Black Crows Ferox Freebird
Big boards can feel unwieldy and weighty, but not these weapons of fun. Weighing in at 1800g per ski, the Black Crows Ferox Freebird – last year’s Fat Touring Ski of the Year – is far from heavy yet it brings full-width, powder-chasing into the touring category.
Tech-wise, you’re looking at 3D semi cap construction with a poplar/paulownia wood core.
Combined with the mix of glass and carbon fibre, this gives a lovely compromise between flex and stiffness.
With a 136mm tip and a 126mm tail, this ski has a powerful 21m radius but the rocker feels like a twin-tip and makes it feel super nimble.
Perfect for deep pow hunting in the trees on stormy days.
Verdict
A lovely compromise between flex and stiffness, perfect for deep pow hunting in the trees on stormy days.
