Any backcountry skiers in here? Looking at new gear to get back out there this season. https://www.evo.com/outlet/skis/black-diamond-helio-recon-105 https://www.evo.com/outlet/skis/atomic-backland-100-2022 are on my radar.

Last season I got a pair of Bentchetler 120s mounted with g3 Ions. While I wouldn't really recommend the Ion bindings (have had some durability issues), the bents are absolutely incredible as a touring ski

Nice - those have to be super fun in deep snow. My younger brother snapped the back pins on his G3 Ions making a turn on groomers last winter. Will keep them out of my shopping list.
