Faction Candide 3.0 Skis 2017

Thanks to skis like the Faction Candide 3.0, the notion of having a quiver has been virtually laid to rest. Ringing in at 108 underfoot, this go-anywhere, do-anything ski offers a lightweight, stable ride that handles chop and crud with ease, rails on the hardpack, and gobbles pow like a kid in a candy store. Float through the deep stuff, air out those cattrack hits you love -- heck, even spin through the park every now and then -- on this all-mountain, fun-loving machine. Updated for 2017 with Titanal mounting plates and micro-cap construction, the Faction Candide 3.0 Skis retain the lightweight freeride performance they are acclaimed for while gaining durability and stability underfoot.

Product Details

Rocker Type:
Rocker / Camber / Rocker: 10 mm of rocker over 200 mm in the tip, 2 mm of camber underfoot, 5 mm of rocker over 150 mm in the tail. Rocker / Camber / Rocker
Flex:
Medium-Stiff Flex: Stable at speed or on big landings, but still playful enough to butter and press.
Core:
Balsa Flax Core: Balsa is an exceptionally light hardwood. The core is laminated vertically and divided by strips of woven Flax to provide additional torsional and compression strength. Balsa Flax Core
Laminates:
Titanal Plates: Titanal plates secure the binding screws. The one peice design fits most touring bindings with center screws. Titanal Plates
Sidewalls:
Sandwich Construction: Used 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. Sandwich Construction
Micro-Cap Protection: Continuing 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 Base: Used on most Faction Skis. Sintered PTEX 4000 base material is more porous and holds wax well. Die-Cut PTEX 4000 Base
Graphics:
Matte Topsheet: Matte 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. Matte Topsheet
Binding Compatibility:
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
