What's New? Atomic makes a ski boot line with removable toe and heal blocks connected with a sole length stabilizer supporting the lower shell.

Cool Factor: Separate boot components make for an easily customized stand height and ramp angle, and the stabilizer allows for more longitudinal boot flex.

Extra, Extra: Atomic Tri-Tech line offers a simplified custom boot with functionality aimed at enhancing control and overall performance.

Word in the Shop: "We think that the Tri-Tech boots have a legitimate new design that amounts to game-improvement technology. And we think that's what a lot of skiers have been looking for," said Atomic's Ed Guzman.
