Riding style
All-Mountain Freestyle/Park Ski for advanced shredders. This ski comes with all the features you need as an ambitious park rider. However, the directional shape makes this ski very versatile, perfect for freestyle riding all over the mountain.
Shape
This ski comes with a Directional Twin shape, the nose is a few millimetres wider than the tail, with a central binding position. Thus the ski offers you the same skiing characteristics forward and switch. However, thanks to the slightly wider nose you get a little more lift in the soft snow. The Surf Zone technology combines a pointed tip and tail shape with the rocker profile. The tapered tips bring the widest part of the ski closer to the middle to avoid unwanted canting.
Profile
This ski comes with a flat camber under the binding and an even rocker in nose and tail. This profile is perfect for any terrain. Precision and pop for park and slope, good uplift in soft snow. The rocker in the nose and tail also creates an additional, loose, canting-free riding experience.
Flex
The medium-hard flex provides precise control at high speeds with high responsiveness.

Freeskis are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new skis should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.

About Faction
Faction started out as a fun project for a group of shred happy ski bums in Verbier one winter. The group wanted to create skis that were affordable, could last 100+ days, survive without servicing and could be stowed away over summer and shine just as brightly once winter rolled around. Doing just that, they have seen great success over the last 12 years. They are united in their love for the mountains and the tools that allow them, us and you to escape there.
