The Draco Freebird Ski w/ Touring Skins rewards a drifty, playful style
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I toured a steep couloir on the Draco Freebird Ski w/ Touring Skins and found myself washing the twin tail out through the tightest section instead of braking on edge. Once things opened up, the camber underfoot held a surprisingly firm grip for a ski this playful."
Black Crows built the Draco Freebird Ski w/ Touring Skins for the tourer who wants the descent to matter as much as the climb. A twin tip shape and double rocker profile invite a loose, drifty style, letting you wash the tail sideways to shed speed in a steep couloir instead of fighting it on edge. Classic camber underfoot keeps the running surface short for quick pivots in soft snow, while still delivering real bite once you're back on firmer terrain.
A paulownia and poplar core reinforced with fiberglass keeps the ski honest on the skin track without chasing the lightest weight in the lineup, because this is a freeride ski that happens to tour, not the other way around. A firm, progressive flex and slightly straight sidecut ask for an engaged, active pilot, rewarding riders who ski with intent rather than hesitation. The included Draco Pilus skins are pre-cut to match, so the whole setup climbs as confidently as it descends.

Black Crows For the Joy of the Turn
Black Crows was founded in 2006 in Chamonix by pro skiers Bruno Compagnet and Camille Jaccoux, who set out to build the freeride ski they couldn’t find. Their first model, the Corvus, charged steep alpine faces with power and playfulness. Today, the brand blends French style, clean design, and a love of skiing to inspire confidence and joy on snow.
Phantom Glide By DPS Skis
This ski is compatible with Phantom Glide, the long-lasting base treatment from DPS Skis. Backcountry technicians apply and UV-cure it before the skis ship, so they arrive ready to ride with no waxing needed.
How It Works
Applied By Backcountry Techs
Backcountry technicians treat and UV-cure every pair in the shop before it leaves the warehouse, so the skis arrive ready to ride with no setup required.
Glide That Outlasts Wax
Wax sits on top of the base and wears off in a few days. Phantom Glide bonds into the base, so glide stays fast and consistent from cold powder to spring slush.
No More Wax Days
Phantom Glide replaces scraping, ironing, and shop visits with a quick base cleaning using the Phantom Glide Base Care Kit. The formula is made without PFAS.
Mounted And Ready To Go
When skis, bindings, and boots are purchased together, a Gearhead Expert mounts the bindings before the order ships.
