Atomic Backland 100 Flat Ski 2023-2024

There are really no bad choices among the Atomic Backland lineup, but if your touring is a balance of winter and spring/summer conditions, the Atomic Backland 100 Skis is one of the best out there. The Backland 100 ticks all the boxes – light enough for extended time on the uphill, stout enough for spirited downhill exertions, just wide enough for a fresh snowfall and with enough torsional stiffness to hang on icy steeps. In sum, a balanced package that will make any touring day a great one.
