2025 Elan Wildcat 86 C Black Edition Women's Demo Ski w/ ELX 11.0 GW Binding

Designed for women by women, the Wildcat 86C Black Edition is a hard charging frontside oriented all-mountain ski purpose-built to provide a precise and powerful experience for advanced and expert ladies. Utilizing Elan’s Amphibio Trueline profile, the Wildcat 86C Black Edition transitions flawlessly from edge to edge, allowing for quick yet effortless turns on hardpack, as well as through crud, chop, and bumps.

Why we like it:

Precision and power meet agility and energy to create a super fun experience all over the mountain – the Wildcat 86C Black Edition puts a smile on our faces every time. Plus it’s got a killer topsheet!

Who it's for:

Advanced and expert skiers will get the most out of the Wildcat 86C Black Edition. As a more frontside oriented all-mountain ski, the 86C Black Edition is designed for high performance, so those who tend to spend the majority of their time on trail will appreciate this ski’s power.

Highlights:

With the Wildcat 86C Black Edition, Elan delivers a high level women’s ski that blends frontside performance with all-mountain prowess. Added Carbon Rods, or QuadRod technology, boosts the ski’s stiffness and power, while an additional layer of carbon underfoot provides superb edge grip and control on hard snow. Additional material on the inside edge of the ski bolsters this grip and control, while the Amphibio Trueline Profile utilizes camber on the inside edge and rocker on the outside edge of the ski, allowing the skier the freedom to make a variety of turn shapes at a variety of speeds.

Things to consider:

Skiers who are still developing their skills may want to look for a softer and friendlier ski. The 86C Black does require a bit more user input, making it better suited to advanced to expert skiers who know how to drive a ski. This is also a very directional ski, so if you’re a creative skier looking for a ski that has a bit more freestyle influence, this isn’t your ski.

Fit & sizing considerations:

These ski true to size.
