Atomic Snowboard Reviews

Snowboard reviewed by Rich Ewbank - (0) comments.

The board that brought Atomic out of the shadows of Oxygen Snowboards into forefront of freestyle snowboard design at the start of the 21st century. A classic freestyle snowboard with a few extra features to bring it bang-upto-date for 2010, like All Terrain Pop Rocker and an upgraded T2 core.

Probably the best priced powder stick on the planet! Incredibly fast initiating turns, crazy power out of carves from a carbon and quadraxial glass reinforced core, and a shape that does the most exciting carves and offers some of the best float of any snowboard on the market. If you’re serious about killing-it on the groomers and slaying the pow the Banger should be on your shopping list. Buy the Banger and spend the rest of your hard earned cash on some snowshoes so you can access the good stuff.

Atomic’s top of the range freestyle offering at a price lower than some brand’s entry level boards. Loose and agile but stable and poppy, the Atomic Axum is the ideal board for intermediate to advanced freestylers who want to ride rocker but don’t want to give up on all that grip cambered boards offer. A suprisingly easy snowboard to ride in the pipe, but needs the edges taken down a little for kinked rails.

Atomic’s entry level park and rail board has a lot of features for the money. The Freestyle Pop Rocker profile and low maintenance extruded base makes it the ideal snowboard for getting to grips with rails, kickers and jibs. The perfect board to add a freestyle element to a quiver.

Who would have thought that the 2011 Alibi was any relation to the highly revered 2010 Alibi, let alone siblings. The only links between last years Alibi and this years as far as we can work out is the name and the usual high standard of Atomic build quality. Out of the window goes the Nomex inserts, CNC milled core and carbon reinforcement. In there place sustainable Juta fibres a sustainably forested Poplar and Willow core and wood sidewalls and the now legendary Pop Rocker profile. The Alibi has moved from a highly tuned freestyle Ferrari to a damp and luxurious off road Rolls Royce. Completely different to last years Alibi but just as good.

Entry-level snowboarding is one area that Atomic have got covered. If you’re looking for an easy-to-ride snowboard to enjoy in all conditions and on all the terrain a mountain has to offer the Atomic Vantage is a great choice. Cruise through the park or make your first turns in freshies, the Vantage is all about furthering your board skills.

A high performance freestyle snowboard for the ladies. Atomic have utilised every technology going to shave weight off the Polarity, so that you can get that extra foot of air out of the pipe or get that extra 180 into your rotations. Technology crammed into the Polarity includes a CNC milled core and honeycomb inserts at the nose and the tail, if it wasn’t for the bling leather topsheet I’d be worried this board would just float off.

Last years Transworld Good Wood winner the Fallen Angel sees some big changes in 2011. Camber gets replaced with All terrain Pop-Rocker to help with float in the pow and forgiveness in the park. However, the 7.2k sintered base gets traded-in for an Extruded 4.4k base, great for inexperienced riders who don’t want to be waxing their board every week, but not so great for experienced female riders who demand speed and acceleration in spring snow conditions.

There is absolutely nothing special about the Atomic Terminal what-so-ever. More like the kind of snowboard your local hire shop will be stocking than the high tech snowboards the park rats and pipe slayers will be using, the Terminal is designed to be cheap and easy to ride and that’s about it. if you’re a beginner snowboarder with peanuts left in your bank account the Terminal perfect. If you’ve spent some time on a snowboard you could do worse, but it’s probably a good idea to work on your bank balance and look at other snowboards in the Atomic range.

New to the Atomic line-up for 2011, the Stasher is an all mountain directional snowboard featuring Atomic’s S-poontech. S-poontech raises the start of the effective edge off the snow until the edge is engaged, after which the whole edge enageges with the snow, providing plenty of hold on ice when you’re carving but catch free straightlining when you want to point and go. If you’re after a charging all-mountain board to hit the pow in the morning and the pipe in the afternoon, on a budget, the Stasher could be a wise choice.

The Atomic Axum is an extremely versatile freestyle snowboard. Playfull and forgiving without being feeble, the Axum will fill you with confidence. Great value for money and extremely capable in and out of the park.

Explosive in the Pipe, unfaultering contol and pop of big booters and impressive hold through carves. The Alibi is an all-mountain freestyle weapon that sits with the best boards on the market. Atomic should be charging twice the price for the Alibi!

Don’t let the price decieve you.. you get a lot of bang for your buck with the Atomic Fallen Angel. A 7200 sintered base, CNC milled tip-to-tail wood core and twin progressive sidecut… damn this board would be a steal at twice the price. I forgot to mention that the Fallen Angel won the 2009/2010 Transworld Good Wood award for the best women’s snowboard under $400.

Voted Future Snowboarding Magazine’s best women’s board for 2010, the Atomic Polarity will take strong female riders that little bit further in the Pipe, Park or backcountry.

Mellow laps through the park or the first sketch turns on the beginners hill. A perfect board for beginners through to intermediates.

The snowboard that made Atomic’s reputation as a serious snowboard manufacturer is back. A 7200 sintered base, tip to tail poplar core and park edge bevel all for a price that most manfacturers snowboard ranges start. Beginners and experienced freestylers alike will have a great time riding the Atomic Hatchet. Oh… and the skulls are back for 2010!

A freeride rocker, tapered shape and Triarc sidecut radius designed to give increased control in deep snow and tight trees but stable during straight lines, Atomic have made a real freeride Banger.

For the backcountry explorers who need a snowboard that goes up mountains as well as it goes down them. The poacher is a split freeride snowboard with a cheeky swallow tail to give you that extra bit of float in the deep stuff.
