Black Crows: Skiing in the Year 2018

Neon's demons

To accompany the restructuring of its range, Black Crows has simplified its three-dimensional language of interlocking chevrons into impossible perspectives.

For the all-mountain and big-mountain ranges , Black Crows has adopted a bi- or tri-chromatic ski design with a wired treatment, playing on variations in line thickness to anchor the models in a timeless modernity. The world of the film "Tron" meets ancient Greek friezes in a maze of refined lasers.

For Resort skis, chevrons take on volume thanks to gradations in flat tones. The directional dynamism of the surfaces echoes a more alpine and incisive style.

Freebird perpetuates a monochrome logic. Junior skis, meanwhile, play with the playful possibilities of Black Crows chevrons , copied but never equaled. Junior skis play with the playful possibilities of interlocking chevrons, either in a "tetris" ensemble or in alpine camouflage.

Like previous collections, the birdie range plays on more feminine, acidic hues, while retaining the same graphics as the universal models.

Vertis

The new Vertis is a short-radius (15-meter) ski that's both dynamic and playful. With its 85 mm runner, it benefits from a very fast edge-to-edge transmission that stimulates the pleasure of carving and cut lines. Both accessible and high-performance thanks to its intermediate flex , the Vertis is the Black Crows piste ski par excellence.

Daemon

Perfect combination of titanal and inverted camber. A very stable ski with easy, efficient action thanks to the inverted camber. The tonicity of the flex is counterbalanced by the inverted camber, allowing the Daemon to combine speed, rebound and maneuverability.

Atris

The evolution of a flagship model is a delicate mission. Black Crows wanted to make theAtris more stable at high speed and in edge grip without altering its maneuverability and playfulness.

The Black Crows team achieved this by intervening on three variables: radius lengthening, flex softening and a more progressive heel lift. As a result, the Atris performs better at high speeds without compromising handling. The new Atris opens the doors to great skiing with panache.

Ova Freebird

Lighter and easier to handlethe new Ova Freebird has been carefully modernized. On the lightweight side gains 750 grams per pair thanks to a new core made entirely of paulownia and a blend of fibers from glass and carbon2kg 250 in 175cm.

In terms of shape more progressive heel lift, a smoother sidecut and a softer softer flex give the ova freebird more pivoting pivoting while maintaining performance on hard snow.

Atris birdie

Lively all-rounder. The evolution of a flagship model is a delicate task. We wanted to make the atris more stable at high speed and in edge grip without altering its handling and playful character.

Black Crows has achieved this by intervening on three variables: radius lengthening, flex softening and a more progressive heel lift. As a result, the Atris birdie performs better at high speeds without compromising handling. The new Atris birdie lighter and finely softened than its male counterpart, opens the doors to big skiing with panache, and is the preferred choice of female freeride skiers looking for a ski that's efficient in all conditions, on hard snow as well as in the deep.

Daemon Birdie

Powerful, versatile stealth. The Daemon birdie is a perfect alloy of titanal and inverted camber. Ski very stable with easy to put into action and efficient thanks to inverted camber. The tonicity of the flex is counterbalanced by the reverse camber, allowing the daemon to combine speed, rebound and handling.

Vertis Birdie

A new on-track modelwith a lighter core than the universal model, the Vertis Birdie is a ski with a short radius (15 meters), both dynamic dynamic and playful.

With its 85mm skateit benefits from edge-to-edge transition which makes carve and cut lines. At once accessible and high-performance thanks to its intermediate flexthe vertis is the piste ski piste ski par excellence.
