    2024- 2025 Gear

    I have a regular version of the Ripstick 96 and it serves me well in everything except boilerplate ice which frankly only a race ski would enjoy. I was going to swap skis with a buddy who has the black version this year but we never thought about until after we were out of the boots with beer...
