A wood core and deepened 3D pockets make the Black Diamond Havoc ski an even stronger candidate for all-mountain assaults on crud, powder, and crust. Versatile by design, the aggressive dual-torsion bow construction ranges nimbly from piste to powder allowing you to ski like a hero no matter the conditions. Specifications based on 175 centimeter length.
Black Diamond Havoc Skis 2010: Imagine a posse of howler monkeys with laser eyes and desire for destruction. Now multiply that by a million, and you’ll get a fraction of the mayhem you’ll be unleashing with Black Diamond’s Havoc ski. Newly revamped for 2010, the award-winning Havocs are specially designed for easy turn initiation and smoother edge hold, even at low speeds and in consolidated snow. An 88mm waist is perfect for technical terrain, while the Dual Torsion Bow Technology™ delivers a balance of maximum stability and nimble versatility. This translates to effortless control, with turns that are quicker than Paris Hilton’s music career. Go wreak some Havoc.
The Havoc has power, stability, and it cruises through powder or crud effortlessly. The Dual Torsion Cross Bow technology distributes pressure proportionally to the entire length of the ski, and the 3D Densolite core provides unequalled torsional rigidity on edge. This all mountain ski with a Turn Radius of 22.5 (183cm), was one of the last two seasonÕs top performers. Although designed for the backcountry, they perform surprisingly well on the hard pack for a ski this wide. They are quick edge to edge and are lively when bounding from edge to edge. For the rider, they have twin tips for landing those tricks.
A softer adaptation of a classic model for easier turn initiation, less effort required and smoother edge hold, Black Diamond's Havoc is optimized for dissecting technical terrain.
A softer adaptation of the classic Black Diamond Havoc for easier turn initiation and a smoother edge hold even at lower speeds.
Whether you’re attacking a dawn patrol tour, free heeling down your favorite bowl or looking for a ski to rip the whole resort with, the Black Diamond Havoc Ski will keep that pow-swallowing grin on your face all day long. The Havoc loves to make turns through uber technical terrain and lay waste to high altitude powder fields after you get to the top of the skin.

You probably don't know how much you want this ski | |
| Rating: |  |
If you're more into ripping than slogging, this ski is probably for you. It's light but stiff, it floats through pow but holds an edge. It kind of a paradox with metal edges ( I was fortunate enough that in the three years I have owned these bad boys I barely ever needed to actually sharpen them though). It doesn't seem like much has really changed on the ski so this review is probably still valid. | |
