Atomic offers top-quality snow skiing gear. The Alpine skis from Atomic remain ideal for downhill racing as well as freestyle maneuvers. Utilize Atomic's Nordic Skis for cross country treks and skate skiing techniques. According to Atomic, the specialized sole of the Atomic bindings offers a tool-less adjustment. If you would like to reposition the Atomic bindings on the ski blade, a simple tool is required. Home Boy Ski recommends consulting a standardized DIN chart to find the best binding settings for you.

Step 1

Place your Atomic skis onto a carpeted floor. Lift the quick release levers found on the opposing sides of the Atomic binding. Slide the heel of the binding backwards.

Step 2

Align your skiing boot in the Atomic binding. Slide the heel of the binding forward to rest against the back of your skiing boot. Lower the quick release levers to complete the sole adjustment process.

Step 3

Loosen the heel and toe screw with a Phillips head screwdriver. Slide the Atomic binding forward or backward to adjust its position on the ski blade. Align the binding screws over the ski mounts.

Step 4

Tighten the heel and toe screw with the Phillips head screwdriver to fasten the bindings in place. Test the alignment of the bindings at home before taking the skis onto the slope. Make any adjustments if necessary.
