2026 Atomic Backland 102 Skis
for 2026, the Atomic Backland 102 is for freeride backcountry skiers seeking to explore, climb, and descend with confidence no matter the snow conditions or terrain. Its lightweight construction with robust materials and FreeTour Profile combine for an ideal balance of power, precision, and efficiency. Playful maneuverability in deep powder, crud, and chop. The Backland 102 is suited for any condition or terrain you can find in the backcountry.
Why we like it:
The most versatile of the Backland skis, the 102 is great for any snow condition and in any terrain due to its shape and well balanced snow feel.
Who it's for:
Advanced to expert level backcountry skiers who need a lightweight chassis with loads of confidence inspiring downhill performance.
Highlights:
Atomic’s FreeTour Profile results in a backcountry ski with genuine downhill power. Its Ultra Light Woodcore is made up of poplar and caruba which creates an ideal balance of low weight and maximum performance. HRZN 3D Backland tips provide more floatation by adding surface area to the tips without adding width. Finally, Dura Cap Sidewalls add strength to the overall flex of the ski as well as durability for in low tide zones.
Things to consider:
The 2026 Atomic Backland 102 is a freeride backcountry powder ski that is best suited for missions outside the resort with some sidecountry applications. Lighter, less aggressive skiers could use these in a resort only application if they want a lightweight and highly maneuverable ski, however heavier, more aggressive skiers have better options that would suit them better.
Fit & sizing considerations:
Skis true to size.
