    FS Black Diamond Helio 105 185cm

    Sold sold sold

    2 days on the hill. 5 days touring. They’re just not for me.

    Mounted twice for alpinist 305 bsl.

    Once at -2.5 and once at -4.5 where the bindings are currently on the ski. Much prefer at the -4.5.

    Skis are in great condition I got a full base grind and tune from the best shop in town before my last tour. Picked up a small base nick as pictured since. Tips of each ski also have a small nick.

    If you want the bindings on them we can talk but they are basically new so I’d not be doing a huge discount on them as I’d have to buy a new pair. Leashes not included.

    Last thing to note is one of the holes for the toe was a spinner and now has an insert.

    $290 shipped.

    Are the 2.5 and 4.5 measurements from true center or from the recommended mount?

    The recommended mount line marked BC for boot center.

    Can you speak to what you didn’t like? Those mounts seem like an aggressive set back. Curious as to what inspired that far back mount point.

    This thread:

    Any Beta on BD Helio 116?
    https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...d.php?t=309008

    And correspondence with a member dewam on here.

    -2.5 I totally overdrive the tip and have to put all the pressure through my heels.

    -4.5 is nice and balanced.

    Others have found the same.

    I want something a little heavier that is less of an adjustment coming from my resort skis.

    Might try and grab some zero g 108’s before they’re gone for good!

    Or maybe some V-Werks skis.
