The Vantage 86 Ti delivers perfectly on the Atomic mantra of ‘lighter, stronger, better’. It’s a powerful all mountain ski that’s equally at home laying down precise carves as it is smashing through crud & flowing through powder. Prolite is the key ethos, a built-up chassis that is strong & powerful along the edges & noticeably slimmer & lighter in central areas towards the tip & tail. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type The 86 Ti is an all mountain ski that uses the construction of a piste ski with the shape of an all terrain model. This means it can eat motorway miles of piste all day long, or charge through the off-piste from first lift to last. If it has a weaker point, it’s probably a bit stiff & not wide enough for skiers set on hunting fresh snow all the time. It’s much better suited to all the realists out there who know all mountain skiing is about versatility, & that’s what the 86 Ti is about, with its good grip for when the conditions are firmer & power for when it opens up, whether you are on piste or off. Skier Type Advanced & expert skiers will benefit most from the grip levels & power, though heavier or more aggressive intermediates will enjoy this if they are prepared to work the ski a bit. It isn’t a demanding ski to use, which is a big bonus when skiing off piste. But there’s no point buying it if you aren’t going to push it because when you let the speed creep, you start to realise how good it is. It will ride an edge through pretty much anything, feeling totally stable, encouraging you to hold the turn longer & work the ski more. Think skiers who need stability for charging on piste & the width & shape for skiing away from the trails. Overview Shape 86mm in the waist is about as wide you’d go using a piste construction & Atomic have got this mix of width & performance to work really well. Add in a longish radius & you have a ski that will feel stable & solid in any condition. The contact points are only set back a little in the tip & tail. This helps with forgiveness when the snow is softer or trickier without affecting the hard snow performance. Rocker All Mountain Rocker uses 10/90 split of tip rocker to camber. The relatively small amount of rocker helps with turn initiation & control in unpisted & soft conditions, without affecting the camber which provides the grip & response on firmer snow. Core The Power Woodcore is a mix of ash & poplar, producing a sporty, dynamic core that has plenty of stability & vibration dampening at speed. This is reinforced with Titantium Tank Mesh & further enhanced with the energy Backbone (see below). Construction Prolite keeps the weight down without affecting the performance by adopting clever build techniques. Full Sidewall ensures the best energy transmission & the strongest possible grip. Key Features Prolite Prolite is all about keeping the weight down without affecting the performance, achieved by using exactly the right amount of material in the right places & removing it where it isn’t needed. This creates interesting profiles such as the milled-out areas through the centre of the ski that save weight but use tougher materials so strength isn’t compromised & the built-up areas along the edges that transmit power so effectively. Titantium Tank Mesh A layer of super rigid, woven mesh reinforced with increases strength across the ski without adding weight.energy Backbone An ultra-light insert that runs the length of the ski like a backbone, this provides exceptional agility without extra weight.e B tester’s comments: Mark (Trainer) The one-ski solution for all mountain skiers who want it all, without compromise.

Atomic went back to the drawing board for the new Vantage 90 Ti W to create a ski that is lighter & stronger. Prolite construction uses the slimmest chassis possible, built around a central layer of Titanium Tank Mesh, so thin this titanium can be seen inside. In areas like the edges where strength is required, energy Backbone reinforces the build. The result is more versatility, with added power & grip on marked runs & more stability off piste. Tester’s comments: Florrie (Covent Garden) I really loved how they’ve blended lightness with stiffness to create a ski that is manoeuvrable but has punchy, agile handling. ...

The Vantage 95 has replaced the award winning Theory, a tricky act to follow but it does so with ease. It retains the essential
