This model offers a three-position Variozone system and a very functional DIN range.
Its Variozone 4 system provides two adjustment positions forward of center and one behind, and it includes the mechanical AFD, which we favor over a fixed AFD. Like the Xentrix 6.14 (DIN 6-14), the 4.12 offers the locked or active upward-toe-release switch. This has the best blend of Atomic’s features and a practical adjustment range.
PRO/BRO: “In skiercross it’s a pounding the whole way down, and I can’t afford the binding coming off - but if it needs to, I know it will.” –Eric Archer, 2001 Champion, GBSC World Tour of Skiercross While Atomic bindings can be mounted on any ski, several Atomic skis are predrilled for Atomic bindings. In the “active” mode, the toe allows upward release as well as lateral, tipping the bias toward release. In the Race and Xentrix lines, a “locked” toe setting allows only lateral toe release, which some skiers prefer for high-impact skiing. The DIN was set correctly as far as i can tell. I slid half way down the trail on my back, broke a brand-new pole trying to self-arrest myself, and wasted a perfectly good run. I didnt even hit a pice of ice: it just popped off. Once the distance between the toe- and heelpieces is set appropriately, the Variozone mechanism allows the binding to be shifted forward and backward on the ski as a single unit - forward to increase turning ease, backward to increase float in powder.Ītomic also lets skiers make another choice: greater retention, or more release? For example, some models have limited-release modes (for those who favor retention) as well as multiple-release modes (for those who want as many ways out as possible). I was ripping some high speed arcs from the top of the mountain, and one ski ski just fell off. Remember, this is an approximation and is designed to dial you in only enough to select a binding to purchase. If you would like a more accurate DIN that includes your boot sole length, please use the above calculator. Always have your bindings checked and adjusted by a professional. Variozone is Atomic’s fore-aft adjustment feature found in Race and Xentrix models. DISCLAIMER: This chart is for information only. The Fullflex plate system is designed to permit the ski to bend in an unhindered fashion.
