Atomic Backland Carbon Boot

The Backland Carbon Boot from Atomic got a serious makeover for 2019/20, with several updates that make it simpler to put on and transition. All the updates are aimed at streamlining the boot without losing the smooth-skinning functionality of the Frictionless Pivots. Atomic incorporated a BOA closure system which allows for a snug, glove-like fit along your foot. Considering how customizable the Backland Carbon shell and liner are, this may be one of the best fitting, lightweight boots out there. A 40mm cam power strap improves on the thinner power strap that older models featured, and the taller cuff means faster reaction times on the way down. With carbon loaded polyamide making up the cuff and shell on this updated model, you won’t find yourself losing power on edge. Atomic took a great boot and made it better while preserving the unique customizable fit that made older models so popular. With such an easy-to-use boot and wide range of articulation, you'll be wearing these around the house on Sunday afternoon.

• The Frictionless Pivot provides an efficient and smooth stride, allowing for a natural walking motion that doesn't try to reinvent the wheel-- it is just walking, after all.
• Updated shell and cuff material offers excellent lateral power transmission so you can consider using these boots on fatter skis.
• BOA closure system wraps the foot evenly and snugly, you can ski down without slop then skin right back to the top in comfort.
• Free/Lock 2.0 ski/walk mech is proven solid and still really simple to use while offering great support in ski mode.
• Full rubber sole means confidence when walking on stuff that isn't snow, which does happen in the real world.
• Fully moldable shell and liner means it can fit some big hooves.
