The Atomic Backland 95 is made for skiers who want a high performance backcountry ski that's sound in both soft and hardpack snow conditions.  The design offers a balanced combination of lightweight touring capabilities and freeride performance.  A carbon backbone through the forebody creates a ski that is powerful, damp, and has exceptional edge grip where it is needed.
Key Features:
- Ultralight Woodcore – The combination of poplar and caruba woods creates a ski that is light, yet damp when needed.
- Durable Edges – Atomic's edges are made of steel that's extremely wear-resistant for top notch durability and edge hold.
- HRZN Tips – This design feature places more surface area in the tips for flotation in powder.

 For boots, I split my time between SCARPA Maestrales and SCARPA F1, the first light touring boot whose flex fits my style. I skied the Atomics with the SCARPA F1. 

 While these skis flex in a nice looking curve, they’re not particularly soft. I’d call it a “medium” flex. In other words, your body weight could be a factor in how the Backland skis; scrawny speedsters might find them too stiff.

 Most importantly, they were light enough to haul up over 10,000 vertical feet, yet didn’t leave me wanting a wider, beefier ski on the descent. The combination of a full-length carbon insert, moderate rocker, sidewall, and a traditional camber seems well-suited to spring-time conditions.

 They initiated turns easily, did not chatter or hook on firm snow, and landed solidly on hop turns. They were sooo smooth on the corn.

A Skier's Fancy - Atomic Backland 95 Ski Review - The Backcountry Ski Touring Blog

 Right, so this morning I skied on the Atomic Backland 95. So I took it up from the valley before the lifts had opened and I was really impressed with how well the ski performed, especially skinning up on it. I really enjoyed how easy it was to kick turn. It meant that steeper pitches were really easy to tackle

 And then once I got up to the test site, I didn't feel particularly tired because it's such a lightweight construction. After that, once I started to take the ski down the hill and really see what it was like from a performance perspective, I was really pleased with how well it performed both on piste and in the powder. Because it's got a camber construction, it offered really good edge hold and I was very happy with how it performed overall even when I took it back onto the piste as well. After spending some time on this ski, I really feel like it's an ideal ski for somebody who is just potentially starting to get into touring

 Because it's got a camber construction, it offered really good edge hold and I was very happy with how it performed overall even when I took it back onto the piste as well. After spending some time on this ski, I really feel like it's an ideal ski for somebody who is just potentially starting to get into touring. It's a little bit narrower than its bigger brother in the 107 and therefore it offers a little bit more ease of use and still really good performance on the downward.

 The ski also features our new Horizon Tech tip in the ski, which gives it 10% extra flotation. The ski works really well with a traditional pin binding or with our new all-terrain binding, the Shift. Right, so this morning I skied on the Atomic Backland 95. So I took it up from the valley before the lifts had opened and I was really impressed with how well the ski performed, especially skinning up on it

Atomic’s standout freetour model is light for fast and long ascents, as good as a dedicated all mountain ski going downhill, and decent value considering the technology and design. HRZN Tech increases the surface area at the tip, reducing deflection and improving tracking in rough snow. The Carbon Backbone adds stability; the mix of cap and sidewall provides precision and forgiveness. The Ultra Light Woodcore keeps the weight down and tip inserts make skin use easier.

Atomic Backland 95 2018-2019 Ski Review | Ellis Brigham

 Pretty darn light, Atomic uses their ultralight wood core and then they use their carbon backbone to stiffen it up. You can kind of see in this back window here what they're doing with that carbon, just kind of interlaying stringers here in the tail and then through the shovel stiffens the ski, boosts performance, does not add a whole lot of weight. So that's kind of how they go about building this. This is the 177

 Hey skiers, it's Bob with SkiEssentials.com. Welcome to our 2022 ski test. We got an Atomic Backland 95 for you today

 Again, this is a 177, generates an 18 meter turn radius. So that's kind of right in the middle for where you want these mid 90s skis to be. This is a really good shape for versatile touring, wide enough to float through the powder but also narrow enough to keep the weight down, make it pretty easy to skin around. So anytime you're going up something that's a little bit more technical, it's easier to have less material under your foot

 Atomic is weighing it in at 1350 grams per ski, so definitely on the lighter weight end of the spectrum. A couple other cool things here, they got their kind of step down, I think they call it DuraCap sidewall, so pretty much a vertical sidewall from here to here, transitioning to a full cap to the tips and tails. So that's another weight saving method that they use. It also increases the maneuverability and quickness of the ski for those sketchier downhills

The Salomon MTN Explore 95 is made for advanced backcountry skiers who seek long distance tours and far-off missions. A 95mm waist provides a wide footprint and works with a subtle tip rocker to keep the rider on top of the snow when both skinning and skiing. The 3D Karuba full woodcore, C/FX carbon weave, and Koroyd tip make the ski stable in a variety of conditions and terrain.
Key Features:
- 3D Karuba Full Woodcore – The woodcore construction gives the ski a classic feel with excellent stability and chatter absorption, while keeping it lightweight.
- C/FX Carbon Weave – Adding stability and rebound to the ski, the carbon weave provides extra power without excess weight.
Koroyd Tip – A wide honeycomb insert in the tip reduces swing weight and increases float, making the ski easier to maneuver.

 This is the Salmon Mountain Explore 95 ski, and as the name suggests, it's 95 millimeters under the foot, and it's got 130 in the shovel, so nice and fat for powder, and some early rise, and 116 in the tail, and that's for the 177 length ski. It weighs 1,400 grams per ski, so 2,800 grams per pair, and that again is the 177 length, so it's a really lightweight ski, ideal for ski touring. It comes in a few different sizes, 169, 177, 184 centimeter lengths, and the turn radius ranges from 16.5 meters to 18

 This is the same construction you're going to find on the QBC Labs skis we reviewed last year over here, and also on the Q98s, that review's over here, and the Q105s, that review's over here as well. And this technology basically lightens the tip and tail up for improved swing weight, and it also gives the ski no chatter, virtually no chatter on hard pack and groomer conditions. And I'd have to say Salmon's one of the only ski manufacturers that's really mastered this. These skis just have minimal chatter on hard pack, whereas other skis with this early rise, they chatter all over the place and start skidding out on you, so I'm really a big fan of this honeycomb tip and tail design

 It also uses what Salmon calls the G-Spot technology, and this is basically a combination of sidecut and rocker profile, and places the edge hold directly underfoot, so you've got better edge hold on the groomers and also in skinning uphill. It's got a built-in skin clip in the tail here, as you can see, and in the tips it's got Salmon's honeycomb construction.

 The ski is 1,400 grams so super light for touring but with an alpine binding the thing is going to rip the entire mountain. Honeycomb tip, CFX super fiber to keep it nice and stable and of course full sandwich sidewall underfoot for excellent edge grip. All new for 2015-16 the MTN Explore 95.
