2027 Atomic Backland 102 Skis

We like the Backland 102 for skiers who want a directional touring setup with useful soft-snow range. It keeps the descent central to the choice without moving into dedicated powder width.

Consider Another Option If

Choose a narrower touring ski for mostly firm snow, or a wider powder shape when deep-snow flotation is the main goal.

• Freeride-oriented ski touring
• Ski tourers who prioritize the descent without moving to a heavier freeride setup
• Soft, deep and variable backcountry snow
• Skiers looking for a directional touring ski around 100 mm underfoot

• FreeTour Profile: Uses more wood and less fiberglass to support powerful downhill performance while keeping the construction appropriate for touring.
• HRZN 3D Backland: Adds surface area at the tip to support flotation in deeper snow.
• Ultra Light Woodcore: Combines poplar and caruba in a weight-conscious core construction designed for touring.
• Powder Rocker: Combines pronounced tip and tail rocker with camber underfoot for maneuverability in powder and changing snow.
• Dura Cap Sidewall: Combines sidewall construction with a rounded cap design for edge grip and durability.
