Specs & what they mean

What the Ripstick 106 W's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A 17.8-meter radius draws medium-to-long turns and holds a line through them; a moderate taper keeps entry manageable without giving up much grip mid-arc.

Stability & dampness

Built without metal on a tubelite woodcore, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 1,585 g it's a genuinely light ski, nimble and easy to move around.

Float & width

At 106 mm it's a wide, soft-snow ski built to float and plane more than to carve hardpack. An asymmetric rocker profile tunes float and grip differently at tip and tail.
