This svelte beauty is a real powerhouse of fun.

With a capped sidewall construction and ultra-light wood core it is a real thoroughbred when it comes to the ascent.

The Atomic Backland 86 SL may go up like a firework on Hogmanay but do not let that fool you into thinking it will be a noodle on the descent. The carbon backbone running the length of the ski provides enough grunt and stability to allow you to let this thing fly.202

Lee says: “Stable yet light underfoot, this lightweight ripper made for effortless changes in direction, making light work of the varied terrain. In windblown gully powder stashes, the HRZN Tech Tip gave great float and maintained excellent control no matter how demanding the conditions”.

Verdict

A fantastic multi-day touring platform or a true Scottish touring slayer.
