2027 Black Crows Captis Skis with Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings

The 2027 Black Crows Captis with Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings is a light, nimble all-mountain twin tip that delivers energy and precision across a wide range of resort terrain. With a 90 mm waist and a quick-turning profile, the Captis excels on groomers, through moguls, and in tight trees. For skiers who want a playful ride without venturing into wide-waist territory, the Captis brings balance, pop, and versatility to every run. We paired the Captis with the Tyrolia Attack 14 GW because of the Attack’s light weight, reliability, and ease-of-use for all mountain and freeride skiers. Additionally, ample elastic travel and direct power transmission function to ensure these bindings cater perfectly to the needs of demanding freeriders.

Why we like it:

The Captis is just flat-out fun. It brings a refreshing mix of liveliness and control to the table, handling short turns with ease while feeling smooth and intuitive on edge. It’s agile, energetic, and perfectly suited to all-mountain exploration, especially in terrain that rewards quick reflexes and creativity.

Who it's for:

Designed for intermediate to advanced skiers who want a forgiving yet responsive ski that feels light and maneuverable underfoot. If you spend your days bouncing between trees, bumps, and groomers—and love to make a lot of turns while doing it—the Captis is a great fit.

Highlights:

A poplar core and fiberglass layup give the Captis a lightweight and responsive feel. Its double rocker profile allows for quick pivots and smooth turn transitions, while the moderate camber underfoot keeps it grounded with dependable edge hold. The shorter turn radius and softer flex make it especially approachable and playful for a wide range of skier types. With a low stand height of just 17 millimeters, the 2027 Tyrolia Attack 14 offers an impressively close connection to the snow, delivering precise power transmission and a confident, locked-in feel. The FR Pro3 toe piece allows for a full 180 degrees of boot release, enhancing safety in a variety of fall scenarios, while the AFS (Anti-Friction Slider) ensures reliable re-centering and consistent release characteristics. Built to withstand hard use, the Attack 14 combines durability with performance, making it a go-to option for aggressive skiers who demand trust in their gear.

Things to consider:

This ski prioritizes agility over burliness. Its softer flex and narrower waist aren’t designed for high-speed stability or deep snow performance, so skiers looking for more power or float may want to size up—or check out a more robust option.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Captis skis true to size. Sizing up can help increase stability at speed, while standard or slightly shorter lengths maximize maneuverability in tight terrain and park features.
