Product Summary
The Atomic Backland FR 117's full retail price is €699.99. The Ski costs roughly €30 more than the average price of all Powder Skis, making it an upper mid-range model. Results in the categories 'Stability at speed', 'Short turns'and 'Long turns' were less convincing. Effortless to ride at all speeds, this ski is just right for all intermediate skiers. The Backland FR 117 is a pure freeride ski. Riding on groomers is no problem but due to its fairly wide waist the ski has a strong bias towards powder runs. Available lengths for the ski are ranging between 179 and 193cm.
