The 2016-17 season marks the tenth anniversary of Chamonix-based Black Crows and also the brand’s second year appearing on North American ski shop walls. Among its many offerings, the Camox received rave reviews from our testers, including, “Charged hard with on-point stability and good pop,” “Quite playful, good on edge” and “Pivots superbly and ollies off ‘errythang.’” Its poplar core provides dampness in a lightweight package, and carbon Kevlar stringers ensure excellent stability and torsional rigidity. Its mix of tip and tail rocker and camber underfoot translates to top-notch handling through the trees and bumps and rip roarin’ good times on the open slopes.
