Designed while listening exclusively to Lynyrd Skynard's "Free Bird," the engineers at Black Crows intended for the Navis Freebird Skis to be to the skier what wings are to a bird - sheer freedom. Whether you're exploring the Alps, Cascadia's finest peaks, or spending your summer searching for powder in the Andes, this is an expedition ready ski that will still perform on a variety of snow surfaces during the descent. Featuring a lively, but not to stiff core, a 19 m turn radius, a rocker / camber / rocker profile, and an incredibly light build, the Black Crows Navis Freebird Skis are high performing free touring machines that slay both the ascent and descent.
Single Beak and a Half | 12% Early Rise Tail / 67% Camber / 21% Tip Rocker – Tip rocker with a touch of rocker in the tail provides easy pivoting and all terrain edge and turn control. Single Beak and a Half gives you the possibility of driving the ski "classically" from the front or taking a more freeride, centered stance approach.
Early Rise Tail – Long, flat, progressive rising tail producing a very light rocker profile. Increases pivot in the tail when flat while producing the power and carving ability of a flat tail on edge.
Freebird Gene 2 Core – Torsion box construction ideal for wider skis with tip to tail Paulownia/Poplar wood paired with triaxial and biaxial carbon laminates ensures optimal weight reduction while maintaining a lively downhill feel.
Triaxial & Biaxial Fiberglass
Carbon
ABS Sidewalls – Durability and shock absorption across all snow and terrain.
Semi Cap – Durable construction that retains the edge power of sidewall construction while limiting chipping of the topsheet at the tip and tail of the ski.
Die Cut Base – Mechanically die-cut base that is assembled by hand for ultimate precision. Stone ground 34 times for a smooth, fast ride.
Freebird Edges – Designed for touring, these lightweight edges are precise and durable.
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
