The Black Crows Mentis Freebird expands the freebird nest with an ultra-light ski. The arrival of the Mentis comes from the desire to develop a very light performance ski but with good skiability for this type of range. A width of 80mm, wider than a competition ski but with a featherweight. Black Crows chose a paulownia core, a titanal reinforcement under the bindings, and a mixed glass/carbon fiber construction. The Black Crows Mentis Freebird weighs 1980g/pair in 171cm and will be available in 4 sizes (157, 164, 171, 178 cm) at a price of €769.95.
