Light, powerful, reliable – what sets Atomic touring skis apart

Atomic stands for Austrian innovation – and has done so for more than 60 years. The brand’s touring skis combine low weight with impressive downhill performance. Whether it’s ultra-light race models like the Backland UL or versatile all-rounders like the Backland 85, Sport Conrad offers you the right Atomic touring ski for your alpine adventures.

Technology for vertical meters – how Atomic touring skis work

What makes Atomic touring skis so special? A clever combination of high-tech materials and thoughtful construction.

- Ultra Light Woodcore: ensures minimal weight and efficient power transfer on the ascent.

- Rocker profiles & carbon inserts: deliver stability on the descent across a wide range of terrain and snow conditions.

- Pre-drilled binding zones: simplify the mounting process on many models.

Whether you're racing uphill or charging downhill, Atomic skis deliver the perfect balance of efficiency and control.

Which Atomic touring ski is right for you?

Atomic offers a versatile line-up across the Backland, Maven, and Bent series – depending on whether your focus is ascent, descent, or a combination of both:

For speed lovers & racers:

Backland UL models such as the UL 65 are ultra-light and engineered for uncompromising performance on fast ski tours and competitions. Every gram counts – for maximum climbing efficiency.

For classic ski tourers:

The Backland series, including models like the Backland 85 or 95, delivers the perfect balance between uphill efficiency and downhill stability. Versatile, reliable, and ideal for long days with vertical meters and powder sections.

For freeriders with touring ambitions:

The Atomic Bent series, like the Bent 100, is made for those who tour uphill to enjoy playful, floaty downhill fun. These skis offer lots of float, agile handling, and a freeride-focused design – perfect for powder days.

For female all-mountain adventurers:

Designed specifically for women, the Atomic Maven touring skis feature a forgiving flex, reliable performance, and low weight – ideal for demanding ski tours with a focus on control and downhill enjoyment.

Important: Choose a ski length that matches your ability and weight – and don’t forget the right setup with binding and skins.

Men’s Touring Ski Sets – Everything You Need for Your Ski Tour: Skis, Bindings, Skins

You want to get started right away instead of putting together every component yourself? Then a men’s touring ski set is exactly what you need. At Sport Conrad, you’ll find a wide selection of high-quality, perfectly matched complete sets for men – consisting of touring skis, bindings, and climbing skins. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced ski mountaineer: our sets offer optimal performance, easy handling, and outstanding value for money.

What Is a Men’s Touring Ski Set?

A men’s touring ski set combines the three key components required for ski touring: skis, touring bindings, and climbing skins. These sets are already perfectly coordinated in terms of weight, power transmission, and intended use. Many bindings come pre-mounted or are simple to adjust. The included skins are precisely cut and guarantee excellent grip during ascents.

You not only save time during configuration but also benefit from a technically well-engineered setup from leading brands such as Dynafit, Völkl, Kästle, Blizzard, Movement, Elan, or Black Crows.

Benefits of a Men’s Touring Ski Set

A complete set makes getting into ski touring especially easy – without compromising on quality or performance. Touring skis for men are typically stiffer and engineered for higher weight loads and force input. Binding release settings are also adjusted to male body parameters. This results in balanced handling, ideal power transfer, and high safety – both uphill and downhill.

Technical Guide: Choosing the Right Men’s Touring Ski Set

The right touring ski set depends on your skill level, body weight, and preferred terrain:

- Beginners: Solid complete sets with stable construction, forgiving flex, and easy-to-use bindings – ideal for your first tours.

- Advanced & athletic tourers: Lightweight carbon or Titanal models with precise power transmission and touring-optimized high-tech bindings.

- Freeriders & powder lovers: Wider sets (starting at 95 mm waist) with robust bindings and high float – perfect for deep snow and demanding downhill sections.

It’s also important to adjust the setup to your height and boot sole length – many sets can be individually configured or pre-adjusted.

More Than Just Skis: Additional Equipment for Your Touring Ski Set

Your men’s complete set is the core of your gear – but for full safety and comfort, we additionally recommend:

- Men’s touring ski boots – matched to your binding and movement style

- Avalanche safety gear (transceiver, probe, shovel)

- Touring backpack, helmet & protective apparel – functional, durable, and comfortable

- Maintenance tools – for skins, edges, and base care

All of these products are available in our shop – including sustainable options marked with our “Wir Denken Um” label.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is included in a men’s touring ski set?

A classic men’s set consists of touring skis, a matching touring binding, and climbing skins. All components are perfectly aligned, ensuring a balanced combination of weight, stability, and functionality. Depending on the set, bindings may come pre-mounted or be individually adjustable.

Who are men’s touring ski sets suitable for?

A touring ski set is suitable for both beginners and experienced tourers who value a well-designed, ready-to-use setup. It is especially practical for those who lack the time or experience to assemble components individually but still expect high performance.

Can I have the included binding adjusted to my boot size?

Yes, many sets allow flexible adjustments. Boot sole length and release values (DIN settings) should always be set according to body weight, skiing style, and experience level. Our experts in-store can handle the adjustment – or you can use our detailed guidance for self-setting.
