2026 Liberty Radian 106 Skis with Atomic Strive 16 MN Bindings
The all-new 2026 Liberty Radian 106 with Atomic Strive 16 MN Bindings is the heavyweight in the Radian lineup—built for powder days, big terrain, and skiers who want powerful performance when the snow stacks up. With its wider platform and Liberty’s refined construction, the Radian 106 blends float and confidence into one smooth, composed ride that’s ready for bowls, back bowls, and beyond.
Why we like it:
It brings real backbone to a playful platform. The Radian 106 adds float and power without giving up that agile, connected feel that defines the Radian series—making it one of the most impressive big-mountain skis we’ve tested.
Who it's for:
Advanced to expert skiers who want a wide, stable ski that thrives in soft snow and open terrain. If you want something that’s ready for big lines and variable conditions—but still rewards finesse—the Radian 106 delivers.
Highlights:
With a 106 mm waist and a tapered shape, this ski is built for float and flow. Liberty’s Precision Core mixes poplar and ash with carbon fiber and titanal to deliver a responsive, damp feel underfoot, while Variable Metal Technology (VMT) keeps the ride smooth and composed without adding excess weight. It’s powerful in tracked-up snow, steady in deeper conditions, and responsive enough to stay fun when you're linking fast turns down the fall line. Built around a DIN range of 7–16, the Strive 16 MN offers serious retention for aggressive skiing. The wide AFD and oversized toe pedestal provide increased power transfer and edge control, especially useful on wider skis. Its LDN (Low-Profile) Toe brings you closer to the snow for enhanced terrain feel and balance, and the MultiNorm compatibility means it works with Alpine, GripWalk, and even some Touring boot soles. Despite its tough demeanor, the binding comes in at a surprisingly light weight, helping to reduce swing weight and maintain a nimble feel underfoot.
Things to consider:
The Radian 106 isn’t your go-to for tight trees or zipper-line bumps—its stiffer tail prefers fast arcs and open terrain. Skiers looking for a super nimble or slashy feel might want something looser or softer.
Fit & sizing considerations:
Skis true to size. Size up for added float and big-line confidence, or stick with your standard length for a balanced ride with more maneuverability.
