The Elan Ripstick 88 + Marker Griffon X 13 package is ready to carve firm groomers, thread through mixed snow, and take a detour when fresh snow appears beyond the trail. The Ripstick 88 combines a lightweight TubeLite Woodcore with Carbon Deck Technology and carbon rods for quick response and lively energy from turn to turn. Flax Fiber helps calm vibration, while the left- and right-specific Amphibio design supports grip and maneuverability. The low-profile Griffon X completes the setup with a direct feel underfoot, a 4–13 DIN range, and compatibility with Alpine, GripWalk, and Touring boot soles.
