Same Model, Different Year
Product Info
The Black Crows Captis Skis are double rockered all-mountain rockets with a ton of pop and easy pivot handling that begs for a healthy portion of groomers with a side of terrain park wizardry. Spin, butter and rail switch to you heart's content - the Captis' Double Beak Rocker (French for tip and tail rockered) profile makes it all seem like second nature.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Double Beak Rocker – Forgive the bird obsession, it's a Black Crows thing - "Double Beak" simply means tip and tail rocker with camber underfoot.
Shape
Directional Rockered Tail – Increases maneuverability and versatility without sabotaging the ski's responsiveness and alpine character.
Core
Poplar – Reactive and trustworthy, a single species Poplar wood core provides a consistent, poppy tip to tail flex.
Laminates
Triaxial & Biaxial Fiberglass
Sidewalls
Semi Cap – Durable construction that retains the edge power of sidewall construction while limiting chipping of the topsheet at the tip and tail of the ski.
ABS Sidewalls – Durability and shock absorption across all snow and terrain.
Base
Printed Base – Stone ground 34 times for a smooth, fast ride.
Edges
Fat Edges – These thick freeride edges are denser, stronger and more resistant than conventional edges.
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.
- Skis: No Bindings

Ability Level:
Intermediate-Advanced

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Turning Radius
Medium 17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.
- Core/Laminates: Wood

Tail Type:
Partial Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Partial Twin Tip Partial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
