A light touring ski that performs in a range of conditions, because you can't pick your snow conditions, but you can pick your skis. With a wood core from toe to tail and a carbon backbone to stiffen it up, the Backland 85 lets you reach deep mountain terrain and quickly lap your skintrack for another run. The HRZN Tech tip is spoon-shaped to provide extra float in powder, and still performs on crud and hardpack.
- Core is made of poplar and caruba wood to bring the weight as low as possible
- Carbon Backbone adds snap and edge-hold with very minimal weight penalty
- HRZN Tech spoon-like tip reduces deflection and improves control in powder
- Full sidewall construction improves steering
- All Mountain Rocker is 15% rocker in the tip and 85% camber underfoot with a flat tail
- 7000-series sintered base holds wax very well for fast glide in any snow conditions
- Topsheets are lightweight and wear-resistant
