Light, powerful and precise, and equally at home on the piste or in the park, the Faction Prodigy 1X Skis are a fantastic frontside daily driver that happen to have a distinctly freestyle side to their personality. The 88mm waisted directional shape and rock solid Poplar and Ash core give this ski an edge on harder snow.

Rocker Type

Directional Rocker

Flex

Moustache Flex– This flex works best for most skiers. Enjoy stability in front of, and behind the binding area to providesolid edge hold. Then, we transition to smooth, progressive flex in the tips and tails to easily absorball the different bumps and snow debris the mountain throws at you. This flex allows for an easierturn initiation and finish.

Flex Rating– 6 (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 tailresult in easier turn initiation. This sidecut allows for a wide variety of turn lengths, angles and mountingpositions.

Shape

Tip Height– 64mm

Tail Height– 50mm

Core

Sustainable Poplar-Ash Wood Core– Poplar is a light-colored, durable softwood that flexes and pops nicely as well as having great vibrationabsorption capabilities. Ash is a heavier hardwood, that complements Poplar by adding stiffness anddurability. This duo provides excellent hold on hard snow, a solid base for stomping landings and enough pop and flex for creativity.

Sidewalls

Microcap Full Strength Sidewall– Micro-cap construction is a hybrid of a premium, sandwich sidewall construction fused with a lightweight,durable cap construction. With micro-cap, the sandwich construction provides awesome edge hold andtorsional stability while the ski’s topsheet wraps around and meets the sidewall, protecting the fragile jointthat can be prone to chipping.

Edges

XL 2.5mm Edges– Fractions of a millimeter might not sound like much, but when it comes to edges, it adds up. The2.5mm edges add an extra 25% of height to Faction’s standard 2mm edge, making for a stronger and more durable ski.

Binding Compatibility

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

Terrain: Park & Pipe, All-Mountain Park & PipePark and pipe skis, often called freestyle skis, are for skiers who spend the majority of their time on jumps, rails, and jibs of all kinds. Traditionally park and pipe skis have narrower waists with full camber profiles, but this category is incorporating more rocker patterns and different shapes. You will almost always find these skis with twin tips as well as other park specific features like thicker, more durable edges, dense extruded bases, and butter zones. All-MountainAll-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.

Skis: No Bindings

Ability Level: Intermediate-Advanced Intermediate-AdvancedWhether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type: Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/RockerRocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Turning Radius: Short Short< 16 m radius is best for carving.

Core/Laminates: Wood

Tail Type: Partial Twin Tip Partial Twin TipPartial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
