Ski set containing skis Atomic Backland 85, bindings G3 Ion 10 Demo 100mm and skins Atomic.

Not every day can be a powder day (we wish!) and the fact is you always have to deal with a range of conditions and terrain in touring. Atomic Backland 85 is wildly lightweight and versatile ski designed for alpine touring. The ski is built with Ultra Light Woodcore construction, keeping it super light for uphill climbing. Further reducing weight, the Carbon Backbone runs the length of the ski like a backbone, providing exceptional agility and stable edge grip on the descent. Specifically shaped underfoot to allow for easier travel when climbing, especially on longer traverses, the All Mountain Rocker profile and HRZN Tech in the tip allow the ski to float in fresh snow and charge through chop and crud with less tip deflection. The cut-out notch in the tips makes transitioning Atomic's pre-fit skins a snap.

Features:

• Ultra-Light Woodcore - lightweight Poplar and Caruba wood keeps weight down but without compromising downhill performance
• HRZN Tech Tip adds 10% more surface area at your ski tips. For flotation in powder plus less tip deflection and better tracking through chop
• Carbon Backbone provides exceptional agility and edge hold with no extra weight
• Fiberglass - layers of fiberglass reinforcements for a smooth and stable ski that remains lightweight and dynamic
• All Mountain Rocker 15/85/0 - 85% Camber profile and 15% Rocker profile on tips - Ski profile for on or off piste. Early rise in the tip, or in tip and tail for total versatility.
• Directional Shape
• Glossy Topsheet
• Weight: 1050g (158cm)
