Elan M 888

When Elan developed their M888 ALU Alpine Ski, they added an additional level of construction that included an aluminum top and two separate layers of titanium. This all mountain ski is designed to provide power, in the same way Elan crafts skis in its racing division, through the dual layers of titanium. The extra torsional rigidity provided allows for optimum responsiveness between edges. The M888, with its mid-fat 88mm waist and 129mm shovel is built to float on fresh powder while tearing down the mountain.
The Elan M 888 skis deliver exactly what they promise and in some cases, a little bit more. On fresh powder they float with ease, and carve onto the groomed quite well for all-mountain skis. The flexibility and softness of the skis allows for exceptional control, regardless of the depth of the powder. Taking on nearly any depth or style of powder and terrain, M 888 skis are as much as any skier should need for the best and worst of powder conditions. Available lengths for the M888 include: 159cm, 168cm, 177cm, and 186cm.

Yesterday (jan 21), bought and skiied the 888 -(168mm) off Olympic Lady @ Squaw on 8-12″ fresh powder, on top of hard pack - traded in my Soly Screams (180mm). I’m 48 and this ski made me feel young - edge control and stability were crazy, my confidence went sky high. Best ski I ever had.
