Black Crows

Octo Ski - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I was surprised by how intuitive the Octo felt on edge. That short turning radius and swallowtail design make carving feel creative and fun. It’s light, responsive, and perfect for lapping groomers when you want something quick and a little unconventional."

The Black Crows Octo Skis put a creative spin on high-performance carving. Designed with a playful swallowtail silhouette and a snappy 84mm waist, these skis transform ordinary corduroy into a dynamic playground. Ideal for those who appreciate precision but crave something with more personality, the Octo delivers a responsive ride that stays smooth and stable at speed.

Underfoot, a classic camber profile offers consistent edge hold, while a light front rocker encourages quick turn initiation and pivot control. The poplar and fiberglass core keeps things lively, and a very short sidecut radius brings razor-sharp agility to tight arcs and short-radius turns. Finished with a semi-cap construction and ABS sidewalls for durability, the Octo is our go-to for skiers chasing energy, edge-to-edge speed, and standout design on frontside terrain.
