Our testers concur that the Black Crows Daemon is as playful as a puppy and can carve like Freddy Krueger, making it an ultra-versatile, do-everything offering. “Great directional, all-mountain tool,” said one tester. Another said, “Pivots and smears super easily, yet rails turns on groomers.” The Daemon achieves this balance thanks to a full reverse camber profile that allows for easy pivoting and maneuverability and a 120 cm-long plate of Titanal (at 183 cm) that brings stiffness and stability to the table. A more rigid flex underfoot with softer tips and tails help round out this elusive do-everything frontside ski.
