Elan SLX Fusion review 2016

PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments

The SLX Fusion already scored very well in this category last year and once again stands out for its excellent combination of accessibility and efficiency.
We recommend this ski for average to good riders who want to enhance their performance, and good to excellent skiers looking for an athletic model, but one which is not over demanding in technical or physical terms.

Review: Pros

• Excellent overall performance
• Exceptional turn hold
• Very consistent behaviour that gives confidence and encourages riders to go hell for leather
• Lively and enjoyable turns
• An easy to manage ski

Review: Cons

• An accessible ski which nonetheless requires some technical skills in order to get the most out of it.
• In particular, riders need to ensure they are always well positioned.

Manufacturer's remarks

The Elan SLX Fusion is a slalom ski for fans of pure precision skiing. Featuring numerous technologies such as the Powerspine, the RST sidewalls, the Laminated Woodcore and the Dual Ti (double titanal plate), the SLX offers precision, grip and stability in all conditions. With the Fusion bindings system, the first true fully integrated bindings system in the world, the SLX offer a more supple flex which means easier edge-to-edge performance, for a more playful ski des that hasn’t lost one jot of its precision.
