Edge hold on firm snow is better than the number suggests, but this is built to be carried up first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the skier whose day starts at a trailhead rather than a lift line. If most of your season is inbounds with an occasional tour, a heavier ski with a touring binding serves you better.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost people ski it 5 to 10cm under their resort length. Shorter again if you kick turn a lot, longer if your objectives are open and fast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the ski that makes a dawn approach feel worth it, and it rewards you properly on the way back down.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atomic","offers":[{"title":"164","offer_id":49574727319790,"sku":"AA0030976164","price":799.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"172","offer_id":49574727352558,"sku":"AA0030976172","price":799.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"179","offer_id":49574727385326,"sku":"AA0030976179","price":799.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"186","offer_id":49574727418094,"sku":"AA0030976186","price":799.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0823\/9955\/9918\/files\/ato-pim-1aed102600814ce8-844525b2d43cc035_dd31fd62-fd4d-4eb0-a088-f0e7022b0b62.webp?v=1789428643","url":"https:\/\/mountainopsvt.com\/products\/atomic-backland-102-26-27","provider":"Mountain Ops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
