Atomic Backland 117 Skis 2024

For experienced freeride skiers who want a wide touring ski for powder-focused outings.

It suits riders willing to carry a broader platform uphill to gain support in deep snow on the descent.

The Backland 117 is designed for powder and big freeride lines. Its rockered tip helps it plane through soft snow.

This is a wide touring option for trips where the descent and flotation take priority over a narrow, minimal uphill setup.

• Powder flotation: The 117 mm waist supplies surface area for deeper snow.
• Tip lift: HRZN Tech Tip adds surface area to help the front of the ski float.
• Downhill support: Carbon reinforcement and camber contribute to a stable platform.

• Ultra Light Woodcore: Lightweight wood reduces the load carried uphill.
• Carbon Backbone: Full-length carbon reinforcement adds support without a heavy metal build.
• Fiberglass: Reinforcement contributes to the ski’s structure and response.
• Dura Cap Sidewall: Sidewall construction supports edge grip, with a rounded cap for durability.
