Atomic Blog Ski

The Atomic Blog Ski was born for going big. Its super-floaty 110mm waist and powder-munching rocker design crave fields and spines steep enough to make a stunt pilot giddy. A tip-to-tail wood core provides a stable, responsive flex and traditional camber underfoot maximizes edge hold and pop. The rockered tip and tail ease upward for flotation in the deep stuff, and a unique step-down sidewall construction places a half-cap construction at the tip and tail for durability and impact resistance.

Bottom Line: If you wonder how guys in AK ski videos stay in control on those near-vertical powder faces, this is how.

Does anyone have a recommendation on where to mount these? I just ordered these - the dimensions are right up my alley - but there's not a ton of info out there on this ski.

I have seen most people mount this ski 4 to 5 cm back behind center mount.

Little cousin to Benchetlers

I usually ski on the Benchetlers, but sometimes I want something a little smaller that still ski like a bigger ski. These are your skis. Especially if you aren't the hugest person and want a nice 'do everything' ski like a Benchetler - these are your ski.

If you have a hankering for Atomic, the Coax would be a good everyday ski. It will float as its 105 under foot and hold an edge on the ice.

This really isn't ideal for you if all you really ski is groomers and park, since the rocker chatters on the hardpack and it reduces effective edge for biting on the super hard days. And they weight quite a bit, which makes park a bit of a chore on them. If I were you I would look at something narrower and with either less rocker, or none at all. Maybe a K2 Kung Fujas or something like that.

I'm a 6", 154 pounds, advanced/expert/aggressive skier.

I'm a 6", 154 pounds, advanced/expert/aggressive skier. Would the 185 be too long for me? Would it be hard to turn in trees and tight spots?

It's kind of hard to answer a question like that without ever seeing you ski, but based on your height, weight, and skill level, it sounds like that would be the right length for you. The 177s are obviously going to be quicker and easier to turn in the trees because they are shorter. Everywhere else on the mountain though, you will appreciate the added length and stability. Also the turning radii's are almost identical between the 177 and 185, so in terms of maneuverability, they are pretty similar. I would go 185 personally. I think 177 is going to be too short for someone who considers themselves an expert and skis expert terrain.

No way! This would be a great ski length and flex for you. Remember not to sell yourself short in length when the line is tight and the snow is deep.
