Light, simple and efficient, the Navis Freebird is a ski that has been well-designed for touring.
“It’s good on the climb but really comes into its own on the descent. steeps, hard or wind-blown snow, powder or spring snow, it will take you anywhere. This is the ski for you if you’re an expedition-type skier but it’s also perfectly suited to small day tours.” – Bruno Compagnet.
102mm dedicated to adventure.
striking a balance between fatness and skiability, with alpine style and front progressive rocker – the navis freebird is shaped for both far-off quests and everyday missions.
freebird gene 2 chassis
paulownia and poplar core coated in two and three directional carbon and glass fibre.
early rise tail
the navis’ squared and progressive tail makes it playful in soft snow without compromising its alpine character on hardpack.
the nitty-gritty
nice width: 102mm waist.
front progressive rocker and lightly tapered sidecut = good carving stability.
long classic camber = classic camber underfoot with extensive ski/snow contact for alpine-style turns.
progressive tail = less tail washout and easier pivot initiation.
lighter core: 3.3kg per pair in 179cm.
