OUR REVIEW OF THE ELAN LYNX 82 W
MANUFACTURER’S OPINION
The ELAN Lynx 82 W touring ski is a versatile ski specifically designed for women practicing ski touring. Made by the Slovenian brand ELAN, this ski offers good performance on various types of terrain, whether uphill or downhill.
Here are some key features of the ELAN Lynx 82 W touring ski: Dimensions: The Lynx 82 W has a waist width of 82 mm, which gives it excellent versatility on different types of snow and terrain. This waist size offers good flotation in powder while being narrow enough for good grip on hard snow. Construction: The ski is built with a lightweight wood core, which helps reduce the total weight of the ski for better uphill performance. It also features a sandwich construction that ensures good stability and optimal responsiveness during downhill turns. Rocker: The Lynx 82 W has a slight rocker at the front of the ski (tip), which facilitates turn initiation and improves flotation in deep snow. This also helps reduce the risk of catching in changing snow conditions.
Bindings: The ski is compatible with touring bindings with inserts, allowing it to be used with specific touring ski boots. Bindings are generally not included with the skis, and it is recommended to choose bindings suited to your skiing level and specific needs. Weight: The weight of the ski is an important factor when practicing ski touring, as it affects the effort required for the ascent.
The Lynx 82 W is relatively light compared to other models, making it suitable for skiers looking for a good compromise between lightness and downhill performance. It is important to note that the ELAN Lynx 82 W touring skis are designed for intermediate to advanced skiers. It is recommended to choose the appropriate size based on your height, weight, and skiing level.
