Atomic Backland 88 W 2026 – Women's Touring Skis

Gain elevation and fully enjoy the descent with the Atomic Backland 88 W 2026. Designed for ski touring on varied terrain, they combine a lightweight construction, a float-enhancing tip, and a profile designed to maintain stability and versatility. With a reference weight of 1,200 g per 162 cm ski, this model is aimed at female skiers who want to reduce the weight of their equipment without compromising downhill performance.

Lightweight construction that maintains stability

The Light Woodcore in poplar optimizes weight while preserving shock absorption and stability. Fiberglass layers complete the core to provide performance that is both supple in feel and stable and dynamic. On the ascent, the reduced weight reduces the load to move with each step; on the descent, this combination aims for predictable and enjoyable skiing when conditions change.

HRZN 3D Backland tip: more float

The HRZN 3D Backland tip uses a thin and perforated material to limit the weight at the front of the ski. Its beveled three-dimensional shape increases the effective surface area in deep snow and promotes float. An asset for tackling thicker snow sections during your outings.

All-Terrain profile and All-Mountain Rocker

The all-terrain profile combines the ski shape, flex, and torsional stiffness to achieve versatile performance. The All-Mountain Rocker 15/85/0 combines 15% tip rocker and 85% camber, with no tail rocker. The gradually raised tip makes it easier to initiate turns and transition into variable snow, while the camber promotes edge contact and grip on firmer surfaces. The model is designed to handle both short turns and longer curves.
