Black Crows
Carving purists will find an engaging and high-performing corduroy eater. While its short radius and sporty flex may evoke a slalom ski, the light oversteer provided by the combination of tapered tips and rocker allows you to change the rhythm and shape of your turns on demand, smoothly transitioning from short to medium-range turns—or even skids if that's your preference. The construction, which combines poplar wood and fiberglass, gives the Octo a solid and confidence-inspiring feel while remaining light and agile underfoot. This sensation is further enhanced by its 84mm width, facilitating swift edge-to-edge transitions.
floatation: light with 84mm at the waist
camber: classic medium camber underfoot with intermediate ski/snow contact for a great balance between stability and handling
sidecut: very short radius, super reactivity with a fast edge to edge transition
flex: intermediate, allowing fun carving

Black Crows is an independent French Freeski brand from Chamonix. Founded in 2006 by pro freeskiers Camille Jaccoux and Bruno Compagnet, black crows was born out of a desire to collide beauty and efficiency into skis
Skiing is who we are
We were established almost 75 years ago by John Monod, a Swiss mountain guide and ski instructor. Quality outdoor gear is what our brand was built upon since 1949.
Sure can! When you purchase both skis and bindings from us, we mount for free! Once you place your order, one of our customer service associates will reach out with needed info. If you purchase skis only, you must be able to come by the store with your boots and bindings for mounting. We will not accept bindings by courier.
Skis count as an oversized item therefore we will charge a flat rate of $21 on top of your selected shipping method on every order. For more information about shipping costs, see our shipping policy here.
