Perks
Atomic has set the standard for environmentally conscious ski production. By changing the manner in which Nomad Renu skis are produced Atomic leaves a smaller carbon footprint than many of its competitors. Also, these skis have a great retro look to them, devoid of the flashy, bright-colored designs seen on models by other makers.
Sacrifices
Nomad Renu skis are advertised as all-mountain--and certainly qualify for on or off piste skiing--but tend to ride a little slower than most modern skis. If being purchased for recreational skiing, this model is an excellent choice. For competition-oriented skiers, however, the Nomad Renu may not give the necessary extra advantage .
Bottom Line
The Atomic Nomad Renu is an excellent ski for recreational use that combines an all-purpose design with one of the most environmentally sound products in its class.
