Atomic Backland 85 UL - Backcountry Touring Skis

Lightweight and Efficient Backcountry Touring Skis

The Atomic Backland 85 UL are lightweight and efficient touring skis designed for backcountry touring and intermediate to advanced skiers. The model is developed with a primary focus on low weight and climbing efficiency, while simultaneously offering stability and control during descents in various snow conditions.

With an 85 mm width underfoot, the Backland 85 UL are suitable for skiers who spend a significant amount of their time climbing and are looking for a fast and easy-to-handle ski. At a length of 172 cm, the model has a geometry of 117-85-106 mm and a 17 m radius, which ensures balanced and predictable behavior during turns. The construction is optimized for minimal weight. The Ultra Light Woodcore reduces the mass of the skis, while the Carbon Backbone and Carbon Fiberglass add the necessary stiffness, stability, and energy during descents.
