Elan 2012/2013 Skis

There's a lot of buzz out there about Elan's 2012-13 ski lineup. Typical for Elan there is a lot of engineering and design tweaking on their successful Amphibo series where the The Fusion binding system now got an upgrade making for a 15% weight reduction per ski. The Amphibio technology is now available on a wider range of skis including two Lightskiing models specific for women.

Actually 'Lightskiing' is a new concept Elan has introduced specific to women's skis following the simple formula EasySkiing + LightWeight = LightSkiing.

Elan has gone deep in their Touring series but keeping everything light thanks to the to the innovative Bridge technology - an extremely lightweight Woodcore construction and Fibreglass reinforcements. Also, for touring Elan is introducing the Adrenalin 16 hybrid binding to make for easier uphill while solid on the downhill.

For park lovers Elan's Freestyle series the TBT - Triple Base Technology - incorporates 3 different base angles in the top and bottom 3rd of the skis to makes take-offs smooth and landings soft.

That's a lot of new stuff and as the folks at Elan say:
