Immerse yourself into a deep ski culture universe, rich from its diversity. This is the best moment to try out our skis for free and get advice straight from crows who know them by heart.

Our ski collection is curated into four categories: big mountain, all-terrain, resort, and touring, totaling 26 models. These categories embody our vision of skiing, guided by four timeless principles that are woven into all our skis: all terrain, all snow, ease, and efficiency. There is a blackcrows ski for every conditions and every skiers.

> Ski Sauvage guided sessions

Ski Sauvage is skiing in all its joyous substance. It’s the shared experience between professional skiers and weekend warriors, longtime skiers and pristine beginners—of turns and curves traced across the surface of crystallized water. Ski Sauvage is the thrill of chasing fresh lines on new skis, carving ephemeral geometrical tracks with like-minded crows.

In other words: grab a pair of skis from our wide range of models and let the crows take you on a wild ride through the mountains!

> your Ski Sauvage hosts: Michael Bird Shaffer



There is no one like Michael. His encounter changes forever the perception of the world, because his energy shines upon every element as if a shower of light. It is the bird that skies and flies. Sometimes he is also the man, the one who lives before living.

Originally from Twisp, in the North Cascade in the State of Washington, a remote village in the far-off northwest of the United States. It is here that his parents chose to raise their children, away from the turmoil of the world, surrounded by nature, in the heart of a Christian hippie community. That is where he discovered skiing and espoused freedom. After higher education studies in the ecological sector, he worked for a period for an eco-responsible luggage brand before discovering Chamonix. Since then, his heart released the bird that sings within him.
