The Carbon Helio is a jack of trades for any backcountry skier. This ski cuts through stiff snow and crud, but more importantly, it performs like a champ in the powder. Light enough for the uphill and nimble enough for the tight chutes on the down, this ski can handle anything you throw at it.
Ideal for
- Best for backcountry touring
- Performs well in powder
- Surfs and turns like a pro
Not ideal for
- Might be a little too flexible for the resort
- The graphics are meh
The Black Diamond Helio Carbon 95 Skis are the perfect choice for backcountry enthusiasts who demand both precision and playfulness. These mid-sized carbon skis are designed to deliver exceptional performance on soft snow while also providing reliable responsiveness on the way down. With a pre-preg carbon fiber layup and full-perimeter ABS sidewalls, these skis offer improved dampness for a smoother ride. The engineered paulownia core keeps them light enough for long tours, while maintaining a smooth flex and torsional stiffness.
Key Features:
- Playful yet precise: The Black Diamond Helio Carbon 95 Skis balance playful soft-snow performance with precision.
- Lightweight design: The engineered paulownia core keeps the ski light for long tours.
- Improved dampness: The pre-preg carbon fiber layup and full-perimeter ABS sidewalls provide improved dampness for a smoother ride.
- Reliable responsiveness: These skis maintain a smooth flex and torsional stiffness for reliable, responsive skiing on the way down.
- Early rise in tip and tail: Early rise in the tip and tail improves flotation and trail-breaking efficiency.

Alex is the best!!! 💯🙌🏻
5 /5
I’m brand new to snowboarding (but have done other board sports🏄🏻♀️🛹) and know nothing about snowboarding! I’m so thankful for Alex because he was able to find me the perfect board, bindings and boots - all within my budget! He also was able to answer all my questions and get back to me fast! On top of which he checked on me after I received my products to ensure everything fit right and was to my liking which I really appreciate! 😊 Lastly he reminded me of my credits that I had from my first purchase and recommend multiple options for things I can spend it on that are easily forgotten about when your new to snowboarding (even though they’re kinda important - such as gloves, goggles, travel case, etc). Definitely will be recommending Alex to all my friends who are interested in getting into snowboarding and for other friends who are planning on changing snowboards but not sure what is best for them! And for sure will be a returning client - when it’s time to change my gear! 😊🏂

Ethan was fantastic
5 /5
I was doing my own research and it was exhausting to be honest. Saw a youtube video and decided to give this a try. Thank goodness I did. Ethan pointed me in the right direction and even recommended some things I was already interested in. Was able to purchase with confidence and that goes a long way. Good looking out Ethan

5 /5
I’ve spent the last several months researching and accumulating gear for the upcoming season— as a beginner, there is a lot of information out there, and choosing the right board and accessories can be daunting and confusing. Nate went above and beyond to not only make great recommendations for me but to give me lots of choices based on price point, style, goals, and more. He answered all of my questions and was always more than willing to chat with me about all things snowboard. Highly recommend Nate for all your snow sport needs!

I just recently started snowboarding and finally committed to getting my own gears instead of renting. Nick was above and beyond every step of the way! He was able to provide the best recommendations in terms of both quality and skill level while being conscious of my budget. I ran into a bit of a hiccup when I tried price matching with curated and missed out on a deal unfortunately. However, Nick was ever persistent and did everything in his power to get me some store credits which eventually helped me get an even better deal than the one I tried to price-match originally! Highly highly recommend Nick for anyone who is looking to pick up some quality Snowboard gears that are best suited for you while being budget-friendly!!

Great experience

We’ve always used Jake in the past and we’re disappointed that he is no longer with the company. We were matched up with Garrett and he did not disappoint. Garrett was able to find the board my son wanted and price match to another company that was having a sale. Looking forward to working with him again.

Vince was amazing!!!
5 /5
I know nothing about snowboards and my son asked for a board for Christmas. We have been through a lot this year personally and just trying to make the holidays a bit more special for our son. The help I received from Vince was Incredible. He helped me put a board together that my son has been talking about. Well, it will surely be a surprise for him! Vince's knowledge was so helpful. He gets it! He knows what the younger ones want but helped me put it all together! Truly thankful!!! I highly recommend Vince!

All my questions were answered and he gave me some recommendations that fit what I was looking for. I would recommend this to anyone who needs assistance when it comes to finding the right snow sports gear. Thank you Chris!
