Elan Gypsy vs Elan Nomad

How they compare

the Elan Gypsy leans more powder, while the Elan Nomad leans more all mountain/freeride. They share a twin tip shape — symmetrical tips for skiing switch and park; playful and forgiving. The Elan Gypsy has a flat_rocker profile (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel), while the Elan Nomad uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Elan Gypsy targets expert riders while the Elan Nomad is aimed at advanced riders. At $59.95 vs $699.95 MSRP, the Elan Nomad is the more budget-friendly option.
