Atomic Backland 89 SL Ski 2025

Please note that we are not able to deliver Atomic skis to the USA or Canada. Please contact us if you would your bindings delivered to an alternative address.

We believe that the most versatile touring skis have waist widths in the high 80s and Atomic obviously do too, since they have made two skis with exactly the same sidecut.
The Atomic Backland 88 & the Backland 89 SL share the same 124-90-112 mm shape and 17.4 m turning radius. They also share many features such as Atomic's HRZN 3D Backland tip, All Terrain flex Profile and Dura Cap sidewalls. 
Atomic have gone to great efforts to reduce the environmental impact of their skis, and the manufacture of these new skis creates 30% less carbon emissions compared to the previous models, thanks to the use of more poplar wood, less fiberglass and resin, and waste-reducing sidewalls.
Where they differ is only in the materials used for the wood core and the carbon backbone. The Backland 88 has a poplar Light Wood core, also used for the new Backland 85 skis, while the Atomic Backland 89 SL has a poplar / caruba mixed Ultra Light Wood core as used in the Backland UL series skis. This saves 80 g per ski and the Backland 89 SL is lightweight and efficient on the way up, while the Carbon Backbone provides increased stability and helps give these skis a slightly stiffer and more lively flex.
A supremely versatile touring ski with a very useful shape and minimal weight, the Backland 89 SL has Atomic's All Mountain Rocker for total adaptability whatever the terrain. This is the ideal ski for those seeking to move fast and light in the mountains and rack up a lot of vertical.
