Black Crows Orb Freebird skis, Yellow
With its universal width of 90 mm and the reduction in weight, the orb freebird skis will save you a lot of effort. You won't struggle in deep snow, and thanks to its low weight, it's perfect for hikes with great elevation and multi-day crossings. During the descent , the ski is easy to control and floats excellently in soft snow. At the same time, it maintains a great grip on hard and icy snow. During demanding hikes, the spring firn turns into powder snow as the altitude increases, but it has no chance to surprise you on the versatile orb freebird skis.
Driving experience in powder and hard snow
The ideal width of 90 mm creates sufficient buoyancy in soft snow, the ski does not twist and you can easily change its direction. On the hard surface, it will definitely help you stay on the edge. Front rocker and classic camber improve buoyancy and give the ski stability, thanks to which it does not bite even in blown snow. Softer tip and foot and overall tuned stiffness ensure that the ski does not cut in soft snow, but floats on the surface. The rigid center with titanal (50 cm) ensures perfect stability even on icy surfaces.
A good grip will give you confidence on difficult descents and during fast driving in long bends
The right ratio between longitudinal and transverse stiffness is the key to stability and easy handling. For your feeling of maximum safety and security, Julien Regnier has included the following elements in the orb freebird model:
- Titanal reinforcement under the binding (50 cm) - dampens vibrations, gives the ski peace and grip - stability at speed.
- Carbon along the entire length - distributes the load along the entire length of the ski - high torsional stiffness.
- Fiberglass - high torsional rigidity and long service life - the ski does not jump in the arc.
- Classic camber – sufficient contact of the ski with the snow – the edge holds well even at higher speeds.
You will appreciate the simple handling in narrow and steep chutes
When riding in open terrain, it is often necessary to change direction quickly to safely avoid a rock or bump. The simple handling of the Orb Freebird skis will allow you to enjoy more varied and challenging terrain without losing confidence and a sense of security. The main advantage of black crows skis is the ease of driving and easy control, whether you are a seasoned skier or trying skialpy for the first time.
- Rocker on the tip - shortens the contact of the ski with the snow - you can easily put on the arch, easy pivoting.
- Softer tip and foot, stiff middle - the ski bends easily, creating a turning angle - you can easily and effortlessly direct the ski where you want, without losing technique.
- Gently raised heel - shortens the ski's contact with the snow - you can quickly change direction or brake.
- 18 m radius – the ideal radius for free terrain, which dynamically shortens – you can easily and quickly change direction while driving, the skis do not bend on a steep slope and it is stable even in a long curve.
