The Backland 85 W are touring skis for women from Atomic. This model is the most versatile of the range, it will perform equally well both uphill and downhill.
The Backland range's success comes from its perfect adaptation to both aspects of ski touring. The Light Woodcore makes them extremely light for ascents while also being perfectly stable for descents. Moreover, it is just as efficient on packed snow as in powder.
The skis feature a Horizon spoon-shaped tip, which provides you with perfect performance in powder snow and makes it even lighter and easier to ski off-piste, even on crusty snow. Its Dura Cap Sidewall construction guarantees ideal power transmission and excellent grip on all types of terrain and its rocker in the tip allows it to be at ease in all types of snow.
They are very versatile, perform well on all types of terrain and offer stability worthy of alpine skis.
The Backland 85 W is designed for easy ascents and excellent downhill performance in all types of snow.

Le Backland 85 revient cet hiver avec les mêmes qualités qu'on lui connaît, et c'est pour notre plus grand plaisir ! Sa spatule en forme de cuillère lui procure une portance irréprochable en poudreuse pour un ski de ce gabarit et sa construction légère facilite les montées afin de vous économiser un maximum pour envoyer en descente. Il est donc très polyvalent pour les randonneurs recherchant de la performance en montée comme en descente !
Les plus : rapport poids/performances, polyvalence.
Les moins : manque un peu de largeur en neige profonde.
