Intro
With the retirement of the Ibex line, Elan's Lynx series has been expanded, adding to the 65 UL race ski two models that the Slovenian brand says are for speed touring, the Lynx 82 and Lynx 82 UL. The geometry of the two skis is the same, but the UL is 200 grams lighter as a result of the Airlite Laminate Woodcore, which uses Paulownia wood reinforced with carbon fiber, in place of Laminate Woodcore with a blend of various types of wood. The result is one of the lightest skis in the high-performance light touring class.
