The Backland 98 W returns for the 2023-24 season with just a top sheet update. Last season, Atomic quadrupled its options in the women's Backland line to include everything from mountaineering-specific options to powder-touring boards. The Backland 98 W sits in the middle of the range and will likely be the best option for the widest range of skiers. Wide enough to float through soft snow and narrow enough to bite when things firm up, the Backland 98 W gives directional skiers a great option for everyday ski touring, East or West. Harvest spring corn, hunt big lines, cruise meadows, or book a hut trip. The Backland 98 W is rearing to go. With an Ultra Light Woodcore reinforced with a Carbon Backbone, these skis fly up the skintrack and hold their own in most snow conditions. Whether you just want a lightweight setup for ripping laps at the resort or a dedicated setup for adventure touring, the Backland 98 should be on your short list.
