I was thinking of getting some revolt 104s as my all mountain set up, but I noticed some people using it as a touring set up. I have a pair of shifts that I was going to put on my BC atris, but now I’m thinking of going another way

The Revolt with a shift would be a really fun 50/50 style setup. The weight of the 104 is within reason for a touring ski for sure. Yes, there are lighter skis out there, but that would be a good do it all setup.

I have no input on the Atris, but the 104 is loose and poppy yet holds an edge pretty darn well.

I am a little testy about durability, what do you mean by that?

Dont land anything big switch on the shifts, or at least crank rear dins/forward pressure, mine started beeing more friendly after this.

I do like the lightness of them.

I have a pair of the Revolt 104s and they are a really really fun ski. They are more versatile then you would think.
