Faction Prodigy 4 116mm 179 2023 Skis
Best freeride performance from sustainable production
The Prodigy 4 shares the features of the popular Prodigy 3, but is wider and therefore offers more float for optimum powder days. The 112 mm waist is perfect for deep powder, but still stable enough for hard groomed runs. The Prodigy 4 complements its ability in deep snow with its reliable edge hold and manoeuvrability. Ideal for technical lines in rugged terrain when you're impatiently waiting for the next snowfall.

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.
