The Faction Studio 1 skis are designed for skiers who demand both versatility and precision in their all-mountain adventures. These skis combine freeride performance with playful freestyle elements, making them an excellent choice for riders looking to carve through groomers, tackle powder stashes, or hit features in the park. Built with a responsive poplar wood core, they deliver the perfect balance of lightness, power, and agility.
Featuring a rocker-camber-rocker profile, the Studio 1 excels in both float and edge grip, offering a smooth, controlled ride in mixed conditions. The carbon-rubber reinforcement improves impact absorption, giving the skis added durability for hard landings and tough terrains. With a medium-stiff flex and dual-radius sidecut, they handle high speeds and big turns while remaining nimble enough for quick, snappy maneuvers.
