Backland 98 W Blue Grey/Maroon 2024
The Backland 98 W are touring skis for women from Atomic. It is a real freetouring ski with its 98mmwaist, it will allow you to have fun on the descent while remaining lightweight on the ascent.
The Backland range's success comes from its perfect adaptation to both aspects of ski touring. The Ultra 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.
This model is exactly halfway between a freeride ski and a touring ski, it can tackle powder, choppy snow and even packed snow. The skis feature a Horizon Tech 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.
The Dura construction guarantees ideal power transmission and excellent grip on all types of terrain and the tip rocker makes riding easy on all types of snow. In addition, it features a carbon insert which reinforces the structure of the ski without extra weight. You can also find pre-cut skins specially designed for this ski.
The Backland 98 W are really made for freetouring lovers looking for light and wide skis, which adapt to all conditions.
