"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""These skis are a dream for backcountry touring. They’re lightweight for the climb but sturdy enough to charge on the descent. The HRZN 3D tip gives excellent float, and the Powder Rocker makes turning in deep snow effortless.""The Atomic Backland 108 W Ski is designed for adventurous ski tourers who demand both efficiency on the climb and confidence on the descent. With a lightweight Ultra Light Woodcore made from poplar and caruba, this ski strikes the perfect balance between low weight and optimal stiffness, ensuring we conserve energy on uphill pushes without sacrificing downhill performance. The FreeTour Profile uses more wood and less fiberglass and resin, creating a harmonious flex that enhances stability and responsiveness. HRZN 3D tips increase surface area for sensational float in powder, while the Powder Rocker profile ensures smooth, playful handling in all snow conditions. Built with a lower-impact design, the Backland 108 W reduces material-based CO2 emissions, letting us enjoy the mountains sustainably."
