With tip and tail rocker, a near-symmetrical build, 115 mm waist width and a lively poplar wood core, the Nomad 115 is a terrific tool for the big-mountain skier who employs a more playful skiing style. Our testers praised its nimbleness, especially considering its size. “I have loved every single one of Icelantic’s models that I’ve had the opportunity to ride,” noted Madeline Dunn. “This Nomad 115 takes the cake. It carves just as well as the skinnier sticks while delivering that boaty, floaty vibe you need and crave in the powder. Strong work, Icey!”
