hey i need some help. i know concepts kick ass, but what about the atomic rodeo's? i can't decide, cause i could get the atomic's for $175 shipped, or i can get the concept for $199 shipped. what does everyone think? is it worth the extra money, or should i take the atomics? are the atomics a good all-mtn ski?

Dude, I love the rodeos! I've been riding them for two years now, and they are by far the best skis (for me anyway) that I've ever tried! They started out a little weak, and I broke a couple pairs, but they've really strengthened them up now, and they ride so well I didn't want to ride anything else. They're super good about warranty too. I had new skis within a week!

BOIOIOIOIOIOING!!!

Thats very true
Stop posting gear stuff here

However, I'd go with the Rodeo's Think of atomics as the BMW's of skis. good stuff




I have decided to live forever or die in the attempt.

in my mind atomics will always be racing skis, whenever somebody talks about em i think of spandex, so go with the concepts and p12 bindings, you will not regret it


Yea I want cheezy poofs

the rodeos are pretty tight, i got new pair last year through warrenty from the bumps which sucked. Atomic really stepped it up with the rodeos, they added some carbon shit that made them a whole lot stronger, stiffer, and lighter. Also, they work well outside the park, which is expected for any atomic ski. I would say to go for the rodeos only because they're cheaper and awesome skiis, but ive never ridden concepts. So take it for what its worth and i hope i helped.
