    That’s such a baller ski. Messed mine up in Switzerland- must resist bump.

    Why is this why it feels so right?

    That made no sense. Thanks Siri.

    Why resist? When it feels so right.

    FS: Black Crows Corvus 188

    One of my biggest downsides with these is constantly being told by randos in the lift line how rad my skis are. It gets old.

    Otherwise, this is becoming my go-to ski.
    focus.

    I completely agree with that statement, I don’t ask people about their skis, why are they asking about mine or making comments beaters…

    Skied my couple years earlier version yesterday for the first day this season. Forgot what a versatile ski this is. Given it's ability to go fast and eat up 3D snow, its really quite accessible at slow speeds and in bumps.

    I own a Atris and a Corvus and my Corvus is my DD. Atris is fun but not nearly as versatile and I like the fact that when I have had enough of turning, I can just destroy chop and bumps. Atris gets tossed too much for that. I would keep the Corvus and drill them.

    Corvus is a bit boring on groomers as it lacks energy/pop due to layup + lack of camber.

    But that layup and lack of camber is also what makes it so easy to ski despite it's massive top end.

    Corvus is better at more things than the Atris.

    That’s for sure.

    ….And there is energy in the ski, it just requires high angles and flexing the ski hard.

    No stored energy like in a camber the energy comes from you and the ski responds accordingly. The more you give the more you get. Also, great ski for the trees.

    Just a shorter, stiffer spring. Nothing wrong with that, but you can’t access it if you’re a beater.
    focus.

    Yeah, if you can’t get rebound from the Corvus you’re not pushing hard enough. I think they’re anything but boring on groomers. They’ll trench and pop you out of the turn if you’re using the side cut

    Lean into them, they're not going to fold up. Or you can wiggle through the trees in powder nice and easy. Groomers? They crush groomers.
