Believe it or not, this short review is been a hard one to write. Some may think it is because it’s been hard to get our hands on this particular model. Others will say it’s been hard because it is a difficult pair to ski with. Some others will think words weren’t coming easy at all at the time of writing the experience. A few of these will think it’s because this is a so great ski, there are not enough good words to describe it. The rest will think quite the contrary. All of them will be wrong.

The Elan GSX Fusion is located in the Race range for the general public in Elan’s scheme. Its nomenclature tells us we are in front of a Giant Slalom ski for civil use (out of the competition field). If we strictly follow what Elan says in their own website, this ski should: “offer the highest performance all the time, satisfying the more demanding experts in the Giant Slalom”. Then the key question is: does it?
