Atomic Backland Carbon Alpine Touring Ski Boot
When your noob friend asks what you mean when you say, "fast and light," show them a picture the Backland Carbon and then promptly drop the mic. The stiffest of Atomic's Backland family, the Carbon is custom built for the longest, burliest, and most trying backcountry tours you can dream up.
With a narrower last and ultralightweight design thanks to targeted carbon fiber and Prolite construction, this boot guarantees you'll have energy for the descent after the uphill. Atomic's Frictionless Pivot and easy-to-toggle Free/Lock 4.0 ski/walk mechanism provide for completely natural movement, and that's not even mentioning the ludicrous 74° range of motion. And you thought hiking your skis up was a burden...
The nifty Cross Lace 2.0 closure system locks down your foot and ankle for a responsive downhill experience, while a breathable 3D Platinum Tour liner with Dry Fit Foam stiffens the package up and uniformly wraps teh foot for a custom fit.
The Backland Carbon was built for skiers who, no matter how hard or long they work, don't know how to empty their gas tank. You know who I'm talking about...the ones we're all jealous of!
