Like the Temptations, Elan’s offering is an all mountain ski, aimed at the advanced and intermediate markets who want a ski that can handle the soft stuff, while providing on-piste performance. The Elan Twilight 84s have done just that.

Thanks to tip rocker and a Trulite core, the flotation on board these things is immense, relative to its sidecut. Our park expert said ‘you feel like they’re a powder ski, then you look down!’

However, the Elans can perform well on the trails too. With Wave Light technology included in the price-tag, Elan has fused lightweight materials with high-end performance.

Combine this with a camber construction underfoot, for better edge hold and it becomes blatant why the Elans are on this list.

Further, with a cap sidewall construct, these things just won’t stop they’re so durable. A full wood core makes this model ideal for recreational skiers, who have athletic tendencies.

So, whether it’s powder or boiler-plate ice, the Twilights will never stop you having a good time on the hill.
