ATOMIC Backland 85 W

ATOMIC Backland 85 W are women’s ski touring skis designed for adventures in mountain terrain, combining versatile ski touring capabilities with functionality on the subsequent descents. With a waist width of 84–85 mm depending on length, they represent a narrower touring model aimed at female skiers looking for lightweight skis for travelling through the mountains and wanting a balanced combination of characteristics for both ascents and descents. The supplied materials also emphasize a construction with a lower environmental impact.

The construction is based on a Light Woodcore, a lightweight wood core complemented by HRZN 3D Backland, All-Terrain Profile, Fiberglass and Dura Cap Sidewall technologies. The model uses an All Mountain Rocker 15/85/0 profile and a Glossy Topsheet finish. The technical specifications state a weight of 1130 g for the 157 cm length, which corresponds to the focus on lightweight touring construction, although the source does not specify whether this value refers to one ski or a pair.

The dimensions vary depending on length. The 149 cm version measures 115-84-103 mm, the 157 cm length 117-84.5-105 mm, and the longest 165 cm version 118.5-85-106.5 mm. The turn radius starts at 13.2 m for the 149 cm length, continues with 14.2 m at 157 cm and reaches 15.2 m for the 165 cm length. The product classification specifies a medium radius of 14–17 m; however, according to the technical specifications, the shortest 149 cm length has a radius of 13.2 m, which falls below this category.

According to the product classification, ATOMIC Backland 85 W are supplied without bindings. Two manufacturer codes are listed in the technical specifications: AA0030730 for the Flat version and AAST02490 for the +Skin 85/86 version. However, the supplied materials do not provide further specifications for the skins or a specific recommended binding, so we do not add this information without an additional source.

Who are these skis designed for

ATOMIC Backland 85 W are primarily designed for female skiers looking for lightweight women’s touring skis for ski touring trips, mountain adventures and a combination of ascents and descents. The character of the model is primarily defined by its 84–85 mm waist, All Mountain Rocker 15/85/0, Light Woodcore and construction elements focused on touring use.

The model is particularly suitable for skiers who:

  • are looking for women’s skis designed for Touring

  • want a model for ski touring and mountain terrain

  • want to combine ascents with subsequent descents

  • are looking for skis with an 84–85 mm waist

  • prefer a narrower touring geometry

  • want Light Woodcore

  • are looking for a construction with HRZN 3D Backland

  • want All-Terrain Profile

  • prefer All Mountain Rocker 15/85/0

  • are looking for a construction complemented by Fiberglass

  • prefer Dura Cap Sidewall

  • want to choose from 149 / 157 / 165 cm lengths

  • are looking for a turn radius from 13.2 to 15.2 m depending on length

  • are looking for low weight, with 1130 g specified for the 157 cm length

  • want skis supplied without bindings

  • want the option to choose ski touring bindings separately according to their own requirements

  • are looking for a Flat version or, according to the manufacturer code, also a +Skin 85/86 version

Backland 85 W combine an 84–85 mm waist, All Mountain Rocker 15/85/0, Light Woodcore, HRZN 3D Backland and All-Terrain Profile with a clear focus on Touring. Their specifications create a narrower touring platform for female skiers who want to combine ski touring use with functionality on descents, exactly in line with the intended use stated in the supplied product materials.

How the skis perform

ATOMIC Backland 85 W use an All Mountain Rocker 15/85/0 profile. This designation is stated directly in both the technology list and the technical description. However, the supplied materials do not explain the exact meaning of the individual values or their units, so without an additional source we do not interpret them as a specific percentage or length distribution of the individual profile sections.

The turn radius varies by length from 13.2 to 15.2 m. The 149 cm version has a radius of 13.2 m, the 157 cm length 14.2 m, and the longest 165 cm version 15.2 m. The product classification generally specifies the medium-radius category of 14–17 m, but the specific technical figures show that the shortest 149 cm version has a radius of 13.2 m.

HRZN 3D Backland together with All-Terrain Profile form other characteristic elements of the model. The technical description explicitly states the intended use as Touring, while the basic product description emphasizes the balance between versatile ski touring capabilities and functionality on descents. However, the source does not provide further details about how the individual technologies perform in specific snow or skiing conditions, so we do not add unsupported claims regarding stability, edge grip or performance in particular types of snow.

