Tech Specs
Atomic Backland XTD 110 Alpine Touring Boot
The Atomic Backland XTD 110 is a touring boot for skiers who want the Backland XTD chassis without paying for carbon. A 110 flex over a polyamide shell, stiffened by an external Energy Backbone rib rather than by carbon fiber, drives skis in the 95 to 108 mm range, and the 100 mm last runs medium through the forefoot and the instep. At 1,369 g per boot in a 26/26.5 with 74 degrees of cuff rotation, the Backland XTD 110 tours as well as the carbon version and gives up flex, not stride.

Why We Like It
- The polyamide shell is 110 flex rather than 120 and punches more readily than the carbon loaded version, which matters on a difficult foot.
- 74 degrees of cuff rotation on Frictionless Mirror Pivots matches the carbon boots in the line, so the stride gives up nothing.
- At 1,369 g per boot in a 26/26.5 the Backland XTD 110 sits 11 g under the carbon 120, so the choice is flex and price rather than weight.
- The touring sole and certified tech inserts run this boot on pin, frame, and MNC bindings, which covers most backcountry setups.
Best Uses
- All-round backcountry touring on skis 95 to 108 mm wide
- Skiers moving up from a first touring boot
- Long days where stride matters more than the last degree of flex
- Medium-volume feet on a 100 mm last
- Pin, frame, and MNC binding setups
Bootfitter's Advice
The Backland XTD 110 runs a 100 mm last, medium width and medium volume, with a regular-height cuff across the size run and a ramp angle of 4 degrees. Confirm size with a shell fit rather than converting from a street-shoe number. The boot ships with a size adjuster, liner laces, and a liner spoiler, so volume and forward position can be tuned before anyone touches the shell.
A plain polyamide shell takes heat and punching more readily than the carbon loaded shells further up the Backland line, which makes the XTD 110 the easier boot to fit on a wide forefoot or a prominent sixth toe. The 3D Gold Tour liner is heat-moldable, and because Cross Lace 2.5 pulls the forefoot down through the lower buckle, a liner mold is usually the first move on a heel that lifts.

Backland XTD 110 vs. Atomic Backland XTD Carbon 120
Both run a 100 mm last, 74 degrees of rotation, and the Free/Lock 4.5 mechanism. The Carbon 120 uses a carbon loaded shell for a 120 flex at 1,380 g per boot. The Backland XTD 110 uses plain polyamide for a 110 flex at 1,369 g. The weight is close, so choose on flex and on how much fit work the shell needs.
