Intro
Atomic just released their latest collaboration with pro skier and artist, Chris Benchetler, and the Grateful Dead.
The new Atomic Bent 110 GFD features a limited-edition graphic designed by Chris, inspired by his latest film project, Mountains of the Moon (premiering this fall), and his love of the iconic band.

What Atomic says about the Bent 110 GFD:
“Designed by freeskier, artist, and filmmaker Chris Benchetler, the Atomic Bent 110 GFD is a Grateful Dead special edition of the Bent 110. It has enough stability to rip turns all over the mountain and enough float for powder days. Benchetler’s latest film project, Mountains of the Moon, served as the creative catalyst for this collab ski, with topsheet and base artwork inspired by 60 years of the Grateful Dead’s wild nature and eclectic energy. The 110, a narrower, more everyday version of the Bent Chetler 120, has HRZN Tech Tip and Tail for a playful feel in deep snow and a powerful build to charge through crud. A lightweight woodcore construction cuts weight for quicker responsiveness edge to edge.”
