Expert verdict

The Black Crows Corvus Freebird Skis are a vibrant choice for those who love the thrill of backcountry skiing. These skis are not just about their eye-catching fluorescent pink color; they offer a perfect balance between downhill aggression and uphill efficiency. The progressive rocker ensures smooth turns and floatation, while the ABS sidewalls provide stability in challenging terrains. The poplar core with carbon fiber laminate keeps them lightweight yet stiff, making them ideal for those who prioritize downhill performance. However, they might not be the lightest for uphill climbs, but the downhill precision more than compensates for it. If you're an adventurous skier who loves pushing boundaries, these skis are your perfect companion.

The Black Crows Corvus Freebird Touring Ski stands out for being a fluorescent pink ski just as much as it stands out for being a strong backcountry daily driver. It balances the backcountry scale between downhill performance and lightweightedness for uphill performance. This is a great aggressive downhill touring ski.

Key Features:

  • Progressive Rocker – The front rocker allows for floatation and faster turn engagement, as well as better performance when breaking trail.
  • ABS Sidewall – The Corvus Freebird has plastic ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) sidewalls that help maintain torsional stability in high-consequence terrain, and also work to maintain edge hold.
  • Poplar Core with Carbon Fiber Laminate – A lightweight core with carbon fiber maintains stiffness throughout for consistent performance on the down and lightweight technology on the up.

Surprisingly awesome.
5 /5
This is a new business model for me: personal expert guiding me through an expensive purchase. I was a little worried this was AI or at least someone who wanted me to spend max money. However, Christian was not pushy, sent me a lot of info when I asked questions, and guided me towards the best items in my budget. I’d definitely recommend Curated.

First time I ever used Curated and I got paired with a stand-up guy (Jared), he helped me through the process of picking a new board - I've been hesitant to pull the plug on a new one but he got me a great deal and gave me the best options that fit my needs on the mountain. Total bro, 100% recommend - made my curated experience easy and stress free.

He responded back asap for just about a week with me about multiple skis and made sure that he curated my exact needs and I purchased skis and bindings and he even adjusted a price to match a deal that I made him aware of . Couldn’t be more happy and can’t wait to test the new set out

Every year at Christmas I try to get my daughter a snowboarding starter kit and its always so hard. The people in sotres kinda treat you like tgeyre better than you if youre looling for a reasonable deal. There's never what you actually want available. Nicholas was super helpful. I told him what I needed and he picked out all the perfect gear for my duaghter. Im so glad I woke up this morning, googled snowboarding starter kits, and Curated was tye first thing that came up in my search. Thanks, Nick. You just made my duaghters Christmas. And you found me a reasonable deal without sacrificing quality and and the little things that made this set special for my diaghter.

I had a great experience. Logan took all the guesswork out of this purchase, explained each spec so I could make the best purchase for my level and progression, and even sourced some extra options to make sure I was 100% happy. 10 out of 10! I won’t make a purchase like this any other way in the future.
