Atomic Backland 109

With the Backland 109, Atomic has added a very wide, downhill-orientated ski in the Backland freetouring line. With the HRZN 3D on the shovel, it is reminiscent of the Bent Chetler series, but in terms of weight it is a Backland. We tested how the wide freetourer performs in action.

Atomic is focusing on clearer specialisation of the individual ski series in the freeride sector for 2024/25. Gone are the days of the One Ski Quiver, clear differentiation is back in! The Bent series is aimed at backcountry freestylers, Maverick and Maven are designed for big lines in Alaska and the Backland series comes along on "missions" and downhill-orientated ski tours. The details of familiar models have been optimised and a few new variants have been added.
