A true powder ski that will be a great choice to compliment your quiver.  The Atomic Bent Chetler 2014 skis are redesigned for this season & now even better float & yet more stability thanks to the SPB technology. Atomics Freeski range, including the Automatic & Bent Chetler have been redesigned to offer even better all round performance.  Featuring all new HRZN Tech, the new bent Chetler provides the ultimate playful powder experience.  Along with Chris’s input, Atomic have created a ski that not only floats better in deep snow but now means that you can have more fun & expand on the possibilities in powder. SKI FEATURES HRZN Tech – Atomic have taken rocker & expanded its horizons.  By blending proprietary technologies of ABS sidewall construction with revolutionary across the ski (horizontal) rocker, they have created the ultimate design for powder skiers.  Without sacrificing swing weight, they have added 10% more surface area in tip & tail & delivered less tip deflection & better tracking through chop & crud. Sprocket Power Booster (SPB) – Titanium or Carbon inserts laid directly onto the core in front of an behind the binding area, maximizing rocker stability & allowing you to charge the hop with complete confidence. Powder Rocker – A progressive profile consisting of tip & tail rocker with camber underfoot creates a supremely versatile platform that excels in powder, crud & everything in between.   SKI

This is aimed at the advanced to expert off piste skiers who are looking for an out an out back country powder ski for deep snow.

Until now, high performance all-mountain skiers were forced to ski in painted race boots that offered no advantage to the skiers venturing off the groomed terrain. The Burner offers a true advantage & benefit to the skier seeking the best blend of all day comfort & high performance without compromise. The Key change for the Burner series this year is the introduction of Live Fit. It has been featured in past Atomic boots & received really well, so they have decided to roll it out across the range. A Live Fit zone is purposely placed on the lateral side of the boot to eliminate common “hot spots”, while the medial side remains solid for maximum power transfer & edge grip. The Burners party piece is its Enduro chassis, which raises the stand height of the boot by 5mm. which increases the leverage of the boot enabling the skier to easily ski some of the wider skis that are around today. It also has Skywalk rubber soles to give great hiking traction all over the mountain. The liner of the boot is Atomics ASY Pro T2. This boasts an asymmetrical shape for great anatomical fit & an Alcantara lining for comfort & warmth. It has a neoprene toe box for enhanced toe warmth & 4-way fit. The T2 liner is thermo formable in 2 sections which is the heel & fore foot which will give the liner a better all round fit.  

Specification Buckles: RS Alu 6000 Buckles Liner: ASY Pro T2 Liner

Features: 35mm power strap, Skywalk rubber soles. The Live Fit is a great addition to a great boot. The boot has nice low volume feel around the heel & ankle area, that gives an excellent heel retention.
