DESCRIPTION
The Backland 85 UL is a ski touring ski designed for those who prioritize uphill speed and extreme lightness without compromising on technical handling on descents. With a tip width of 85 mm, it ranks among the most versatile options in Atomic's endurance range, capable of performing on both compact tracks and light fresh snow.
Construction and materials
At the heart of the design is Ultra Light Carbon technology, which combines an ultralight wooden core with strategically placed carbon fiber layers to reduce overall weight while maintaining torsional stiffness and responsiveness. The result is one of the lightest ski touring skis in the Atomic catalog, weighing around 900-1000 g per ski depending on the length. The geometric profile ensures a fluid sidecut radius, ideal for quick transitions and clean turns even on steep slopes.
Performance and use
- 85 mm underfoot width for sufficient float on transformed snow
- Ultra Light Carbon construction for minimal weight and high responsiveness
- Balanced tip-tail profile for fast uphill gliding and downhill control
- Compatible with pin and frame ski touring bindings in standard sizes
The ideal use is for ski-alp racing or multi-hour endurance outings, where every saved gram translates into energy conserved over long elevation gains. On descents, the carbon fiber guarantees a lively response that rewards those seeking speed and precision rather than passive dampening.
Sizing
Available lengths: 179 cm. Atomic's ski touring recommendations: all-round skis approximately 5 cm shorter than your height, fast & light skis 5 to 10 cm shorter, freeride touring skis equal to your height or up to 5 cm longer. The shorter the ski, the more agile it is when turning around; the longer the ski, the more stable it is and the better it floats.
