Product Info

The crown jewel of the CT Signature Line, the Faction Candide 4.0 Skis + Look Pivot 18 Ski Bindings are back with a new rocker profile, slimmer waist, and a multiple sidecut design. It still features that same loose feel that wants to go fast, be in the air, and send 'er, but now features a few design tweaks. At 118 underfoot, the new Faction Candide 4.0 Skis are a bit more manageable in the air and in variable conditions, and the added camber underfoot provides that extra bit of bite when things are firm. Toss in a slarve-friendly sidecut, and you've got a pow ski that won't fold when you decide to get ultra-sendy with the boys.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Rocker / Camber / Rocker15 mm of rocker over 300 mm in the tip, 1 mm of camber underfoot, 10 mm of rocker over 250 mm in the tail.

Sidecut

Multi-Radius SidecutsInstead of going directly from sidecut to taper, Faction uses multiple sidecuts to straighten out the ski before the taper. This creates a fluid ride with smooth transitions from carve to slide.

Core

Balsa Flax CoreBalsa is an exceptionally light hardwood. The core is laminated vertically and divided by strips of woven Flax to provide additional torsional and compression strength.

Laminates

Titanal PlatesTitanal plates secure the binding screws. The one peice design fits most touring bindings with center screws.

Sidewalls

Sandwich ConstructionUsed on most of Faction's 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.

Micro-Cap ProtectionContinuing efforts to improve chip-resistance in their skis, Faction incorporated a 'micro' cap where the topsheet meets the sidewall on sandwich constructed skis.

Base

Die-Cut PTEX 4000 BaseUsed on most Faction Skis. Sintered PTEX 4000 base material is more porous and holds wax well.

Graphics

Matte TopsheetMatte ICP8210 topsheets require no lacquering saving around 100gm/pair, and reduces the use of not-quite-environmentally friendly lacquer. It also shows through the natural structure of the underlying laminate layers.
