Quick Overview

Double Deck VC Tecnology: *A 'variable radius' ski is easier to evaluate than you might think. It’s supposed to change its radius on the fly according to speed and edge angle, and the Atomic D2 VC 82 indeed achieves that goal seamlessly. The Atomic D2 Vario Cut 82 isn’t a race ski, but a comfortable mixed-terrain Cadillac / Porsche of a ski that will help you to make the most beautifully carved turns you've ever put to snow. *Atomic Double Deck technology is best described as two skis literally being built into one. The two skis, called 'decks', can move freely and flex unimpeded of one another thanks to the connecting pieces made of elastomers. The relatively soft lower deck (adapter deck) absorbs vibrations while remaining in constant contact with the snow, allowing for greater stability through turns than conventional skis as well as very smooth skiing. The stabilizing upper deck (control deck) distributes the power and pressure generated by the skier, reading those impulses and transmitting them to the lower deck. *In this D2 Vario Cut 82 version, the lower deck is longitudinally split a good distance down at tip and tail with a flexible plastic insert spanning the gap. As the ski flexes, the split widens, effectively making the tip and tail of the ski to grow fatter, which increases the sidecut of the ski on the fly. *By simply bending the ski, the sidecut radius can change by as much as 6 meters. That’s about the difference between a slalom and a GS ski. *The result is a ski that changes its shape to whatever sort of radius is appropriate for the turn you are trying to make. Atomic says that this makes it possible to carve a perfect arc no matter what size turn you are looking for. *We tested the Atomic DoubleDeck VC 82 and found the technology to be seamless. The skis were friendly and very easy to ride with no hint of the technology going on underfoot. *The result is a ski that performs and functions at a higher level than anything we've seen before.

Product Description

The D2 Vario Cut is the first ski in the world whose radius automatically adapts to the relevant conditions. The greater the pressure applied to the ski, the wider the ski becomes at the front and tail and the smaller the radius becomes, allowing short turns to be carved with as much precision as long, fast turns. The wider 82 mm version delivers this performance for effortless Off-Piste skiing.
