For a quality product dedicated to the pleasure of doing something you love.
We aim to share this approach of skiing by building freeride tools destined to fulfil this search for pleasure in all it’s forms. We therefore build all our skis, whatever their defining strengths, to correspond to the 4 criteria which define our vision of skiing : all terrain, all snow conditions, ease, performance.

anatomy
core
Traditional sandwich construction. At black crows we like our skis strong and resistant, which means we like sandwich structures. But be aware, only certain sandwiches. Those made with love which don’t leave a bad taste in our mouth. Thanks to its mechanical properties, its durability and the infinite number of combinations possible in terms of flex and torsion, wood remains the choice of connaisseurs in top of the range skis.

We have developed 4 different construction concepts for our 2012 / 2013 range. This means 4 identities, 4 strengths and of course 4 similarities : these constructions are all designed to perform on any type of snow and terrain, whatever your style, goal of the day or momentary urge. Of course beyond these few defining lines… each to his own as we say, the ski remains human (for now). Here are our four sides :

A twin tip ski has raised tips front and back, for a freestyle and switch orientated use, but besides these more exclusive disciplines, the twin tip brings a comfort and ease of use to downhill skiing.
This consists of an alternative to the twin tip which offers a gentler tail for more all-round use, without changing the responsiveness and the alpine character of the ski. The semi-rounded tail allows for great handling and float for narrow turns, whilst preserving its directional capacities on hard snow.

Double radius tail & front rocker sidecut
Front & back rocker sidecut
Double Radius : the principal of a double radius consists of moving the widest zone of the ski further back from the tips. In reducing the length of edge in contact with hard snow, the ski gains in ease of rotation and handling, and the whole ski becomes easier to control. So the ski keeps the advantages of extra float and good handling in soft snow, whilst benefiting from a shorter edge contact zone and better handling on hard snow. This shape of ski is well adapted to freeriding : a discipline which by definition evolves on every type of snow, in all types of conditions and all types of mountain. Faced with such demands, the double radius is a very convincing solution : a ski which can rotate quickly for short turns and becomes very stable at high speeds and in straight lines.
The single short radius is the combination of classic tail shape and a front rocker. The double radius tail allows progressive turning, while the front rocker easily stays afloat, as well as facilitating quick rotation and therefore control of speed. By reducing the demands on the front tip in this way, the ski is much more easier to handle and less physical. With its balanced flex, the single short radius creates a very playful and fun ski.
The double rocker shape means that the tip of the ski floats easily as well as the tail. The ski’s central axis is highly dynamic and allows, with its ease of rotation, to have an unrivalled control of speed and direction in deep snow. With its balanced flex, the double short radius provides the ski with amazing endurance, handling, and, if you wish, without limits.

Our freeride range is divided into two segments : big mountain and all mountain, from the widest to the narrowest of our models. Each of these models has its own specialities and unique qualities based on their purpose and demands. Yet always with the black crows philosophy in mind : skis made for all types of snow and terrain. From the first to the last snowflake, from the nearest bowl to the furthest hidden slopes. Free skiing, depending on how you approach it, is one of the last remaining zones of complete freedom and total autonomy.

The freeride has for a long time been what each person made it, everyone having their own vision and definition, when all it really consists of is free skiing off-piste. Put simply, freeriding is built on an elementary trilogy : man, skis and snow-covered mountains. The technical level hardly matters, it is after all a personal commitment involving authenticity and passion. Oh, and sharing, if you like.

