OUR REVIEW OF THE ATOMIC SHIFT ² BINDING

MANUFACTURER’S OPINION

The Shift moves to version 2 with updates aimed at providing even more comfort and confidence to users. At the front, the sliding part under the shoe has been improved. Known as the micro-adjustable AFD with Power Block system, this aluminum piece ensures increased lateral stiffness and better power transfer. Additionally, the wings and the stop lever, now oversized and redesigned, provide additional reinforcement, increasing impact resistance, durability, and reliability. The rear has also been reinforced following some user feedback. Despite these improvements, the weight remains almost identical.

The Atomic Shift 2 bindings stand out with their integrated micro-adjustable AFD with an aluminum Power Block system. This device ensures precise adjustment and increased lateral stiffness, significantly improving the power transfer from the skier to the skis. The ingenious design of these bindings allows for exceptional performance, even in the most demanding conditions, thus offering skiers a more controlled and dynamic experience.

Maximum durability

The Atomic Shift 2 bindings have been designed to last. The oversized and redesigned wings and stop lever provide significant reinforcement. This increased robustness ensures better impact resistance, enhancing the durability and reliability of the bindings. Whether you’re racing down steep slopes or traversing rugged terrains, you can count on the Atomic Shift 2 bindings to deliver stable and durable performance.

The ultimate in free-touring skiing

The Atomic Shift 2 bindings embody the ultimate innovation in free-touring skiing with their revolutionary ski/walk hybrid function. They combine the best attributes of pin bindings for climbing with the unmatched stability of alpine ski bindings for descending. This hybrid functionality allows for exceptional mobility during ascents while providing the stiffness and control needed for a secure and high-performance descent. With the Atomic Shift 2 bindings, skiers can truly enjoy the best of both worlds, whether climbing peaks or descending them with confidence and precision.

The Atomic Shift 2 bindings are thus ideal for skiers seeking performance, durability, and versatility, allowing them to push their limits on all types of terrain and in all conditions.
