Its 88mm waist makes it exceptionally quick from edge to edge on groomed runs, yet it remains wide enough to handle the occasional dip into the trees or sidecountry. Known for its \"soulful\" feel, the Ripstick 88 is a favorite for intermediate to expert skiers who prefer a nimble, intuitive ski over a heavy, metal-laminated powerhouse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmphibio Profile: A dedicated left and right ski design.
