Atomic Backland 86 SL (Backcountry Touring Ski 2024/2025)

Product Summary

The Atomic Backland 86 SL is the perfect tool during both downhill rides and steep ascents. Thanks to its low weight, the ski is easy to master even on longer trips. The Atomic Backland 86 SL's full retail price is €659.99. The Ski costs roughly €40 more than the average price of all Backcountry Touring Skis, making it an upper mid-range model. Effortless to ride at all speeds, this ski is just right for all intermediate skiers. The Backland 86 SL is a more off-piste oriented ski which rides great in deep powder. Thanks to its versatility however, it is also fun on groomers from time to time. Available lengths for the ski are ranging between 157 and 179cm.

The ski in details

A superlight ski for full-day missions, the all-round Atomic Backland 86 SL is designed to fly up the skin track and rip on the way down.

A reinterpretation of the original Backland SL construction, the ski features a lower-impact design and uses more lower-carbon raw materials to reduce production waste and cut CO2 equivalent emissions by 30% (compared with the Backland 85, 2021). All-Terrain Profile uses a natural-wood-to-fiberglass ratio to create a ski shape that enhances climbing and improves downhill performance on harder snow surfaces. A Carbon Backbone adds stiffness while the poplar/caruba woodcore keeps the ski lightweight and nimble. HRZN 3D adds surface area in the tip for better float in powder while also reducing swing weight for easier, faster, more powerful skiing. Powder, hardpack, groomed or anything in between, the Backland 86 SL delivers absolute confidence in any touring terrain. Choose an Atomic PreFit skin for the ultimate touring set up.

Weight: 2400g/pair @ 179cm
