ATOMIC Backland 80 UL Touring Skis - No Bindings (AA0030334)

Designed for those who measure their days in the mountains by vertical gain, the Atomic Backland 80 UL combines Skimo World Cup technologies with the versatility required for modern ski touring. Its Ultra Light Woodcore, made from poplar and caruba wood, keeps weight to a minimum to save energy on the most demanding climbs.

Structural stability is guaranteed by the Carbon Backbone, a carbon insert that runs the length of the ski, providing excellent torsional rigidity and firm edge hold on hard snow. The HRZN Tech Tip increases surface area by 10%, significantly improving float in powder and facilitating handling in variable snow. With an 80 mm waist and an All Mountain Rocker profile, the Backland 80 UL is agile, fast in transitions, and surprisingly capable when it's time to descend narrow couloirs or technical slopes.
