SPEEDWAVE SERIES

Speedwave showcases the next generation of the WaveFlex technology. The wave pattern runs uninterrupted from tip to tail, affording even more torsional rigidity under the binding. These are definitely frontside performers but with enough waist width to be versatile too. Ski shape is a little unusual. The sidecut varies from 10 to 16 meters in a multi-sidecut design to enhance skiability and all lengths have the same shape. Construction differences are what define each model. Elan calls this series the next generation of precision.

WOMEN’S SKIS

Elan calls them the world’s most fashionable skis. Women’s ski research and development at Elan falls under the W Studio banner. In addition to good looks, many models now benefit from a special version of WaveFlex. The technology is engineered with a woman-specific wave frequency to match the needs in this collection. Bindings are positioned slightly ahead of unisex skis.

Graphics on this year’s line feature a lace pattern that pays homage to a centuries-old tradition of making lace by hand in Slovenia. Glitter and Swarovski crystals round out the package.
