Dakine does on some, but theyre mostly diagonal carry, which is equal to or better than cross. The heli pro has a cross carry for snowboards, i dont see why it wouldnt work for skis

diagonal is not equal to cross, unless you're skiing center mounted. But if you've got your skis on you pack you're probably not skiing center mounted. Crossed is totally balanced and the only way to go if you're not traversing a super steep slope.

I've got the northface off chute, carries cross, or diagonal either way. Best carry system out there.

the heli pro does not do the x carry. but the diagonal like in the pic is good unless the skis are really fat. I have a pic in my profile with madens it it and its kinda pushing it.
