2024 Black Crows Anima Birdie | SkiEssentials
Reviewed as the 2024 model.
The Black Crows Anima Birdie is a powerful big-mountain freeride ski designed for soft snow, high speeds, and aggressive lines. Its substantial wood, carbon, fiberglass, and Kevlar construction delivers outstanding high-speed stability, vibration dampening, and surprising edge hold on firmer snow. Rockered tips and tails ensure floatation and pivoting agility, though its hefty overall weight demands strong technique and athletic piloting.
“seemlessly integrates power with maneuverability.”
