Ski Selection Advice

The Atomic Bent 85 Touring Ski comes in 150, 160, 165, 170 and 175 cm. Park skiers often size a little shorter for spins; all-mountain skiers size near their height.

Mount any alpine binding; choose a brake wider than the 85 mm waist. Despite the product name, the Bent 85 is an alpine and park ski, not a touring ski.
