Product Info

Don't let the boys stake claim to all the heroic feats in skiing, elevate your game and equip yourself to take on any villainous conditions the mountain puts in your path with the Faction Herione Skis. An all-mountain rocker/camber/rocker profile keeps things playful and poppy while simultaneously allowing the skis to navigate tight trees and bumps with ease. Capable of turning any terrain into a playground and making the most meager conditions fun, the Faction Heroine Skis can always save the day.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Rocker / Camber / Rocker10 mm rocker in the tip / 5 mm camber underfoot / 5 mm rocker in the tail

Flex

Flex Rating: 2 / 5 (1 Soft - 5 Stiff)

Core

Poplar / Ash CorePoplar is a medium-weight, damp, vibration-absorbing softwood. Ash is a heavier hardwood that compliments the Poplar by increasing stiffness, responsiveness and providing a solid base for the binding screws.

Laminates

Triaxial FibreglassFibreglass is used in two different formats to aid the compressional strength of the core and ensure long-lasting pop.

Sidewalls

Sandwich ConstructionUsed on most Faction skis. A traditional manufacturing method that provides strength, durability, good grip and edge hold. Rubber is used to dampen vibration and bond the base layers to the core.

STP TechnologySTP Technology is a patent-pending process used to press a small wave into the length of the ski. This creates a 'pre-stressed' core with increased torsional strength, letting us use less wood to create lighter, more forgiving skis with above-average edge-grip.

Base

Die-Cut PTEX 4000Used on most Faction skis. Sintered PTEX 4000 base material is more porous and holds wax better than PTEX 2000.

Edges

1.8 mm EdgesUsed on 99% of Faction's skis, the 1.8 mm hardened steel edges are strong and dependable.

Graphics

Gloss ICP8210 TopsheetThicker and harder than Faction's 14/15 topsheets, ICP8210 has a natural high-gloss finish which avoids the need for lacquer and helps the ski look better for longer. Better for the workers in the factory and better for the environment. A small but highly impactful change.

Digital PrintingUsed on Faction's core and women's models, digital printing provides greater flexibility for designing complex graphics and requires no setup process, however the colors are not as bright or strong as the silkscreen method.

Binding Compatibility

We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
