Rocker Type:
Rocker - Camber - Rocker
215mm Tip / 4mm Camber / 215mm Tail
Flex:
Flex Rating: 7 (1 = Soft, 10 = Stiff)
Sidecut:
Elliptical Sidecut: Elliptical Sidecut is made up of a longer radius underfoot and shorter radii in the tip and tail of the ski.
The long radius underfoot means you can pivot faster and easier, while a shorter radius in the tip and tail
result in easier turn initiation. This sidecut allows for a wide variety of turn lengths, angles and mounting
positions.
Core:
Lightweight Poplar Core: Poplar is a light-colored, medium-weight, durable softwood that flexes and pops nicely as well as having
a whole load of vibration absorption capabilities. Used as the only wood in this core, it allows the ski to
pop, butter and stomp like an all-mountain freestyle ski and also have enough torsional stability to grip
impressively on the downhill.
Laminates:
Carbon Stringers: Between 8 and 12 strips of carbon, sandwiching either side of the ski's woodcore, are laid unidirectionally, providing extra stability to the ski without adding weight to the build. Each carbon strip is woven into the fiberglass to provide strength and stiffness in the full length of the ski.
Carbon-Rubber Stomp Pad: A 600mm-long, 15mm-wide carbon/rubber reinforcement underfoot, above the edge, adds strength
where it matters most to this playful all-mountain ski. In addition to protecting the wood core from
heavy-duty impact on rails, the carbon and rubber inlay adds stability and vibration absorption under
your boots, so that stomped landings feel better, both for you and your skis.
Sidewalls:
Full Strength Sidewall: A construction that places strips of protective material along the sides of each core, between the edge and the topsheet. Sidewalls provide the best possible edge hold and stability when the ski is engaged in a turn as well as protecting the woodcore and edges.
Edges:
XL 2.5mm Edges: Fractions of a millimeter might not sound like much, but when it comes to edges, it adds up. The
2.5mm edges add an extra 25% of height to Faction's standard 2mm edge, making for a stronger and more durable ski.
