Product Summary
The ski in details
Whether going up or down, the lower-impact design of Atomic Backland 89 SL creates an all-round touring ski for racking up vert and moving fast in the snow.
The Atomic Backland 89 SL is lightweight and efficient on the way up, and reliable and stable with great flotation on the down. The result of a scientific life cycle assessment, the new ski construction significantly reduces CO2 emissions by 30% with the use of more poplar wood, less fiberglass and resin, and waste-reducing sidewalls. HRZN 3D – the next generation succeeding original HRZN tech – features a uniquely beveled three-dimensional tip that increases surface area for better float in powder and improved handling in variable conditions. The All-Terrain Profile uses a new natural-wood-to-fiberglass ratio to create a ski shape that enhances climbing and optimizes downhill performance on harder snow surfaces. A Carbon Backbone adds stiffness throughout the length of the ski, while the poplar/caruba woodcore keeps the ski lightweight and nimble. All Mountain Rocker and a wider 89mm profile allow for total adaptability on any type of terrain. This is the ideal ski for those seeking to move superlight through the mountains and rack up a lot of vertical. For the ultimate touring set up, choose an Atomic PreFit skin to match.
