Intro
Ripstick is a complete line of modern, freeride touring skis that brings you competition-level performance. The Black Edition is the touring collection with the absolute highest freeride performance, featuring an elegant black design and tons of carbon fiber in its sandwich construction. It's a great ski for demanding skiers who love to stand out and are looking for a timeless yet trendy design. Not a lightweight ski, it focuses more on great grip on packed snow and other terrain where lighter skis struggle. You just need to be willing to take on a bit more weight that the base model.
