2026 Black Crows Mirus Cor Skis with Marker Griffon 13 ID Bindings

The 2025 Black Crows Mirus Cor with Marker Griffon 13 ID Bindings is a standout freestyle and carving fusion union, offering a distinct experience in the ski market. With its precise yet playful nature, the Mirus Cor perfectly balances various attributes, inviting experimental edge angles and imaginative turn shapes. It may not suit everyone, but for those it does, it's an unparalleled choice. We paired the Mirus Cor with the Marker Griffon 13 ID because of the Griffon’s precision and reliability for all mountain and freeride skiers. With a robust construction and all the best tech, the Griffon 13 is a popular high-performance binding choice for wider-bodied skis for good reason.

Why we like it:

The Mirus Cor’s uniqueness and rewarding performance set it apart. In a crowded market, it’s easy to overlook such a distinctive ski, but the Mirus Cor demands attention with its playful charm. The thrill it provides is unmatched, delivering a fun-factor that goes beyond the norm. It’s a ski that makes you smile, giggle, and feel exhilarated with every turn, offering sensations that are truly extraordinary and one-of-a-kind.

Who it's for:

This ski caters to advanced to expert skiers who already own a range of skis and seek something exceptionally fun and playful in a carving format. It may be challenging for intermediate and less experienced skiers to fully grasp its capabilities.

Highlights:

The Mirus Cor features a poplar woodcore combined with fiberglass laminates, providing a stable yet lively and poppy flex. A titanal plate underfoot enhances durability and edge grip while also serving as a binding reinforcement and vibration damping method. Generous tip and tail rocker facilitate easy turn initiation and release, amplifying its playfulness. Additionally, the swallow tail design offers some torsional forgiveness for smoother turn exits. As we’ve come to expect from Marker, there’s no shortage of tech packed into the Griffon 13 binding. Marker’s Triple Pivot Elite Toe and Inter-pivot 3 Freeride Heel systems work in tandem to provide improved edge grip and control, as well as helping to mitigate vibrations for a smooth ride. A cleverly placed anti-ice rail sits on top of the toepiece and can be used to scrape off those pesky clumps of snow and ice that accumulate on the sole of your boot. With Multinorm (MN) boot compatibility, the Griffon 13 is a versatile and reliable choice for a huge range of skiers and applications.

Things to consider:

The 2025 Black Crows Mirus Cor is highly specialized and may not be ideal for a single-ski quiver. It performs best at intermediate speeds on groomed snow and struggles at high speeds. Its dramatic sidecut requires consistent edge engagement, making it less suitable for flat footed skiing.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Skis are true to size, but sizing down slightly is common for carving skis.
