The Review - 4/5

I had a lot of fun on this lively ski. It rolls on edge very easy, and is a great for all mountain. I found it to be very easy to ski, and would absolutely ride the Playmaker 91 again. Compared to the Playmaker 101, which I already have been skiing, the Playmaker 91 is slightly more responsive on groomed trails. Overall, I really enjoyed skiing the Playmaker 91.

Who Is It For?

The Playmaker 91 is for the intermediate to advanced skier with a playful side that is looking for skis to explore the whole mountain on. With excellent versatility in any terrain, this is a one-ski quiver. No matter the conditions, this ski will put a smile on your face. Cruise groomers, slash through trees, and surf in snow - any skier can enjoy the Elan Playmaker 91.
