It's a true do-it-all binding for those who want adaptability for whatever the day may bring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis binding is for advanced to expert skiers who want a setup that can tackle extended tours uphill and then charge steep, technical descents with confidence. It suits those who prioritize versatility and downhill performance in a hybrid package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Micro AFD with integrated aluminum Power Block enhances lateral stiffness and power transfer, and reinforced baseplate metal absorbs vibration and improves stability for a smooth and confident ride down. The 3-Part Power Heel maximizes shock absorption and retention on demanding terrain, and the full-aluminum Hike and Ride Switch allows for super easy transitions between uphill and downhill modes. Its Multi Norm Certified design fits all normed boot sole types.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Shift2 requires a boot with tech inserts in the toe, so check your gear for compatibility. It should also be noted that the weight of the Shift2 is higher than most pure alpine bindings, which may matter on long tours.  Skiers prioritizing uphill peformance over down will want to look at a lighter option such as a tech binding.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atomic","offers":[{"title":"Bent Chetler \/ 90","offer_id":51441208164648,"sku":"AD5002360|BENT_CHETLER|90","price":799.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bent Chetler \/ 100","offer_id":51441208197416,"sku":"AD5002360|BENT_CHETLER|100","price":799.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bent Chetler \/ 110","offer_id":51441208230184,"sku":"AD5002360|BENT_CHETLER|110","price":799.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2027-atomic-shift2-16-mn-bindings-ad5002360-1-ad5002360.jpg?v=1775757048","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2027-atomic-shift2-16-mn-bindings-ad5002360","provider":"Ski Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
