About the Helio Recon 105
The Recon is from Black Diamond's flagship Helio backcountry ski range. It's the ski they describe as the ideal daily driver for the dedicated backcountry skier who needs high performance and low weight, and they aren't wrong.
A poplar wood core provides the durability and consistent flex but keeps the weight down, whilst dampening technology keeps your ride smooth and powerful.
ABS sidewalls add to the stiff flex and lend a stable feel along the whole ski. A rockered profile with camber underfoot and a medium turning radius offer maximum edge hold where you need it and float in deep snow. The beveled shape of the sidewall helps with deflection and durability.
The whole package is rounded off with early rise tip & tails for a nimble, maneuverable ride and plenty of float in powder.
This is a ski for the backcountry or touring skier who wants top of the range performance in a lightweight package!
