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, they’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.

There are some first times that we will always remember. Like the time I skied off-piste through the alpine highlands of le parc national de la Gaspésie.

With four decades of ice canoeing under his belt, Jean Anderson has dominated a sport that's unique to Quebec and that he helped shape.
Featuring three gravel and three MTB events, the series explores the intense competition and love of the sport among 60 of the world’s premier cyclists.
Winter commute with #mountainlifer @michelle_pittam ❄️🚵‍♀️🌲
@lhymnedestrembles.ca is no mirage. Set in the lush Laurentian forest, yet easily accessible (less than an hour and a half from Montreal), this luxurious ski-in ski-out residential resort by @groupebrivia is nestled at the foot of the Versant Soleil side of Mont Tremblant. The Tremblant region is a perennial destination for outdoor enthusiasts from around the world, and within the province, attracting 3.5 million visitors annually.
ML staff and gear partners highlight the latest jackets, boards, crampons, hoodies, insoles and bindings in alpha order. #Linkinbio to learn more!
Adventures like this one require an inspiring team. @timemmett is a longtime friend, adventure partner and extraordinary human; an explorer, pro climber, surfer, freediver—you name it. @luca.freediver is an incredibly talented freediver, fresh off breaking the Canadian national freediving record (85 metres). The fourth man on the team, @brianhockenstein, is a filmmaker and multi-talented snowboarder always ready to jump into the fray and capture the magic. - words Jimmy Martinello. #Linkinbio to learn more!
We came in search of the connection of the human spirit to both art and adventure, whether climbing from the depths of moulins and ice caves, breaking through ice while paddleboarding fjords, climbing icebergs, freediving between tectonic plates or surfing cold waves.
A thousand and one things could have gone wrong, but she made it to the top:  @mariepier.desharnais is the first Quebecois woman to climb K2.
