Yea the only reason why your shop is selling for so cheap is because they want them gone. If I was you I would check out line or somthing if your serious about getting twintips

atomics twin lineup is dope. from bent chetlers, to punx, to blogs, this years stuff is sick. both punx from last year were solid, thugs fucking rocked, pimps also fucking rocked. I don't think I've skied an atomic twin that I didn't enjoy.

Why so much hate on Atomic. They are a big company, but that gives them more money and better quality materials to make their skis.

The twins are a super light ski but seem to be geared more towards intermediate skiers who want more of an all mountain twin rather than a park specific twin. Still a dope ski none the less.

dont buy atomic twins, my buddy snapped the tail off his ski landing a frontie wrong. They changed there manufacturing center to taiwan or something a couple years ago for twins and everything got worse from then on. There only good for race skis, which are manufactured in austria

....people in this thread are on some other shit.

Urban Punx were probably my absolute favorite park ski. Such a good ski!! Atomic makes great stuff, I don't know what everyone else here is on..

I was just thinking the same thing, I know like 5 people who ski atomics really hard, and have nothing but good things to say about them, they'd definitely have to go in my "top 5" for twin producers, just because they've got great pros skiing them (Bentchetler, Hatveit, etc...), and everyone I've talked to loves theirs. These people probably just hate cause atomic use to make nothing but race skis (didn't everyone?).

Atomic is one of the dopest companys right now but everyone hates on them. The punx is my favorite park ski ever. There warrenty department was amazingly easy to deal with. BUY ATOMIC!

Atomic makes quality skis, they are gettign hate on because they aren't a small company that makes only twin tips. If you get them chances are you will like them.
