Atomic Backland 109 24/25 Touring Ski

Built for spirited, big mountain, backcountry skiing, the Backland 109 offers better float and more touring efficiency in a light weight, lower-impact construction.

FreeTour Profile uses more poplar wood, less metal, less fiberglass and resin to create a more harmonious flex pattern for lively performance. The 109mm waist combined with a lightweight HRZN 3D tip produces more float in deep snow and a full ash wood inlay provides added security under the binding. A poplar and caruba Ultra Light Woodcore offers the ideal balance of low weight and optimum performance. Powder Rocker delivers a pronounced tip and tail with camber underfoot for effortless, playful maneuverability in powder, crud, and chop. By utilizing more lower-carbon raw materials, the design reduces environmental waste and cuts CO2 equivalent emissions by 26% (compared with the Backland 100, 2022). Inspired by Chris Rubens, it’s the ideal balance of performance and weight that makes this the ultimate freeride touring ski. The FreeTour Profile uses less fiberglass and more poplar wood for more powerful skiing performance. Sidewall from base to top sheet for great edge grip, with a rounded shape for increased durability. This lightweight HRZN 3D tip uses a thin, perforated material for better float in deep snow. The poplar and caruba woodcore create a balance of low weight and optimum performance. The Fiberglass layers create a ski that is smooth and stable while remaining lightweight and dynamic.
