Elan Answer & Answer Wide Snowboard Review
$449 Intermediate to Advanced All Mountain The Elan Answer is a great all mountain board that should be considered when looking at boards like the Burton Custom and Rome Agent. It is a directional twin with a decent set back so it can doulble as a freestyle or all mountain board. Like all these boards the Answer does nothing great but everything ok. With cambered boards like this you give up the catch free feel and easy powder ride for stability and pop. It's your choice.
