Elan World Cup Junior

The range for racers, which totals eight models, consists of five models for juniors and kids who want to compete on the race track. Of these, two models are for juniors and three models for children who want to participate in the race. Thanks to the latest technology, based on the racing ski collection for adults, the skis are fast, precise and offer the best grip and control on the slopes.

Amphibio

Elan is the only major ski manufacturer to use an asymmetrical rocker. The outer edges of the ski are rockered or slightly more curved at both ski ends, while the inner edges have a classic preload or no rocker. The inside edge provides maximum edge grip, while the outside edge facilitates turn initiation.

Powerspine

This refers to a new racing technology that Elan is developing. The arc-shaped construction along the ski distributes the forces better and provides more stability and torsional stiffness. New, the ski has been reinforced with an additional carbon insert along the entire ski.

Response Frame Wood Core

The Response Frame wood core is a unique and innovative tip-to-tail laminated wood core, for direct power transmission and optimal torsional stability, thanks to the combination of a hardwood frame with a softer wood core.

Early Rise Rocker

Moderate rocker in the ski tip and tail. This allows skiers a harmonious turn with less effort.

Dual TI

A titanium layer is inserted above and below the wood core for reinforcement. This makes the ski stiffer and better edge control and power transmission are the result.

Fiberglass

Above or below the wood core, fiberglass optimizes the properties of the ski and provides a harmonious flex and good torsional stiffness.

RST

Vertical sidewalls that provide optimal edge grip and transfer power directly to the edges.
