I wonder if those news Bent Chetler 110s are more like the current 120s or 100s. Hoping for a slimmed-down version of the 120s...

I had a pro deal through Amer the last couple years. The cost savings are like 20% and the gear you want is not usually included in the deal.

Yup. It's a fucking quad toe with a 16-din spring. Count me out.
On a lighter note, they're getting even weirder on the race side:
This is what Mikaela and Goggia have been skiing on this year; Atomic men were about 50/50 on these at birds of prey last weekend, but I suppose it has more to do with running older speed skis that already have a binding. It's a marker Comp 30 toe, even the mount pattern and afd are identical. If I had to guess I would say they designed it for Hirscher since he ran markers on his atomics all the time and are just now getting it out there. I'm glad to see them move on from the VIST toe, but I have a hard time seeing this as an actual improvement.

Oh man Bent Chet 110!!! The automatic 109 replacement I’ve been waiting for for years!! Pumped!
Do I detect a lot of anger flowing around this place? Kind of like a pubescent volatility, some angst, a lot of I'm-sixteen-and-angry-at-my-father syndrome?
fuck that noise.
gmen.

The new Salomon Strive toe is meant to be GW and Alpine only, price point option. No MNC.

As a race geek note, anyone notice Hirscher is skiing Langes and Looks on his new ski company offerings.
How bad does the Atomic race binding have to be to make old Markers your choice to replace it?what's orange and looks good on hippies?

If I had a dollar for every time capitalism was blamed for problems caused by the government I'd be a rich fat film maker in a baseball hat.

Most of the racers I know prefer the old marker race bindings to anyone else’s.
Re: Bentchetler 110; What took so long? This ski should have come out with the Bentchetler 100.

Hirscher started using the Marker EPS bindings in 2014 (as well as the Marker piston plates). He grew up skiing Markers on his Blizzards until he switched to Atomic. Mikaela maybe used them the year after. Atomic then essentially made their own version of the binding which is pretty much what all WC athletes use on their tech skis now if they ski on Salomon or Atomic. Speed is a different story. It’s all about energy transmission and grip. Those full metal AFD EPS bindings are like no other. Kristofferson is now using these markers on his GS and SL skis as well.

I agree with Sessiøn - Blogs should have been kept around - what a fun ski!
