Elan

Sling Shot Ski - 2023

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve ridden the Slingshot on park days and mellow cruisers, and it’s one of the most fun, easygoing freestyle skis out there. The Jib Rocker keeps things playful, and the construction holds up way better than you’d expect for a ski this light and buttery."

The Elan Slingshot Ski is built for riders who live for park laps but still want to float, pop, and cruise across the whole mountain. With a smooth flex and a loose, playful feel, the Slingshot encourages us to get creative—pressing rails, buttering rollers, or sending side hits without hesitation. Whether we’re dialing in tricks or just vibing through mellow runs, it’s always about flow and fun.

The Jib Rocker profile—rocker at both ends with slight camber underfoot—delivers catch-free performance and easy edge engagement, while the Laminated Woodcore keeps things lively without being twitchy. Wrapped in Elan’s durable Monoblock construction, the Slingshot can take a beating in the park without giving up pop or precision. With a versatile 86mm waist and a responsive 16.3m turn radius (at 171cm), this ski thrives in freestyle terrain but doesn’t flinch when we head out beyond the features.
