Backland 101 W women's skis 2026

About Atomic Backland 101 W women's skis 2025

Built for female ski tourers seeking freeride adventure, the ambitious Atomic Backland 101 W is driven to explore, climb and descend with commanding confidence. Featuring the same construction as the wider Backland 108 W, the ski employs FreeTour Profile to create a touring ski with serious downhill power. A poplar and caruba Ultra Light Woodcore provides the ideal balance of low weight and optimum performance and the three-dimensional HRZN 3D tip increases surface area for better float in deeper snow conditions. Powder Rocker delivers prominent tip and tail rocker with camber underfoot for effortless, playful handling in deep powder, crud, and chop. A reinterpretation of the original Backland, this ski is built with more wood and less fiberglass, metal, and resin to reduce material-based CO2 equivalent emissions by 26% (compared with the Backland 100, 2022). Developed with input from skiers like Amie Engerbretson, it’s the soulful performance and uphill efficiency of the Backland 101 W that keeps her skiing deeper into the mountains.
