What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I toured a long, rolling loop in this setup on a morning when I really wanted to enjoy the scenery, and the stiffer boot sole gave me real confidence through the downhill sections. Tightening everything back up took seconds, even with my gloves still on."Some tours are about covering ground, and others are about letting the miles slow down enough to actually notice the pines going by. The Atomic Savor XC PG 35 Touring Ski Package w/ Poles is built for the second kind. Head out across a long, rolling loop, settle into a steady rhythm, and let the trail unfold into an open meadow without ever needing to look down at your feet to check your footing. That confidence comes from a boot and ski built to work quietly in the background. A high cut inner boot and ergonomic Backbone Cuff keep the ankle stable through variable terrain, while a stiffer sole adds control on the downhills without sacrificing the relaxed feel touring calls for. A stretch Quicklace system means retightening after a break takes seconds, gloves and all. Underfoot, the Posigrip base skips the wax entirely, and a wider ski shape keeps the whole setup composed through every roll in the trail.
