The LeeLoo is Elan’s answer to women who want a balanced mix of freeride and freestyle. It’s a directional twin tip so it offers an all-mountain approach to freestyle riding and from what our testers had to say, the LeeLoo holds up as a great all-around board that works they way you need it in pretty much any condition.

Riders that need that extra kick in their riding will want more out of the LeeLo, as you’ll need to push it a bit to really bite into turns. But the stiffness and pop keep it aggressive thanks to its classic camber. Overall it’s a good ride that will keep casual riders happy.

 

WHAT THE SBC TESTERS ARE SAYING

  • · Good all-around board · Stable · Good Pop ·

“It’s a good all around board. I could see it being really fun once it’s broken in. It has a good mix of stiffness and pop.”

  • · Work those turns · On the stiffer side ·

“I had to push it a lot.”
