The Atomic Theory blew testers away with its versatility. One tester said it “was one of the most playful skis of the test,” while another described it as “fast as f-ck.” The Theory owes its talents to Atomic’s Adaptive Rocker technology, which boasts early rise in the tip and regular camber throughout the rest of the ski. The tip allows for easier turn initiation and additional fl oat in soft snow, while the rest of the ski remains stable at high speeds and when edging on hardpack. Wherever you ski and however you do it, the Theory will be there to back you up.
