The Black Diamond Guru Ski combines the classic shape and low weight of a traditional alpine touring board with the increased stability and performance that modern skiers demand. This forgiving, easy-to-turn ski boasts more stability than its narrow waist suggests. A relatively thin profile makes the Guru quick edge-to-edge and keeps the weight nice and light for longer tours.

Bottom Line: The Black Diamond Guru Ski presents a spry, lightweight option for modern AT skiers.

Had a great time testing these skis. It was right after I had bought a pair of something else, so I didn't have the cash to pull the trigger on these friendly friends, but I remember having amazing turning control, especially important since I'm no expert on the slopes. I'd recommend these after my 1-day trial period, 4 1/2 stars!

i'm a 6' 225lb beginner free-heeler in australia(our snow is mostly "wet elephant snot"). looking at these in a 170cm for mostly cruisy inbound but want a bit of freedom to explore sidecountry at a later stage. or should i consider the stigma? prepared to put up with a slower progression rate due to equipment selection. cheers.

Guru is way to skinny and small. You will probably have more fun on a stigma, wider tip will keep you turning in the snot!

The specs are wrong for these skis. They are actually much thinner. 75mm waist. Not much of a powder ski of course.
