The New Atomic Bent Family Skis

  • 2022-01-21 09:49:39
    Chris Bentchentler needs no introduction. He has been with Atomic since 2007, and he launched his first pro model ski in 2008: the flagship Bentchetler 120. Since then he has evolved as an artist and skier, incorporating 14 years of design with Atomic and inspiration from his own art techniques that he’s learned along the way. 
     
    As Chris begins his new role as Creative Director at Atomic, they are excited to introduce the new line of Bent skis. The Bent Family includes a range of 85, 90, 100, 110, and of course a 120, which has changed from just an amazing pow ski in its original iteration to a more versatile and well-rounded ski. The Bent Family has a ski for every condition, and its main vision, like Chris’, is to connect imagination and creativity with the mountains.
