The 2027 Atomic Bent Decode with Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings is a brand-new progressive park ski from the Bent family, made for creative skiers who want freestyle range with a real all-mountain ski underneath them. Its directional shape and park-tuned rocker set it apart in the freestyle category. We paired the Bent Decode with the Tyrolia Attack 14 GW because of the Attack’s light weight, reliability, and ease-of-use for all mountain and freeride skiers. Additionally, ample elastic travel and direct power transmission function to ensure these bindings cater perfectly to the needs of demanding freeriders.

Why we like it:

A park ski that doubles as a legitimate all-mountain tool is a smart idea. Rather than a true twin tip, the Decode runs a directional shape, so it handles the rest of the hill far better than most park skis while still letting you spin, press, and play.

Who it's for:

Intermediate to expert skiers after a progressive park ski that can also take on the whole mountain. It's a natural pick for park riders who do not want to be boxed into the park, and for inventive all-mountain skiers who like a freestyle edge.

Highlights:

Atomic's HRZN 3D Park tip takes the beveled, contoured nose from Atomic's other HRZN skis and retunes it for park duty. The bigger story is the directional shape: where most park skis are full twins that surrender all-mountain composure for switch riding, the Decode strikes a middle path, still happy to spin, press, and ride switch yet far steadier once you leave the features. ABS CoreGuard armors the core against the punishment park skiers dish out, the Light Woodcore keeps swing weight low for spins, and the Resist Edge Park shrugs off more abuse than a standard edge. Dura Cap sidewalls pile on durability for the long haul. With a low stand height of just 17 millimeters, the 2027 Tyrolia Attack 14 offers an impressively close connection to the snow, delivering precise power transmission and a confident, locked-in feel. The FR Pro3 toe piece allows for a full 180 degrees of boot release, enhancing safety in a variety of fall scenarios, while the AFS (Anti-Friction Slider) ensures reliable re-centering and consistent release characteristics. Built to withstand hard use, the Attack 14 combines durability with performance, making it a go-to option for aggressive skiers who demand trust in their gear.

Things to consider:

Because the shape is directional, it is not the right call for skiers who ride switch as much as forward. Committed twin-tip park skiers should look to a more traditional park-specific design.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Park rocker gives it a slightly short feel for the length. Park skiers can keep their usual size, while anyone after more all-mountain stability can go longer.
