Black Diamond Havoc Ski

Item #BLD0454 | 7 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Quick, snappy, stable

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #6 - Telemark Skis and Alpine Touring Skis January 26, 2009

Great all-around ski for everything except the deepest days. Extremely snappy, while these skis love to turn they have no problem opening it up a little for some high speed carving. Light enough to not weigh you down on those long tours yet burly enough to hold an edge on 50 degree ice. I would recommend these skis a single quiver ski for most places. In Utah and other places that get large amounts of snow regularly I would prefer something a little bigger like the Verdict as an all-around ski. I am 5'11", 155 and ski very aggressive and the 185 feels perfect for me.
