The 190cm Atomic Big Daddy Alpine Ski owns the light and white with a 125mm underfoot. That’s as wide as most fatties are at their tips! This powder gun is a huge, solid charger for the deepest days. If you like skiing all things big, then there is no other ski for you. This is the baddest pure freeride ski on the hill, but it probably won’t be the only ski in your quiver. That means when it dumps big, your powder panic will double since you’ll be itchin’ to step onto the Big Daddy. Atomic’s lightweight Beta 4 technology lends amazing torsional rigidity without a compromise on tip and tail flex, or longitudinal flex. What this means is the Big Daddy floats over the deeps without diving, and can still arc a GS turn on the groomers or leftover chop. Novices steer clear the Big Daddy was made for high speeds and big lines.

 

Almost an SUV
Definitely has an SUV personality. Take it off groomed, especially in the pow, and watch it do most anything easier than expected at almost any speed. The 190cm length makes this ski a little more versatile than it’s older models, but it still takes some good power to ski. If you venture on the groomed with the Big D’s, be sure that you are going mach 3 or else they won’t come around very easily because of the minimal sidecut.

Stable when getting high speed in the POW
This ski is the best ski I ve ever skied. Its stability in high speeds make you feel good…….and the flotation is awesome. You don’t have to try it…..buy it.

Tempting very Tempting- Bring your balls
I tried the prototypes after coaxing them out of the hands of the reps after many beers in Bozeman. At that point there were only 3 pairs in the states, but they wanted to see how they tested out in the Headwaters terrain at Moonnizzle Bizzle. The conditions were far from pow. I ski the older big daddies mostly and this didn’t feel much bigger. Straightlining out was effortless and they were quick in the pinches. Was impressed that they could lay down an edge and scrub speed when I needed to in a steep tight chute approaching terminal velocity. Will probably buy a pair one of these days
