Elan Amphibio 88 XTI Skis 2017

FOR DUDES THAT WANT TO SHRED... AND BY SHRED I MEAN SKI LIKE A BAT OUT OF HELL.

This ripping ski doesn't mind speed and it's vertical sidewall construction will bite into the hardest ice you can find in Northern Vermont.  The Amphibio 88 XTI maybe every East Coast senders dream ski in January but it's also pretty darn good in soft snow and off trail.  Yea it likes groomers more but it has a lighter swing weight than the Kendo or Crimson, bascially this Elan is a serious ski!  Energy in the turns, grip, float and a killer stealth look - what more do you want for carving ski?

Construction

SST Sidewall - Sandwich sidewall with a layer of ABS placed directly over the edges. This construction gives the Amphibio excellent edge control and a super solid feeling underfoot.

Core

Force Woodcore - A full wood core is wrapped in fiberglass to boost torsional rigidity and power!

X Ti - A lightweight layer of titanal gives the skis excellent edge grip and stability. Additionally, carbon fibers are strategically placed to provide you with a super smooth feeling ride.

Shape

Amphibio 4D Profile - Rocker and Camber are combined in a unique way that makes skiing easier and more fun. The tips of the skis have a blend of both rocker and camber. The rockered portion allows for easy turn initiation, while the cambered side gives you incredible edge grip throughout the turn. It is truly the best of both worlds.

Additional Awesomeness

WaveFlex - A wave-profile is built directly into the ski for an unparalleled combination of torsional strength and flex. The shape of the wave creates an incredibly consistent, easy turning flex, as well as rock solid torsional rigidity.

Power Spine Technology - Elan places an interior spine the entire running length of the ski and reinforces it with carbon, this guarantees a giant boost in stability!

Binding

The Elan Amphibio 88 Xti Skis do not come with a binding. We recommend you use a binding that will accommodate your skiing needs (backcountry, touring, all-mountain, freestyle etc.). Be sure the brake width and release settings will work for your particular activity. Questions about what's best for you, contact an expert at TheSkiMonster.com.
