The Atomic Backland 85 W 26/27 is the touring ski for adventurous women who want to ski the entire mountain – light on the climb, dependable on the descent and consciously constructed. Tailored specifically to the needs of female ski tourers, it weighs only around 1130 g at 157 cm, making long ascents noticeably easier. At the same time it stays forgiving and balanced, supporting beginners just as well as experienced ski mountaineers. Its lower-impact design is based on a scientific life cycle assessment and reduces material-based CO₂ emissions by 30% compared with the Backland 85 from 2021.
This is achieved with more poplar wood, less fiberglass and resin, and waste-reducing sidewalls. The HRZN 3D tip – the next generation of HRZN tech – features a uniquely beveled shape that gives you extra float in powder. The All-Terrain Profile adds torsional stiffness and, with its re-engineered flex pattern, delivers strong downhill performance in any terrain. Combined with a custom-fit Atomic PreFit skin, the Backland 85 W becomes the perfect touring setup.
