Elan Playmaker 91 Skis

The Elan Playmaker 91 Skis have arrived in time for the 2023-2024 ski season. Perfectly suited for skiers who want to make the mountain their playground by incorporating freestyle into their lines, these skis are a combination of two of Elan's most popular models - the Ripstick and the Ripstick Tour. The Tubelite wood core and two carbon rods provide stability, while the lightweight 360 sidewall construction and trapezoid bevel reduce swing weight and retain strength. The Surf Rocker shape and kicked-up tail of the Playmaker make it lighter than many other skis of its kind, as well as providing excellent float in softer snow, quick pivoting, and an impressive carving turn. The Elan Playmaker 91 has been designed as a freestyle ski with legitimate all-mountain abilities, allowing for takeoff of off-park jumps and face shots in pow, as well as eating up bumps.

Style: ACYKFR23

Shop Review for Playmaker 91 Skis

Ben and I agree that the 91 is a bit stiffer and more responsive than the 101. It has a less loose feel due to being 10mm narrower. Despite this, the 91 is still highly maneuverable and playful, making it a great ski for side hits, rollers, park jumps, and mogul gaps. On groomers, you can make nice clean round turns, but initiating from the tip can cause the ski to fold. The 91 has a more eager personality than the 101, as it is more responsive and precise, and creates a more rhythmic skiing experience.
