Fast and Light: The Atomic Backland 85 UL from the Fast and Light Touring segment is a high-quality, extremely light ski running ski - one of the lightest Atomic touring skis ever.

It's built a little wider than the Backland 78 UL and features the forward-thinking Carbon Fiberglass construction - for snappy hairpin turns and best times on ascents. Its light weight and exceptional efficiency and speed on the ascent is thanks to its Ultra Light Woodcore.

The All Mountain Rocker ensures a harmonious ride and stable performance on the descent. Thanks to HRZN Tech on the shovel, it plows through fresh powder just as confidently as it does through choppy snow and crushed snow. And those who race will be pleased with the cutout on the ski tip, which allows Atomic's PreFit skins to be attached and removed quickly and easily.
