888 Alu Alpine Ski

The lightweight Elan 888 Alu Alpine Ski tackles any lift-accessed terrain you can slide yourself into. As part of Elan’s Freeride Alu series, the 888 puts you in the legendary company of Ingemar Stenmark and Glen plake. Work tight tree lines or slash the groomers — every turn will feel like someone punched the anti-gravity easy button thanks to the lightweight, Ultra Thin Profile. Race inspired vertical side walls efficiently and directly transfer energy from boots to edges, while the aluminum top sheet’s progressive flex and snappy wood core create a massive underfoot sweet spot. Scrape the mountain clean of freshness and empty your buddy’s wallet after the next cash money Chinese downhill.

Bottom Line: Aluminum isn’t just for making sparks in the microwave.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.
