Black Crows Orb Freebird Skis 2024

The Orb Freebird suits experienced touring skiers who value manageable weight and reliable turn control. Its moderate width is useful for routes with a mix of climbing and technical descents.

Choose it for a mountain-focused setup where edge support and efficient handling matter.

A 90 mm waist makes the Orb Freebird a practical option for mixed touring conditions and firmer snow. Front rocker adds lift when softer patches appear.

It provides a narrower alternative to wider freeride touring models for days when the route involves varied snow surfaces.
