In addition, a new automatic ski-stopper mechanism that simplifies handling. ATK EVO are top class freeride bindings with a unique riding feel despite the light weight.

Strengths:
Quality, looks, functions, weight, adjustability, power transmission, the feeling of reliability, usability, adjustable release value in the forefoot, construction that does not collect snow and ice in the toe, the ride.
Weaknesses:
Based on my needs and requirements, I actually see no weaknesses at all, apart from the price.
Summary:
ATK can be considered to belong to the premium segment of tech bindings and with the improvements that have now been incorporated into the EVO models they are almost to be considered a game changer! The new construction for the ski stopper and where it automatically locks in the downhill position is really good. Nice to avoid the pesky "button" that was on e.g. the Freeraider 14. Then the redesigned toe part, which aims to not collect snow and ice, feels really promising.
Have these bindings mounted on a pair of G3 Seekr 100 together and ride with Dynafit Radical Pro boots. As the bindings are very new and I only have about 10 days on them, I will update the review later in the season if any useful experience is identified that changes my assessment.
