The Black Crows Orb Freebird is the culmination of years of experience making bomber Alpine Touring Skis by the French designers. In classic Black Crows fashion the ski has every feature you want for long days out in the Backcountry and not a ounce more. The perfect balance between being very lightweight and still being able to be driven hard.
If you've spent any time in Chamonix, you will know the incredible feats that are possible strapped to a pair of Freebirds with a lightweight Tech Binding.
the nitty-gritty
- moderate width: 91 mm waist.
- front rocker: pivot and float.
- medium classic camber: classic camber underfoot with moderate ski/snow contact = a good balance between stability and manoeuvrability.
- titanal reinforcement under the bindings: better hold.
- moderate flex: a tolerant and comfortable ski.
- plastic insert and cut-out on the tail: easier to put skins on.
- lighter core: 2.99kg per pair in 178 cm.
