Calling @nopoleskier - let us know if you demo.
Nice range of lengths on this model. Can’t wait to hear what people think about these!

A range yes, but may not go short enough for me. For a 80mm ski, I think 156cm is probably longer than optimal for me at 5'0", 111 lbs. My AJs are 148cm and 78 underfoot. I enjoyed BP88 @145 a couple seasons ago.

They should be awesome.. I hope I can demo them or they may be another ski like my Z-90's I just buy because I know they are awesome! I was lucky to be in on a discussion about what I liked and didn't like (not much) in my Z-90's regarding the design. Fun giving my 2cents! One of these days, I hope I can meet Cyrus in person to shake his hand!

This would be a great ski for a wide spectrum of NE/MidA skiers. Also, Renoun has a money back guarantee.....how could you go wrong?
They are pricey, so there’s a large market segment left out, but....they do sell demos skis and occasionally there’s a pair for sale on Pugski (where I got mine). Mine are always as fun to ski as the first time I tried them. I am happy Cyrus is venturing into the 80mm waist category, a category of ski that is really what every skier should own.

I chatted with Evan at Renoun Ski about the availability of 156 length Atlas because I did not see that length at their site anymore a few days ago. He said that they are already sold out! I asked if there will be any plan for future production of 156 length. His answer was that they do not have any plan for more production because that length is not popular one.
He recommended Z-90 for availability of short length. But I am looking for the replacement for my 4 year old Yumi. Besides I have Ripstick 94w and I love the ski. I was so disappointed that I could not try Renoun’s new ski.
I told Evan that 156 is not short length for women and there will be many more women skiers who are disappointed with no availability of short Atlas ski.

@Skipotter the new Yumi gets rave reviews from our lighter Divas unfortunately I"m XL over powered the ski and I do love my Z-90's they have become my 1 ski quiver but I am tempted by the Atlas 80's and I demo'd Liberty 96W's they were REALLY SWEET Ski on frozen in the morning (May at Mammoth) and super in the spring piles later in the day.
Yes, I spoke with them last week and heard the same thing. My main reason for communicating was that I wanted to know more about the ski and the difference between the Z-77 and the 80 Atlas. I was told that the Atlas is more like an upgraded and redesigned 77.
When I bought my Z-77 it was a leftover ski that was brand new, but had been drilled incorrectly for bindings and then stayed that way in the back of the shop for some reason. You never know, maybe someone will return an Atlas and it may become available to a new buyer.

Actually I was offered to purchase “B” ski Z-77. That ski has some blemishes, but new and good price. It is very tempting for me. Yet a big problem is that I can not return it if I do not like the ski. And I like the graphic design of Atlas better and wider waist size better.
Anyway I spend the whole last season wondering which ski I am going to get.
I finally made a decision, but did not work out. So I have to start all over again. I am leaning toward Stockli Storm Rider 85 now. I am also interested in Elan Intera because I like my Ripstick 94w so much.
nopoleskier, I will demo new Yumi at Stowe in December.

Hmm. Not popular, but sold out.
Say what?
Sounds like woman-blindness. Can’t see what’s right in front of them. Women need skis in our sizes!
