2027 Elan Wildcat 86 TI Skis W/ ELX 11 Bindings

The 2027 Elan Wildcat 86 Ti is built for frontside-focused skiers who like a ski with real backbone. With titanal reinforcement and a versatile 86mm waist, it offers powerful edge grip and stability across groomers, chop, and variable snow, making it a reliable choice for frontside skiers who want to be ready for whatever the mountain throws their way.

Why we like it:

It’s strong, smooth, and secure—no chatter, no hesitation, just high-speed confidence.

Who it's for:

Advanced to expert women skiers who want a responsive, damp ski that likes to go fast and make precise turns.

Highlights:

The 86 mm platform underfoot is the widest among the Wildcats, and offers a stable base for carving and charging through variable snow. Elan’s new PowerLine construction utilizes asymmetrical application of titanal to provide a finely tuned flex that keeps the ski strong without making it feel overly stiff. The unique Amphibio rocker profile gives you precision on the inside edge with rocker on the outside for easier turn entry, and rounds out a construction designed for total command on firm snow.

Things to consider:

Like all Elan skis featuring Amphibio technology, the Wildcat 86 Ti uses an asymmetrical design with specific left and right skis, which enhances edge hold and turn precision, but may not be to everyone’s liking as you do need to pay attention to which ski goes where! It’s built for confident frontside performance and responds best to solid technique and assertive skiing—so if you're after something soft, mellow, or overly forgiving, this isn’t your ski.

Fit & sizing considerations:

These ski true to size. Choose your regular length unless you're prioritizing quicker turn response or maneuverability, in which case you can size down.
