Beginners to intermediate skiers love the Atomic Affinity Pure. Atomic keeps the weight of the Pure extremely low with the help of the Densolite Core, which is made out of foam that soaks up vibrations, while still keeping the ski agile. To aid with stability the Pure has a Titanium Stabilizer that sits underneath the Densolite Core that improves the stability as you start skiing at faster speeds, and increases the torsional strength for consistent edge hold. The V-Shaped Body has a tail that is narrower than the tip to reduce fatigue, and make turning easier for you. All Mountain Rocker has 15% of the tip made with rocker for easy turn initiation, and the remaining 85% of the ski has traditional camber for improved edge hold and rebound. Atomic"s Stepdown Sidewall Construction has a vertical sidewall underfoot for a better grip on firm snow, and cap construction on the rest of the ski to make it more maneuverable and easy to control for the lighter weight or less technically proficient skier that is ready to progress quickly. If you are a true beginner that wants a ski that will help them improve rapidly, or the intermediate looking for value in a lightweight and easy to control ski, the Atomic Affinity Pure is a great ski for you.
