Atomic Race Tech CS 130 (2007)

This pared-down, ultra-precise shoe has a moldable foam liner and snug overall fit that transfers the skier's intentions instantly to the ski. gripes: For serious powerhouses, the CS flex may be too soft. The rest of us needn't worry. props: Aggressive, technical skiers will love the quick initiations and edge changes. bootfitters' take: Low instep volume, ample toe box. Narrow heel, ankle, and cuff, but with nice anatomical fit.
