The Atomic Backland 85 touring ski heralds a new era in ski design. With its new, gentle design, it will shape the future of ski touring. The result of a scientific life cycle assessment, this all-around touring ski is designed for those who crave adventure on any type of slope.

The ski's construction reduces CO2 emissions by 30% through the use of local poplar wood, less fiberglass and resin, and reduced-waste sidewalls. The HRZN 3D - the next generation of the original HRZN - features a wide, three-dimensional shovel that provides more float in powder and choppy snow for more feelful performance. The All-Terrain profile uses a new natural wood to fiberglass ratio that increases torsional stiffness and provides an improved flex pattern for more stability on harder snow surfaces.

Lightweight, stable and versatile, the Backland 85 offers unlimited options for dawn patrols, quick laps in the dark or longer backcountry tours. Just choose an Atomc pre-fit skin for the ultimate touring setup.
