black crows Corvus Freebird

It is designed as a hybrid. While it is light enough for long backcountry tours, its construction—specifically the titanal plate and 107mm waist—provides the stability and dampness needed for aggressive resort skiing.

The 107mm width provides ample float in deep powder, but the classic camber underfoot ensures you still have reliable edge hold when you encounter hardpack or wind-scoured alpine terrain.

This ski is built for advanced to expert skiers who want a single setup that can handle big mountain lines and backcountry touring without feeling flimsy or unstable at high speeds.

Not significantly. While the poplar and paulownia core keeps the weight down, the addition of carbon, glass fiber, and a titanal plate under the binding area adds the necessary dampness to absorb vibrations and keep the ski planted.

With a 21m turn radius, the Corvus Freebird prefers medium to long-radius turns. It is stable and predictable when you are opening it up on wide-open faces, though it requires a bit more effort to initiate quick, tight turns in technical terrain.

The progressive rocker in the tip and tail helps the ski plane on top of soft snow and makes turn initiation smoother, while the long camber section underfoot maintains the power and grip you need for firmer conditions.