How to read the specifications

Dimensions 115-84-103 to 118.5-85-106.5 mm

The dimensions of ATOMIC Backland 85 W vary depending on length:

  • 149 cm – 115-84-103 mm

  • 157 cm – 117-84.5-105 mm

  • 165 cm – 118.5-85-106.5 mm

The waist width is therefore 84 mm for the 149 cm length, 84.5 mm for 157 cm and 85 mm for 165 cm. All versions correspond to the product classification with a ski width under the binding in the 75–85 mm category.

Turn radius 13.2–15.2 m

The turn radius is specified separately for each length:

  • 149 cm – 13.2 m

  • 157 cm – 14.2 m

  • 165 cm – 15.2 m

The product classification specifies the category Medium (14–17 m). However, the specific technical data show that the 157 and 165 cm lengths fall within this category, while the shortest 149 cm length has a radius of 13.2 m. We retain this difference according to the supplied materials and do not modify the stated value.

Lengths 149–165 cm

The model is available in 149, 157 and 165 cm lengths.

The appropriate length should be selected according to height, weight, skiing ability, experience, preferred terrain and the requirements of the complete ski touring setup.

Weight 1130 g / 157 cm

The technical description specifies a weight of 1130 g for the 157 cm length.

However, the supplied materials do not specify whether this value refers to one ski or a pair. Therefore, we do not add this information without an additional verified source. Separate weight figures for the 149 and 165 cm lengths are not provided.

All Mountain Rocker 15/85/0

ATOMIC Backland 85 W use an All Mountain Rocker 15/85/0 profile.

This designation is stated directly in both the technology list and the technical description. However, the source does not explain the values 15/85/0 or their units, so without additional verified information we do not convert them into a specific percentage or length distribution of the profile.

Technologies and construction

Light Woodcore

The ATOMIC Backland 85 W are built around a Light Woodcore, a lightweight wood core.

The same designation is used in both the technology list and the technical description. However, the specific wood species, their arrangement and the exact core construction are not stated in the supplied materials, so we do not add these details without an additional source.

HRZN 3D Backland

ATOMIC Backland 85 W use HRZN 3D Backland technology.

This designation is consistently listed in both the technology list and the technical construction description. However, the supplied materials do not provide a more detailed construction description or specific dimensions for this technology, so we do not expand its characteristics beyond the information provided.

All-Terrain Profile

The model uses All-Terrain Profile.

This technology is listed in both the technology list and the technical construction description. However, the source does not specify the exact construction of the profile or its specific parameters, so without additional information we do not add more detailed claims about its effect on ski performance.

Fiberglass

According to the supplied materials, the construction also includes Fiberglass.

The technical description does not specify the exact positioning, quantity or orientation of the fiberglass. Therefore, without an additional source, we do not make specific claims about its effect on flex, torsional stiffness or other skiing characteristics.

Dura Cap Sidewall

ATOMIC Backland 85 W use Dura Cap Sidewall construction.

This designation is included in both the technology list and the technical construction description. However, the exact material composition and construction of the sidewalls are not described in greater detail in the supplied materials, so we do not add properties beyond the technology name itself.

Glossy Topsheet

According to the technical description, the model features a Glossy Topsheet.

This is the designation of the upper surface finish listed directly among the construction elements. Further material or functional properties of this layer are not specified in the supplied materials.

Edge angles

The technical description specifies the following factory values:

  • Side Edge Angle: 87°

  • Base Edge Angle: 1.0°

  • Standard Edge

These values describe the edge angles stated by the manufacturer in the technical specifications. No further information regarding the construction, material or dimensions of the edges is provided.

Carbon Footprint Reduction –30%

The additional features include Carbon Footprint Reduction –30%.

However, the source does not provide the calculation methodology, reference product or baseline value against which the 30% reduction was determined. We therefore retain the manufacturer’s figure without further interpretation or unsupported explanation.

Flat / +Skin 85/86

Two manufacturer codes are listed in the technical specifications:

  • AA0030730 – Flat

  • AAST02490 – +Skin 85/86

The product classification also states that bindings are not included. The supplied materials do not provide further technical information about the +Skin 85/86 version, so without an additional source we do not add details regarding the material, construction or other characteristics of the skins.
