The widest, most progressive ski in the range, with HRZN Tech for superb performance in the soft stuff.
BACKLAND 95 + PRE CUT 95 SKINS
Not every day can be a powder day (we wish!) and the fact is you always have to deal with a range of conditions and terrain in touring. So in our Atomic Backland 95 we’ve made a touring ski with the versatility you need. They’re the perfect mix of a freeride and a touring ski, ready for powder, crud and even hard pack. The Carbon Backbone and Ultra Light Woodcore makes climbing a breeze and skiing really stable. This top model also features HRZN Tech in the tip for tackling the deep stuff when you can get it!

Type -1
Skiers looking for a lower release setting than type 1. Recommended for beginners over 25 years old.
Type 1
Ski conservatively. Prefer slower speeds. Ski on easy to moderate slopes. Intermediate level, but not in good physical fitness. Good skiers, but with smooth supple style, but emphasizing safety. Favour lower than average release/retention settings – This corresponds to increased risk of inadvertent binding release in order to gain increased release capacity in a fall.
Type 2
Intermediate skiers in good physical condition. Prefer a variety of speeds. Ski on varied terrain, including most difficult trails. All skiers who do not meet all the descriptions of the other types.
Type 3
Ski aggressively. Normally ski at high speeds. Prefer moderate to steep terrain. Favour higher than average release/retention settings. This corresponds to decreased capability to release in a fall in order to decrease the risk of inadvertent binding release. (Type 3 should not be used by skiers of less than 22kg)
Type 3+
Very strong skiers, on challenging terrain. Skiers looking for higher release settings than type 3. N.B Skier type does not have the same meaning as skier ability. I.E, an advanced skier who skis all-terrain but is not particularly aggressive may be able to use type 2 settings.
Using the boot sole length you give, we set the binding to that length, but the final adjustments and checks can only be made with the actual boot. Heel and toe units on ALL boots have to conform to a certain size and shape. However, sometimes boots especially older models or well-worn ones, may vary in length compared to another stating the same measurements hence it is important that you do have them professionally double-checked. We recommend that you have your skis double-checked by your local or resort ski shop with your actual boot.
