Black Crows Sato Skis 2026
Black Crows adds the Sato to its already impressive lineup, slotting in as a more forgiving alternative to the Serpo—a ski that’s become a favorite among our test crew in recent years. The Sato shares some DNA with the Serpo but is easier to bend and more energetic at slower speeds, making it less demanding and more playful overall.
Unlike the Serpo and many other popular skis in this category, the Sato features a metal-free wood core, giving it a lively, easy-to-turn feel. This is a frontside-focused all-mountain ski that’s ideal for progressing skiers or anyone who prefers a lighter, more agile feel. It’s not built for trench-digging carves or blasting through crud at top speed. Instead, the Sato shines in technical terrain and mellow groomers, where its quickness and energy can really come alive. At 88mm underfoot, it’s not a powder ski or an off-piste charger, but when the trees fill in, its playful personality makes for a fun ride. For skiers who mostly stick to groomers but like to explore when conditions allow—without any urge to race or straight line—the Sato is a great match.
