The Helio Recon 88 is the classic, workhorse touring ski for the dedicated backcountry skier aiming for multi-day hut trips, classic traverses, or ski mountaineering objectives. The 88mm waist, rockered profile with camber underfoot, and short turning radius inspire confidence and control as snow conditions harden. Made in Austria, the poplar wood core and ABS sidewalls, combined with dampening technology borrowed from the award winning Helio construction, deliver a smooth, powerful ride. The Helio Recon 88 emphasizes touring and ski performance while withstanding season after season of abuse.
