The "missing link" between all-mountain and big-mountain skiing. Made for expert all-mountain skiers, the HELLDIVER with a 90mm waist is an amazing powder ski with a perfect side cut to permit fast carving on fresh and packed snow and dominate the crud.
“CA” in the model refers to the carbon laminates in this version of the Helldiver. You can get it with metal, too (Helldiver TI, $1,499). The latter might deliver more edge-grip and stability, but it’s the carbon—strong, lightweight—that’s responsible for the CA’s defining trait: a quickness that’s surprising in a ski this wide. Its flotation is unassailable, and a strong, stiff tail defies you to leave any turn unfinished
