The Elan Wingman 86 CTI made a strong impression during the pre-tests in January 2019. We included it in the Proskilab test thinking that the ski perfectly fulfilled the criteria of this category. We were eager to have it tested by a team of professionals on snow in a side-by-side test with the other big names in the industry.

The ski did not disappoint. It earned a well-deserved “Best Ski” award... Read on

The testers said that the Elan GSX Fusion had the same great qualities as last year’s model but thought this year’s model was a bit easier to use.

Although it is quite accessible, it is not as accessible as the other models in this review. It is the balance of performance and accessibility that is so surprising.

In a category where we look for consistency, that is, a balanced mix of performance, comfort, accessibility, and versatility, the Amphibio 18 Ti2 has amazing qualities to offer.

In terms of performance, we only have good things to say. The ski is equipped with two Titanal plates, and it performs well and is calm in all conditions. Edge grip is excellent, it holds the line well, especially in long turns.

The Elan Ripstick 96 is well-known and liked by the Proskilab testers.

The ski is still “easy and fun” off-piste. It “floats immediately” in powder, pivots easily in all conditions, even in difficult snow. It cuts through crud well. A total blast in twenty centimeters of fresh powder.

On groomers, performance is good. The Ripstick 96 is playful and confidence-inspiring as... Read on
