The award winning Helio Carbon collection is all about equipment that maximizes performance and minimizes weight, and nothing represents this idea better than these skis. Featuring four different sizes to cover the gamut of conditions and objectives, The skis are handmade in Austria with a pre-preg carbon fiber layup that offers incredible torsional stiffness and balanced flex in a lightweight package. The result is a collection that won’t weigh you down on the skin track or the climb, and provides incredibly reliable and precise performance on steep, technical descents.
THE HELIO CARBON COLLECTION REPRESENTS THE CORE OF WHAT WE DO AT BLACK DIAMOND.
Fall Line Ski of the Year 2023 - Men's Touring
"The Helio Carbon 95 is a lightweight and very competent touring ski that has more than enough band width to cope with deep powder and hard, icy pistes. It is perhaps the do everything, all-round workhorse of the new Helio range. A safe investment for anyone looking to reduce their quiver. Would be a great choice for the hut to hut, springtime tourer who is looking for as much up as down. However, it would also suit the early season powder hunter who is going to let the lifts do some of the work! It’s the accessible, all round nature which makes the Helio 95 our Touring Ski of the Year."
Freeskier Magazine - Editors' Pick
"Long haul missions in the mountains require gear that is equally capable of going the distance. Black Diamond knew this when it teamed up with the expert craftsmen at Blizzard’s factory in Mittersill, Austria, to bring the Helio Carbon 104 to life. Starting with an ultralight paulownia wood core, the ski features a pre-preg carbon layup and full perimeter ABS sidewalls that dampens the ride when conditions are less than ideal. Increased torsional rigidity and a longer effective edge give you plenty of hold, but the early rise tip and taper in the tail (with a pre-cut tail notch) allows you to slash your turns when the powder is deep. The only question left is: Can your ski partner keep up on the booter?"
For dedicated alpinists and ski mountaineers who are constantly striving to go faster while carrying less, our Helio Carbon Collection is stripped of excess for technical alpine objectives where every ounce counts.
Engineered to withstand the abuse of rugged mountain terrain and built using the most advanced materials available, the Helio Carbon collection represents the core of what we do at Black Diamond.
Navigating crevassed glaciers, climbing over snow, ice and rock, and descending steep, no-fall terrain requires the full set of mountain travel skills, and as such, these skis encompasses the spectrum of essential equipment - from apparel and skis to packs and harnesses. It’s gear you can trust. Gear that holds up but won’t hold you back. The Helio Carbon collection exists to help you go Lighter. Faster. Stronger.
