Tech Specs
Whether you're heading out for a spring ski mountaineering epic or an early morning resort lap, the Backland 78 touring ski is a capable, lightweight partner. The Backland 78 touring skis are one of the best price-performing touring skis in Atomic's Backland lineup. With its slender 78mm underfoot layout, this lightweight ski (1200g at 170cm) soars uphill and gives a capable ride down.
Featuring a dura cap sidewall and HRZN tip technology, the Backland 78 planes through fresh snow.
