Black Diamond Helio Carbon 108 Ski
The Black Diamond Helio Carbon 108 has been designed from the ground up with a shape that thrives in deep powder while still offering stability on runouts and firmer conditions. With its pre-preg carbon fiber layup, responsive and durable poplar wood core, and burly ABS sidewalls, the Helio 108 delivers a lively and playful feel on the descent. The rockered tip and tail boost flotation while encouraging maneuverability in oh-so-tight spaces. Finally, the ABS tail protector includes a built-in skin-clip notch to keep your skins locked and loaded on tricky skin tracks. The Helio Carbon 108 from Black Diamond is a versatile performer that thrives in locales with plenty of soft snow.
