The Elan Wingman 82 Ti PS Skis w/ ELX 11.0 GW SHIFT Bindings is a great option for intermediate and advanced skiers who spend most, if not all, of their time on groomed terrain. At 82- millimeters underfoot, these narrower Wingmans still have the single sheet of titanal to bolster the strength and stability, but they remain agile and nimble as a result of Elan’s amphibio line construction techniques. By building skis in an asymmetric fashion, Elan is able to approach things a little bit differently. The implementation of their SST sidewall allows them to place more material over the downhill or inside edge. This boosting of burliness along the inside edge gives you better edge grip and power in the carved portions of the turn. They do not, however, put this material over the uphill and outside edge of the ski, leaving it more playful and flexible. It tracks alongside the inside ski very nicely and smoothly, with seamless transitions between turns and a lot of poise all the way down the hill. In addition, the amphibio rocker profile allows for better flotation on the outside edges of the skis, making it extremely fun and easy to maneuver and navigate through deeper snow and rougher conditions. For skiers who spend most of their time on the groomers who are looking for a damp, smooth and fun ride, the Elan Wingman 82 Ti PS Skis w/ ELX 11.0 GW SHIFT Bindings is your ticket to carving prowess.
