Elan Nomad Lite vs Elan Saba 117

How they compare

the Elan Nomad Lite leans more all mountain, while the Elan Saba 117 leans more freeride/powder. They share a twin tip shape — symmetrical tips for skiing switch and park; playful and forgiving. The Elan Nomad Lite has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Elan Saba 117 uses rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel).
