The Atomic Backland FR 117 is the fattest Backland FR – Atomic’s new series of freeride powder chargers. Backland FR is the successor to the Automatic series created with freeride pros Sage Cattabriga-Alosa and Dana Flahr.

This top model has a 117 mm waist, Carbon Backbone and Powder Rocker profile. It also now features revolutionary HRZN Tech in the tip for more surface area and even better floatation.

It’s stiff enough for aggressive skiing on deep storm days or shredding big mountain spines. It delivers on harder snow thanks to the camber underfoot. And in comparison to Automatic, we’ve made Backland FR even lighter without sacrificing stability, thanks to a Light Woodcore. This also makes them awesome freeride touring skis: great for reaching those best spots – boot packing or skinning.

Atomic is CMH’s official ski sponsor, signifying the continued collaboration that brings the best gear to the most incredible terrain. Walk into any CMH lodge this season and you’re bound to see a variety of Atomic’s Backland FR series lining the shop, their latest range of big mountain skis. Developed for deep powder and the backcountry landscape, you’ll find them in every CMH lodge, delivering everything guests and guides are looking for in a state-of-the-art heli-ski.
