The Atris remains a staple in the Black Crows lineup, and returns unchanged for 2025. With plenty of rocker and splay, the Atris is incredibly maneuverable in soft snow and excels in technical and tight terrain. It has the energy and pop to satisfy creative skiers, and the stability to track confidently through chop, crud, and on hardpack.

Why we like it:

The Atris is one of the most versatile off-piste skis we’ve found and plays to the strengths of creative freeride skiers.

Who it's for:

Advanced and expert skiers who consider the mountain their playground will get the most out of the Atris.

Highlights:

The Atris from Black Crows caters to those with a playful and creative style of skiing who demand both maneuverability and performance out of their skis. A poplar wood core creates a solid flex for power and stability on firm snow, while a softer tip complements the substantial rocker profile, offering impressive maneuverability in soft snow for quick turns in tight or technical terrain. Fiberglass adds a nice bit of pop to the Atris, keeping it plenty playful for skiers who like to get creative with their line choice.

Things to consider:

If you live in a place that doesn’t get a lot of fresh snow, you probably don’t need the width of a 105mm ski and will prefer something narrower and more frontside oriented. The Atris has a long turning radius, so if you’re someone who enjoys making lots of short turns on hardpack, this is not your ski.

Fit & sizing considerations:

As the Atris has quite a bit of rocker and splay, it does ski on the short side, especially in soft snow. Skiers looking for the utmost maneuverability in tight terrain can stick with their regular length, while those looking for more stability at speed for open, high speed turn shapes can size up.
