The Atomic Backland 108 Women 26/27 is made for women who tour in big terrain: a big mountain touring ski that combines sensational float with greater touring efficiency. With its wide waist in the 108 mm class, it is aimed at advanced and expert ski tourers who feel at home in deep snow and want a light yet downhill-strong ski under their feet – for short turns in steep terrain as well as long, drawn-out arcs.
The FreeTour Profile uses more wood and less fiberglass and resin, creating a harmonious flex pattern with powerful skiing performance on the descent. As a reinterpretation of the original Backland construction, the ski reduces material-based CO2 equivalent emissions by 26% (compared with the Backland 100, 2022). The Ultra Light Woodcore made of poplar and caruba provides the ideal balance of low weight and optimal stiffness, while the three-dimensional HRZN 3D tip adds surface area for noticeably more float in deeper snow. Powder Rocker with prominent tip and tail rocker and camber underfoot makes handling in powder, crud and chop effortless and playful. It is exactly this blend of sturdiness and light weight that makes the Backland 108 W the ski of choice for freeride ski tourers like Amie Engerbretson.
