From the manufacturer

Redesigned with a brand-new shape, the Black Diamond Helio Carbon 102 is a hard-charging, do-it-all ski. 

It balances playful, pow-skiing performance with a lightweight build that handles well in variable conditions and technical terrain. The Helio 102 features a pre-preg carbon fiber layup with full-perimeter ABS sidewalls for improved dampness and a smooth ride, while the all-new poplar wood core keeps things playful and flowy in variable conditions. A rockered tip and tail are made to slash turns, while a slightly heavier construction reduces chatter. The Helio Carbon 102 is a hard-charging powder ski for year-round, backcountry performance.
