Designed for ambitious ski tourers who want confident downhill performance without sacrificing uphill efficiency, the Atomic Backland 101 W blends lightweight touring construction with true all-mountain versatility. The FreeTour Profile and Powder Rocker deliver playful, surfy handling in deep snow while maintaining control and stability in variable conditions. An ultra-light poplar and caruba woodcore keeps weight low for long climbs, while the HRZN 3D tip increases surface area for improved float and smoother turn initiation. Built with more wood and less metal, fiberglass, and resin, the Backland 101 W also reduces material-based CO₂ emissions—making it a lighter choice for both your legs and the environment.

HRZN 3D Backland
A unique application of HRZN Tech for Backland models, HRZN 3D features a broader, beveled three-dimensional tip that increases surface area to enhance float in powder and improve handling in variable conditions. Minimal extra material reduces swing weight for easier, more confident skiing.
Ultra Light Woodcore
Ultra Light Woodcore is a poplar and caruba wood core designed specifically for reduced weight in Atomic’s touring-focused skis.
FreeTour Profile
FreeTour Profile uses less fiberglass and more wood to create a lightweight ski with commanding downhill skiing performance.
Fiberglass
Continuous fiberglass layers create a ski that is smooth and stable while remaining lightweight and dynamic.
Dura Cap Sidewall
Dura Cap Sidewall runs from base to top sheet for controlled power transmission and great edge grip. The rounded shape of the Dura Cap Sidewall picks up fewer dents and dings, which makes the ski more durable.
