Atomic Backland 78 Alpine Touring Ski

Whether you're heading out for a spring ski mountaineering epic or an early morning resort lap, the Backland 78 touring ski is a capable, lightweight partner. The Backland 78 touring skis are one of the best price-performing touring skis in Atomic's Backland lineup. With its slender 78mm underfoot layout, this lightweight ski (1200g at 170cm) soars uphill and gives a capable ride down. Featuring a dura cap sidewall and HRZN tip technology, the Backland 78 planes through fresh snow. The all mountain rocker coupled with the narrow waist maintain stability in variable snow while the 17.5m turn radius and low swing weight make it easy to maneuver through tight trees or narrow couloirs. The Backland 78 has all the best features from the Backland series at a low price point.
