Backland XTD Carbon 120 GW Ski Boot - 2027

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I've put the Backland XTD Carbon 120 GW Ski Boot through long touring days on wider skis and it handles both ends of the day exceptionally well. The 74° of cuff rotation gives you a natural walking stride that adds up to a lot less fatigue on big approaches, and when you lock it down the 120 flex skis with real authority. The 3D Platinum Tour liner is noticeably breathable for a performance boot, which matters on warm spring tours."

Touring boots live two lives, and the Atomic Backland XTD Carbon 120 GW Ski Boot is built to excel at both. On the way up, 74° of pure cuff rotation delivers a natural, efficient stride that lets you cover ground without fighting your equipment. The GripWalk sole handles varied terrain between trailhead and snowline, and compatibility with Gripwalk, MNC, Pin, and MN bindings means this boot works with virtually any touring setup you're running.

When you lock in and point it downhill, the carbon loaded PA shell and Prolite construction deliver a 120 flex platform that drives wider touring skis with confidence and precision. Memory Fit customizes the shell, cuff, and liner to your exact anatomy, while the 3D Platinum Tour liner wraps the foot in a firm, breathable, fully heat-moldable fit that manages climate across a full day of hard output. The Free/Lock 4.5 walk mechanism is Atomic's most robust, designed to shed snow and ice reliably so transitions stay fast and frustration-free no matter what the conditions look like at the top.
