Atomic Backland 95 Skis 2023 Including Skins

Atomic's standout free tour model is light for fast and long ascents, as good as a dedicated all mountain ski going downhill, and impressive value considering the technology and design. HRZN Tech increases the surface area at the tip, reducing deflection and improving tracking in rough snow. The Carbon Backbone adds stability; the mix of cap and sidewall provides precision and forgiveness. The Ultra LightWood core keeps the weight down and tip inserts make skin use easier.

Shape
A directional shape with tip rocker means predictable handling and more of the ski's edge in contact with the snow, resulting in better grip and stability. 95mm in the waist is narrow enough to remain nimble and quick edge-to-edge and there's plenty of width when you do find softer or deeper snow and want some width underfoot. The 18m radius (177cm) is long enough to boost the stability, helping the ski track cleanly whatever the snow condition. The HRZN Tech tip further improves the overall handling with a horizontal rocker that increases surface area.

Rocker
All Mountain Rocker use a 15/85/0 split of rocker/camber/rocker across the tip, main body and tail of the ski. This mix ensures excellent grip and response on firmer snow and when traversing, with some rocker at the front for better planning in soft conditions and easy handling when steering the skis.

Core
The Ultra Light Woodcore is made from poplar and caruba to ensure the weight is kept right down.

Construction
Cap Sidewall uses sidewall from the base to the top sheet for controlled power transmission and great edge hold. The rounded shape adds durability as it picks up less dings and knocks.