Our most slender all mountain model is a formidable off-piste and piste ski which is equally at ease on smooth snow as it is in changeable and choppy conditions.
Responsive with an incredible all mountain edge hold, the orb is a extremely touring gripping and reassuring ski. It lends itselfsteep to the most extreme purposes as it does to more backcountry gentlefs uses.

freestyle park
“In 2013, the damn kids seem to reinvent the laws of gravity every winter, equally in the park as freeriding off piste, and are reaching a technical and aesthetic level which is quite simply phenomenal. The evolutions of equipment and infrastructures responded to the creativity of this new generation and also made the sport much more accessible. Jibbing along the piste and having your first kicker session is now open to everyone, the pleasure of playing with your skis comes very quickly and opens the door to a rapid progression” Julien Regnier The new viator, doted with the flat double beak technology, is there to serve this creativity practised in the park and around the piste. For jibbing and carving in all forms, this playful, sparkling, and resistant ski, available in 4 sizes and as many colours, isn’t made to look at.

Some of the black crows veterans come from the era of what is now known as “old school” freestyle, an acro-artistic discipline of unlimited perspectives where we used somewhat long skis and poles, and were sometimes naked. Our bodies had been forged on the mogul fields, ski jumps and acroski pistes, and these memories of our younger years spent trying to do a double daffy or a spread eagle with grace and style left their mark on us.

2012-2013
For us, a high mountain ski is a simple equation : light but skiable, trustworthy and solid. In our new high mountain freebird range, we offer 2 new types of construction with 2 different shapes. This season sees the beginning of a new black crows project, always with the same ambition, highly efficient on the uphill and unlimited pleasure on the way down.
2012-2013
Ski touring is nowadays divided into two easily distinguished sectors. One which aims for performance, uphill speed records, rugged and audacious courses where ski-mountaineers rapidly climb steep slopes with skis lighter than a crow’s feather. The other, in the midst of a revolution, is constantly searching for better snow and conditions, far from the bustle of ski resorts, the objective to contemplate the surroundings and share the physical effort. Add to that the travelling, the discovery of new mountain ranges, learning about mountain skills and autonomy, you have all the values which carry our vision of this unique means of transport.

For 2013 the range has grown a lot, so we had to simplify the understanding and visual identity of the skis. The big change this year is to have single colour on each ski : block colours, monochrome with varying shades. So each range is one colour in three different shades, with different graphic positioning depending on the size of the ski. As of now, a big Corvus can be distinguished from a small Corvus by the arrangement of the colours, rather than the colour itself.
Multiplied, this V – or chevron - becomes a flock, representing the black crows community. As such, the association of chevrons naturally became the brand’s identity. “The black crows spirit is also a community of skiers with similar passions and ways of life. A squadron of free and unique skiers. Even if crows don’t fly in flocks, the six chevrons together resemble birds in flight. The originality of this logo is that it has an infinite number of possibilities, creating an illusionary perspective, in optical art style.
The monochrome skis of the Freebird light touring range (red or yellow) are a new approach which treats the skis as a whole object rather than a composition of base - edge - topsheet. It’s a monobloc appearance, to be combined with monochrome bindings and a monochrome outfit. One way to transform yourself into a red or yellow albino.” Yorgo Tloupas, known as “the Greek”
2012-2013
The black crows logo is a V form evoking the silhouette of a bird in flight. “I wanted to create a simple and geometric symbol, in keeping with the ski logos of the 50 s, 60 s, and 70 s. No 3D, no shadow, no multiple colours, just a monochrome silhouette” explains Yorgo. “The simplest drawing of a bird in flight is the V. Like when a child draws birds. And finally, an upside down V becomes a mountain, the sommets to conquer.”

The furtis is equipped with a reinforced aluminium point to consolidate it’s base and a grip handle over a third of it’s length for an easy and effective grip in all situation. A concealable wrist strap system allows the user to choose their own preference. For the finishing touch, a 9 cm multi-purpose basket moulded with the black crow’s logo finishes the stem. Aiming to propose a highly technical product with minimal ecological impact, has been working for 18 months with Bcomp to develop this first flax fiber based composite pole. Specialist in natural fibre composites, Bcomp, at black crows’ request, took on the challenge of combining the demands of performance with the durability of renewable materials. This partnership has benefited from the latest technology whilst prioritising the environmental aspect, a dimension which is reinforced by an entirely European fabrication and assembly.

