Black Crows Navis Freebird Touring Ski - 185.8 cm

Widely recognized as one of the best alpine touring skis in skiing, the Navis Freebird only gets better for 2019-2020. Black Crows extended the side lines of the ski to improve edge grip and stability at high speed. They also added a titanal plate underfoot for extra strength and binding reinforcement. Other than those updates, the Navis Freebird is still the go-anywhere, ski-everything model that it was in previous seasons. Long front rocker makes for a playful, floaty ride in powder, while a splash of early rise in the tails make the skis easy to release when you need to. Those traits pay dividends whether you are meadow-skipping on the pass or touring out of a hut for a week. For big spring lines, abundant camber underfoot and relatively stiff flex keep you upright and confident in pinner couloirs or down 14ers. The Navis Freebird brings the full backcountry package for expedition skiers and casual now-and-then folks who keep it safe and simple.
