Black Crows

Nocta 2022

No matter how much new tech keeps getting developed, the big, fat, fully rockered plank still reigns supreme for smashing through a couple feet of pow. And when it comes to big fat fully rockered planks, the Black Crows Nocta Skis might just be the best in the business. They're 122mm underfoot with shovels so big you could actually dig a hole with them. They're built around lightweight poplar and paulownia cores for even more float than is already provided by the oversized geometry. And they have an extra long sidecut to match the long rocker profile, giving them stability at speed, and making them surprisingly fun carvers. If you need float for days on your next powder slashing excursion, grab a pair of Noctas on the way out the door.
