BLACK CROWS Captis Birdie ski - Womens - 166cm

The Black Crows Captis Birdie is a women's all-mountain ski built for riders progressing through intermediate and advanced terrain, equally at home on groomed runs, variable snow, and light off-piste adventuring. A progressive, softened flex inherited from freestyle skiing makes initiating turns forgiving and intuitive, while an extended sidecut and long effective edge maintain confident grip and stability at higher speeds as skills develop. What sets the Captis Birdie apart in its category is that rare balance between playful approachability and genuine high-speed composure — it rewards creative skiing across all terrain types without demanding technical perfection from the rider.

Features:

• Progressive flex profile borrowed from freestyle ski construction lowers the effort needed to initiate turns, making the ski approachable for intermediate riders building confidence
• Softened tip and tail flex absorbs variable snow and rough off-piste terrain, reducing fatigue and keeping the ski composed through unpredictable conditions
• Extended sidecut geometry increases the length of snow contact through a carved arc, delivering precise edge control on groomed runs without sacrificing manoeuvrability
• Long effective edge provides enhanced stability and grip at high speeds, allowing riders to push their limits as they progress
• Freestyle-derived DNA gives the ski a lively, playful character that rewards creative skiing on side hits, rollers, and uneven terrain
• All-mountain versatility across groomed runs, off-piste, and variable snow makes the Captis Birdie a single-ski solution for resort riding in Australian and New Zealand conditions
• Women's-specific construction tuned to lighter body weights and a typically more forward stance, optimising response and energy transfer through the ski
