The Black Diamond Helio Carbon 104 is a lightweight powder hunter with great edge-to-edge control when the conditions become firmer. We love the ABS sidewalls and tails, which make the ski feel damp when navigating fresh snow. The engineered Paulownia core with carbon fiber layup creates a balanced ski that is playful in soft snow and precise in variable conditions. The smooth flex helps skiers drive the skis without getting bucked around, leading to better control.
Helio Carbon 104 features the most early-rise tips in the series, allowing skiers to drive through the tips without fear of burying them and catching a snow snake. This 104-waisted ski is a go-to pick for big vert days to find the ultimate powder runs. The 21-meter turn radius allows you to go big for speed and slash long, powerful turns down couloirs. If you are looking for something lighter than those green 102-waisted skis that feel normal, grab a pair of the Helio Carbon 104 to feel the free spirit of the Wasatch combined with the power of Austrian-made skis.
The titanal binding mount plate is great for all sets of touring bindings. Whether you want a Fritschi Tecton or an ATK on this board, you will love these skis. The Helio series early-rise tip and tail boast a smooth flex throughout. The 5mm thick ABS sidewalls allow for precise carving, easy slarving, and quick slashing at any speed.
All Helio Carbon skis feature a skin clip tab on the tail to help keep skins from sliding off. These powder hunters are built to break trail without breaking your spirit. There's no tour these skis won't handle.
