OUR TEST OF THE ATOMIC BACKLAND 101 W
MANUFACTURER’S OPINION
Designed for skiers eager for freeride adventure, the Atomic Backland 101 W is ideal for exploring, climbing, and descending with confidence. Inspired by the wider Backland 108 W model, this powerful touring ski incorporates the FreeTour Profile, optimizing downhill performance.
Construction and Materials: The Backland 101 W features an Ultra Light Woodcore, blending poplar and caruba wood, offering a perfect balance between lightness and performance. Its three-dimensional HRZN 3D tip increases the surface area for better flotation in deep snow.
Powder Rocker Technology: The Powder Rocker, with pronounced tip and tail and camber underfoot, ensures playful and effortless maneuverability in powder, as well as in tracked and crusted snow.
Eco-friendly Design: A reinterpretation of the original Backland, this ski uses more low-carbon raw materials, more wood, and less fiberglass, metal, and resin, reducing CO2 emissions by 26% compared to the Backland 100 of 2022.
Collaborative Development: Developed with the help of skiers like Amie Engerbretson, the Backland 101 W stands out for its exceptional performance and climbing efficiency, inspiring skiers to push their limits.
In summary, the Atomic Backland 101 W is a versatile and eco-friendly ski, designed for skiers seeking new mountain adventures, offering a perfect combination of lightness, maneuverability, and freeride performance.
