New skis, boots and accessories have arrived
in the house .... and we have set up the shop for winter.
Just when we thought that skis couldn't get any fatter
... they did! The new aspect of this is really the mainstream
emergence of the negative rocker concept on these fatties
... check out the Atomic
Atlas, the Dynastar
Big Dump,
the Line Prophet 130, and of course the Volkl

Chris Benchetler’s new pro-model, the backcountry jib-friendly Atomic Bent Chetler Ski features a traditional shape and a versatile mix of rocker and camber that slays hardpack and pow alike. Atomic designed this limited edition ski with POP Rocker, a blend of tip and tail rocker and camber underfoot. The rocker provides killer float in deep snow, especially when you’re stomping switch powder landings. Camber lets you carve into backcountry jumps and pop hard on take offs and increases hardpack performance at the resort.
The tip-to-tail wood core prevents this board from getting sketchy on you at speed and provides insane pop. Atomic gave the Bent Chetler a three layer sidewall underfoot for durability and edge grip at ski center, and used Half Cap construction in the tip and tail to lower swing weight, stand up to ski-to-ski impacts, and resist chipping. The wild graphic can be summed up like this: ADD topsheet, LSD base.
