Atomic Shift² 16 MN Bent Chetler 2027
Developed alongside Atomic freeride athletes including Daron Rahlves, Tonje Kvivik, and Craig Murray, the Atomic Shift² 16 MN is designed for skiers who demand uncompromising performance both on the climb and the descent. Combining touring efficiency with alpine-binding power and retention, it offers a true hybrid solution for skiers who split their time between backcountry objectives and aggressive freeride descents.
The updated design features a Micro AFD with an integrated aluminum Power Block to improve lateral stiffness and maximize power transfer to the ski. A reinforced baseplate incorporating metal and rubber increases precision while reducing vibration, and the 3-Part Power Heel enhances retention and shock absorption in challenging terrain. The full-aluminum Hike & Ride Switch provides reliable transitions between touring and skiing modes, while Multi Norm Certification ensures compatibility with a wide range of modern ski boot standards.
