The Atomic Backland 65 UL 26/27 is made for ski mountaineers who count every gram on the mountain – whether in skimo races, on speed tours or on long climbs with plenty of vertical. Developed in close cooperation with Atomic's World Cup athletes, it weighs in at just 670 g at 161 cm, making it one of the lightest touring skis in its class. Despite the radical weight savings, it remains remarkably smooth and stable, so you can rely on it on the descent as well.
This is made possible by the combination of the Ultra Light Woodcore, Carbon Backbone and Carbon Fiberglass: it keeps weight to a minimum while delivering high torsional stiffness and direct power transfer. The All-Mountain Rocker (15/85/0) and the HRZN Tech tip improve float and handling in chopped-up snow, while the cut-out notch in the tip lets you fix your skins in seconds during races. The World Cup base finish and the precise edge tuning (87°/0.8°) complete the race setup – there is a reason Atomic's World Cup skimo team trusts exactly this ski.
