 But hold on a second, wait isn't this supposed to be a touring ski? How many of you really want that? I'm thinking instead of the two this is the one that's a little more surfy playful pivoty. It feels definitely looser in the middle to me and that's probably what most of you are looking for. If I'm looking for a powder ski I am definitely gonna reach for this versus the Zero G. I would probably at my body weight ride it in 95 because I don't need all that flotation

 We're riding ATK bindings here which are absolutely fantastic but they're quite a bit lighter than the looks we were on on the Zero G. I think this is a pound lighter as a rig and and I don't know how much of that comes from this ski. So I'm just gonna guess that the Helio is no heavier than the Zero G and possibly even lighter which is kind of hard to believe because we're getting at down into like a five pound range. Extremely light

 Excellent ski to compare with the Zero G. They're both actually made by Blizzard. And let's see what we think about Black Diamonds take on a 95 millimeter wasted touring ski. I don't know the weight, I forgot to ask

 You're not getting Blizzard's world-class geometry on hard snow. You're not really getting that racy GS carver feel. But hold on a second, wait isn't this supposed to be a touring ski?

Black Diamond Helio Carbon 95 Review: in contrast to the Zero G, the Helio is more oriented toward soft snow and powder performance.  Loose and lively underfoot, the Helio is quite light (approx 6.3lbs/pair) and a worthy choice for skiers seeking a backcountry/touring ski in this weight range.

From the 2022 WWSRA on-snow demo at Mammoth Mountain, California.

Black Diamond Helio Carbon 95 Ski Review (2023) - YouTube

I’d like to see what everyone likes especially if they have multiple pairs of skis. Share your ski, binding and boot.

Comment your setup/quiver.

I own a pair of Helio Carbon's. They are great skis for climbing, but would be my last choice for resort skiing.. way too light for choppy or high speed conditions

Switching from snowboard to ski this year. Mostly Colorado resorts. A little New England. This setup was recommended to me. Good?

When skis get really they typically lose energy translation and feedback. They typically can feel tinny and like you'll get bucked around in variable conditions. This is not the case for the Helio. I would say, hands down the best ski I have ever skied in its weight class

 This ski truly impressed me by its radness. This will be my next spring/summer AT ski hands down!

 This skis was so lively and responsive. It was so enjoyable to shred, held an edge and was super stable at speed. This ski truly impressed me by its radness. This will be my next spring/summer AT ski hands down!

Helio is the AT dream

 The first generation 95 was easy to ski, but not quite zippy enough for a daily driver and not quite nimble enough for objective skiing—while a jack-of-all trades, it felt like a bit of a master of none. I know some lighter folks out there loved this ski (likely getting the ride I got out of the 105s), but I couldn’t quite find their lane. After this winter’s redesign, I am converted.

 For afterwork laps, they power through bad snow, edge on wind board, and charge downhill. Jump turns down icy couloirs feel precise and stable. Once the pow returned, I happily squeezed extravert with a ski that was light and zippy in good snow.

The turning radius feels longer (it isn’t), and engaging the turn feels a bit less ‘snappy’ then the older model did to me–it may be that the new core trades a springy turn initiation for its improved stability, or that a stiffer wood just means a longer effective edge. This isn’t necessarily a con, but I think bigger skiers will like this ski more than smaller skiers. I also wish I had mounted them a touch back to get a bit more float in soft snow (I mounted at boot center).

Icy wind-board and a long ways made for excellent ski testing above the Portage Glacier.
