Elan Ace SLX Plate 31096818

Description

The Ace SLX Plate by Elan is a dedicated race ski designed for men who prefer precise, short-radius turns on groomed slopes. It falls into the Race ski (up to 72) category with a focus on carving agility and responsiveness.

With a 12.8 m radius at 165 cm, this ski delivers quick, controlled arcs, while its 121-68-104 mm taillering provides a narrow waist for fast edge-to-edge transitions alongside broader tip and tail for stability at speed. The integrated Elan ER 11.0 GW binding ensures direct power transfer and dependable release performance. Its full camber profile enhances edge grip throughout the turn and offers a lively rebound when exiting.

Radius, measured in meters, describes the ski’s curved sidecut: a smaller number means tighter turns, so the 12.8 m radius here makes slalom-style carving more responsive. Camber refers to the upward arch underfoot, which stores energy under load and releases it as you unwind the turn, boosting rebound and maintaining firm edge contact on hardpack snow.

Elan says about theAce SLX Plate

A combination of power and energy allows you to explode from one slalom turn to the next with precision on the SLX Fusion.Carving short and dynamic ski turns is an art like no other that demands a maximum level of confidence in your gear. The Elan SLX Fusion X delivers this much needed confidence with the use of Ace Arrow Technology. This technology combinesa lifted Fusion X binding system to boost reactions in the tip of the ski, with two layers of titanal, upper shaped in arrow that loads extra energy to the edges and camber profile, and lower layer shaped in inversed arrow shape for a quickest and most responsive entry and stability at the end of turn. The R² FRAME Woodcore with two-layer titanal construction allows for direct power transmission, stability and edge control and RST Sidewalls for precision. The result is an agile short turn ski that will link your slalom turns perfectly the entire run, without losing energy.
