Atomic Coax Ski - 2009 BCS

The Coax is a ripping traditional ski that will not disappoint! If your looking for a non rockered mid fat, that can do it all look no further.

This was the only ski without rocker I demoed during my demo day, it was 183cm, and the conditions weren't the best early in the morning, but I still didn't like the Coax. It was horrible at short turns if they were possible, not stable, very unforgiving and inspired a lack of confidence. I didn't want to push it on this ski. They did ok in larger turns. Also the ski doesn't float very well. For this ski, I skied my test runs in opposite order. Two thumbs down.
I'm 5'8'', 135 lbs and demoed the 183.

The Caox 183 replaced three pairs and five seasons as a loyal Legend Pro skier. Paired with Duke bindings, these skis are a set of go anywhere, do anything, mountain crushing missiles! These skis won the 2010 Fernie Freeski Comp.

I work at a ski shop in Steamboat Springs CO. and recently ordered these skis without knowing a thing about them beside of the obvious. I was looking for a new ski for my AT setup and decided to pull the trigger with the Coex. I can't tell you how happy I am with this impulse buy. Shreds pow and tears up groomers surprisingly well. I mounted the Dukes on them and am very happy. The leverage from the Duke allows them to carve like a champ. Definitely the one ski quiver. If your a strong skier, I don't see how you wouldn't like this ski.
