Atomic Shift 2 16 MN Bindings

Developed in close collaboration with Atomic athletes like Daron Rahlves, Tonje Kvivik, and Craig Murray, the Shift² 16 MN delivers pro-level Freeride performance in a stable and versatile hybrid binding that climbs efficiently and charges with full confidence on the descent.

The Micro AFD houses an aluminum Power Block that increases lateral stiffness for superior power transfer, while a reinforced baseplate with metal and rubber boosts precision and absorbs vibration. A 3-Part Power Heel maximizes shock absorption and improves retention in big-mountain terrain. The full-aluminum Hike and Ride Switch delivers superior strength and smooth transitions between uphill and downhill. Multi Norm Certified, this ski binding is compatible with every normed ski boot on the market.

Key Features & Tech Specs

3-Part Power Heel: At DIN 16, they absorb twice as much energy than Shift² 13 MN at DIN 13. The result: the binding stays on when you need it most during deep compressions, big landings, or high-speed chop yet still releases when it should. 3-Part Power Heel delivers enhanced energy absorption and secure boot retention, extending the Shift²s trusted downhill performance into the biggest terrain and toughest conditions. A hybrid toe pairs with an alpine-style heel for full freeride capability.

Updated Platform: The new micro-adjustable AFD features a single-block aluminum insert located inside, integrally supporting the AFD while allowing micrometric up and down adjustment via a central screw for an extremely precise fit with the boot interface. The result is a binding with 30% more lateral stiffness in the toe for superior power transfer.

Reinforced Baseplate: A metal-reinforced baseplate with integrated rubber dampers delivers strong power transfer and reliable shock absorption. Built for high responsiveness, it offers stability and comfort whether you’re charging big lines or working through variable snow conditions.

Alu Hike & Ride Switch: Made from durable, lightweight aluminium, this upgraded switch easily shifts between hike and ride modes. Its robust construction stands up to heavy use in demanding conditions, delivering dependable performance whether you’re climbing skin tracks or charging big descents

Touring Capability: The Shift² employs a pin toe construction for touring, granting complete freedom of movement during hikes. Featuring a simple step-in mechanism, effortless transition between skiing and touring modes, and swift access to climbing aids, the Shift² streamlines the process of reaching untouched slopes like never before.

Downhill Performance: By employing a straightforward lever in the toe, you can seamlessly switch from touring in a pin binding to skiing in a full alpine binding (toe and heel) with a 16 DIN for extra aggressive downhill skiing. Additionally, boasting 47 mm of elastic travel the Shift²s extended toe wings ensure unparalleled energy transmission and effectiveness.
