Product Info

The perfect ski for the freestyle-oriented skier coming out of the park who wants to mix it up on the upper mountain and start using some of those hard-learned tricks out in the general admission playground, the Faction Candide 2.0 Skis sport a 102 mm waist for the utmost in versatility and full twin rocker for confident switch maneuvers.

Product Details

Rocker Type

325 mm Tip Rocker / 2 mm Camber / 310 mm Tail Rocker

Flex

Flex Rating7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Sidecut

Symmetrical SidecutThe same width at the tip and tail gives these skis a generous, symmetrical sidecut which translates to a shorter turn radius and snappy feeling between turns.

Shape

Symmetrical True TwinThe same width at the tip and tail gives these skis a generous, symmetrical sidecut which translates to a shorter turn radius and snappy feeling between turns. An identical twin tip height ensures effortless switch skiing for all your freestyle needs.

Core

Poplar Beech CorePoplar is a light-colored, durable softwood that flexes and pops nicely as well as having great vibration absorption capabilities. The darker hardwood, beech, adds stiffness and rebound. The results are a reasonably light ski that grips and is snappy between turns - always maintaining a soft enough flex to butter all over the mountain.

Laminates

Carbon Stomp PadCarbon reinforcement underfoot adds additional strength to a freestyle ski, where it matters most. As well as protecting the wood core against heavy duty impact on rails, this carbon reinforcement underfoot adds stability and vibration absorption under your boots, so that stomped landings feel better, both for you and your skis.

Sidewalls

Full Strength SidewallThis construction 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 wood core, edges and topsheet from impacts and outside damage.

Micro CapA hybrid of a premium sandwich sidewall construction fused with a lightweight, durable cap construction. With micro-cap, the sandwich construction provides awesome edge hold and torsional stability while the ski's topsheet wraps around and meets the sidewall, protecting the fragile joint that can be prone to chipping.

Binding Compatibility

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