Atomic Shift 2 MN Binding

Yes. The Shift 2 MN is Multi-Norm Compatible (MNC), meaning it works with standard Alpine (ISO 5355), Touring (ISO 9523), and Walk-to-Ride (WTR) soles. It is designed to be a true one-quiver binding for both resort and backcountry use.

The binding features an integrated toe piece that allows you to switch modes without removing your skis or carrying extra parts. You simply flip a lever to unlock the toe pins for touring or lock them down for downhill skiing.

Absolutely. The Shift 2 features reinforced toe wings and a lever designed for increased durability, along with an aluminum Power Block in the AFD system. It is built to handle the stresses of resort skiing while maintaining the efficiency needed for backcountry touring.

A single binding weighs 897g at the 90mm brake width, bringing the pair weight to 1794g. While not the lightest pure-touring binding on the market, it offers a balanced weight-to-performance ratio for skiers who prioritize downhill stability.

Yes, the Shift 2 is crampon-ready, but you will need to purchase the specific Atomic Shift crampons that are compatible with this binding system. They are easy to attach when you encounter icy or steep skin tracks.

The binding offers 30mm of Boot Sole Length (BSL) adjustment. This is helpful if you want to share the skis with a friend or need to fine-tune your mounting position.
