Questions fréquentes
Ajusteurs BorderlineOur Find my length tool starts from your height: intermediates about 8 cm under their height; plus 4 cm if you're heavier than most people your height, minus 4 if lighter. Example: an intermediate skier 170 cm tall gets about 162 cm, so the 160. We carry 144, 152, 160 and 168 cm.
It's for intermediates, and beginners ready to move up. Elan pitches it at skiers linking turns on intermediate slopes and ready for new terrain.
Mostly groomed runs. Its waist is 75–78 mm depending on length, in the 66–80 mm range we suggest for mostly groomed Ontario runs; Elan's terrain chart covers groomed to some variable snow, not powder.
Elan says its WaveMotion construction lets the ski flex easily yet hold its edge, for confident grip through each turn. It has no metal layer, so it's a forgiving carver rather than a hard-ice race ski.

Questions
Posées en magasin, réponses de nos ajusteurs
What length should I get?
Our Find my length tool starts from your height: intermediates about 8 cm under their height; plus 4 cm if you're heavier than most people your height, minus 4 if lighter. Example: an intermediate skier 170 cm tall gets about 162 cm, so the 160. We carry 144, 152, 160 and 168 cm.
Is this ski right for my level?
It's for intermediates, and beginners ready to move up. Elan pitches it at skiers linking turns on intermediate slopes and ready for new terrain.
Is it for groomers, all-mountain or powder?
Mostly groomed runs. Its waist is 75–78 mm depending on length, in the 66–80 mm range we suggest for mostly groomed Ontario runs; Elan's terrain chart covers groomed to some variable snow, not powder.
Will it hold an edge on icy Ontario groomers?
Elan says its WaveMotion construction lets the ski flex easily yet hold its edge, for confident grip through each turn. It has no metal layer, so it's a forgiving carver rather than a hard-ice race ski.
Does it come with bindings?
Yes. It comes with Elan's EL 10.0 GW binding (DIN 3–10) on Elan's built-in binding rail.
Will my boots fit the bindings? What does GW mean?
The EL 10.0 GW takes standard alpine and GripWalk boot soles. GW means GripWalk: a rockered, rubber-treaded sole that makes walking easier.
What's its turn radius?
The turn radius is 12 m at 152 cm, 13.5 m at 160 cm and 15.2 m at 168 cm.
What does 78 mean?
78 is roughly the waist width in mm: Elan lists 127/78/104, and the waist runs 75–78 mm depending on length. EL 10.0 is the binding, with DIN up to 10, and GW means it takes GripWalk soles.
Is it a men's ski?
It's listed as men's, but skis aren't really men's or women's: length decides. Anyone can ski it if one of our lengths (144–168 cm) fits.
Is it stiff or soft?
Easy to flex. Elan says WaveMotion lets the ski flex more easily while still holding its edge.
Do you mount the bindings? Do I need to bring my boots?
Yes, free and the same day at Richmond Hill and Ottawa. We set the bindings to your boots, so bring yours or buy boots with the skis; you check and sign off on the setup in store. Skis we ship go out unmounted.
What warranty does it have?
Elan gives a 2-year warranty on this ski. If something goes wrong, contact us with your order details.
