough, strong enough, and bold enough to handle whatever the mountains dish out.

As a true all-mountain ski, you can take the Ripstick 88 W anywhere with confidence. It is the bridge between front side and freeride, providing smoothness and confidence under your feet in any conditions or terrain. Inheriting the tech pedigree from wider Ripsticks, it’s equally confident off piste as it is on groomers or variable crud at the end of the day. Optimizing Elan’s unique Amphibio profile this narrower 88 mm Ripstick is agile, smooth and easy to ski. The secret lies within the innovative Amphibio Carbon Line Technology for a snappy and lively feel while the SST sidewalls complement the TubeLite wood core for direct transmission of power edge to edge.

Mark was amazing!
5 /5
I can't say enough good things about Mark! As a complete beginner to snowboarding, I was feeling overwhelmed by all the gear choices, but he made the process so much easier. Mark took the time to understand my skill level, budget, and needs, recommending the perfect board, boots, and bindings without pushing unnecessary upgrades. Not only was he knowledgeable, but also super patient and friendly, answering all my newbie questions and giving me great tips to start off right. Thanks to Mark, I feel confident and excited to hit the slopes! If you're new to snowboarding and need expert advice, I highly recommend him!

Friendly, kind and so helpful. Found my first new board fit for a beginner. Seperate from Brandon’s great service, we will see how the board works out for me when I receive it! Not necessarily any reflection on service or the company. Just depends on the board and it works out for me. Looking forward to getting out and giving it a go!

5 /5
New to the world of snowboarding, and had no idea where to begin. Spencer was as solid as they come. He was patient, checked in as I navigated the last couple months determining if this was right for me. At the end of the day, I am super excited for my gear and get out there to learn this sport and explore New England more than I already do! Spencer is the bomb.

Ian is Awesome!
5 /5
I pretty much started&ended my day browsing at Curated website and exchanging messages with Ian. I had a different choice in mind since the size i was looking for a specific snowboard is now longer available. Ive been snowboarding for about 15years now and I'm pretty picky with my gear. i was just gonna get bindings here and ended up getting both the bindings and snowboard! -Jay Y.

Sarah is super helpful and knowledgeable!
5 /5
Sarah was so great to work with :). She knew what to recommend right away once I told her about my experience, current setup, and what I’m looking for. She’s very responsive, accommodating and nice. Even better that she recommended items that were both good in quality and perfect for what I need, but also the best prices around. She sure felt like just an advisor who is happy to help - not sales-sy at all. I’m not surprised she is a top rated curator - it is well deserved! I won’t hesitate to consult with her again on my next setup. You won’t be disappointed if you choose to work with her :)

Mike was an amazing rep to work with. He addressed a lot of my concerns and asked me questions to help me better understand what I was actually looking for.

So thrilled I was able to chat with him and grab some gear before Curated says goodbye. He'll be an asset wherever he goes next:)
