Atomic Doubledeck (D2)

Atomic Doubledeck (D2) main

Capable of automatically changing shape for better turning, the D2 is split vertically down the center about eight inches from either end and rejoined with rubber inserts. When you apply pressure during sharp turns, both the tip and tail spread apart by up to four millimeters, accentuating the skis’ hourglass shape and tightening the turning radius for crisp, sharp turns. The D2’s handling and stability are better on groomed slopes than powder and backcountry runs; still, consider this version 1.0 of a technology that will usher in a new era for skiers. $1,560; atomicsnow.com
