Ripstick Black Edition

Premium style and timeless design are merged with a state-of-the-art carbon construction that takes the Ripsticks performance and versatility to the next level. Providing unsurpassed power and stability. The best freeride skis just got a lot more muscle.

SST - Slanted Sidewall Technology

The SST Construction provides quick, nimble and direct power transmission from the ski to snow as well as providing exceptional torsional rigidity.

Sintered Running Base

The special ultra-high molecular weight running base delivers excellent durability and superb gliding performance in variety of conditions.

UD Carbon

Unidirectional carbon bands are strategically positioned along both edges of the ski to create torsional stability which produces superior response and intuitive maneuverability at an extremely light weight.

Tubelite Woodcore

To create the TubeLite Woodcore, two super lightweight Carbon tubes are inserted into a lightweight laminated wood core. These tubes run the length of the ski following the arc of the side cut. They provide torsional stability and powerful rebound while allowing for material reduction of the core. The result is incredible lightweight response and stability.

Quadrod reinforcement

Expanded upon its TubeLite Woodcore, which features two full-length carbon rods placed in the core, adjacent to the edges and the shape of the sidecut, by adding two additional carbon rods to the center of the ski, one in the tip and one in the tail, resulting in QuadRod Technology. It delivers next level smoothness and grip, with a natural flex pattern for the perfect blend of playful, yet powerful performance.

Flax Fiber

A layer of natural Flax Fiber is placed in the tip of the ski to neutralize vibration and chatter, providing a smooth ride at high speeds and in variable snow conditions.

C-Ply™ Carbon Reinforcement

The C-Ply Carbon Reinforcement found in Ripstick Black Edition models places an additional layer of carbon in the mid-body of the ski to achieve next level edge grip and stability.

Amphibio Technology

Amphibio Tech is the complete, fulldimension asymmetrical ski design. Influencing both the profile and construction of dedicated right and left skis.