For this new collection, black crows presents their first technical accessory, a high performance pole in flax fibre composite. Light, strong and ergonomic, this essential skiing tool was designed with simplicity and efficacity in mind to respond to the demands of every type of skier. To get this result, black crows has joined up with Bcomp, a Swiss company based in natural fibre composites. The fruit of this colloboration is a tube of flax fibre composite, light and resistant like traditional composites such as carbon fibre. The benefits in weight and rigidity, shock absorption and dampening, make this pole a technological boost for any skier.

9 cm diametre nylon basket (polyamide 6-6). Perfectly adapted to freeriding, it allows for a good hold on hard snow and steeps, while delivering a good push in fresh snow. The “custom crow foot basket” (design on the underneath of the basket) allows you to leave a trail of our two-legged friends in the sparkling snow.
long grip handle The choice of a long grip handle allows you to move your hands up and down depending on the slope, snow quality, when touring on the uphill or the downhill, as well as on long traverses ( relieving your back ! ) Whatever the use, you’ll always instant access to the desired length and a good grip.
concealable wrist strap A simple system allows the wrist straps to be fixed to the ski depending on the preferences and goals of each person… For classic freeriding most of us prefer to have wrist straps, but some prefer the long grip system with out the strap. Strapless advantages : No risk of straps catching on your backpack if you decide to slide your poles between your back and your backpack pack. Easy to free hands for ropework or other tasks, especially on steep runs and couloirs : they can be easily planted in difficult snow. Upside down ( handle first ) they are perfect for testing the snowpack. Immediate loss of poles in case of avalanche, minimising risk of injury.
Strapless disadvantages : No strap means possibility of losing your pole. And then gravity takes over. But as Bruno Compagnet says : “In all extreme sports, riders prefer simplicity and efficiency, like a surfers who doesn’t use a leash in the waves. Last winter I only lost my baton once and that was after voluntarily opening my hand…” So if Bruno decided to open his hand, well you can do as you like...
multi-purpose For freeriding, ski touring and steep skiing, all with the same tool. An all-mountain pole, following the direction of our skis, for efficiency in all situations. “ Poles are the only piece of technical ski equipment in which we can allow ourselves some fantasy and originality. If we can combine those characteristiques with perfect tool for the high mountains, then it really becomes interesting. ” Bruno Compagnet
reduction of the environmental impact The Bcomp composite uses 4 times less energy to produce than carbon composite and around 3 times less than aluminium. Ratios for water consumption and CO2 emissions are similar. Possibility of “thermal” recycling by incineration, which isn’t the case for carbon composite. Flax cultivation, weaving, production and assembly all take place in Europe.

22mm diametre flax fibre composite tube. 100% flax fibre composite ( 60% natural materials, 40% epoxy resin ). Intrinsic shock absorption for increased comfort: vibrations disappear 3 to 4 times quicker than in a carbon tube and up to 12 times quicker than in an aluminium tube. Safety gain: in case of breaking, the flax fibre composite does not form sharp / cutting edges like aluminium or carbon. Lower part of the pole in reinforced aluminium alloy “Titanial HF”. Aluminium alloy tube 15 cm long to protect the lower part of the stem from impacts (ie. ski edges)“Tungsten Carbide Flex”ultra-resistant point.

9cm 32cm
2012-2013
22mm diametre flax fibre composite tube. 100% flax fibre composite ( 60% natural materials, 40% epoxy resin ). Intrinsic shock absorption for increased comfort: vibrations disappear 3 to 4 times quicker than in a carbon tube and up to 12 times quicker than in an aluminium tube. Safety gain: in case of breaking, the flax fibre composite does not form sharp / cutting edges like aluminium or carbon. Lower part of the pole in reinforced aluminium alloy “Titanial HF”. Aluminium alloy tube 15 cm long to protect the lower part of the stem from impacts (ie. ski edges)“Tungsten Carbide Flex”ultra-resistant point.
