evo.com | Faction Skis > Faction's premier park ski hits the podium on a regular basis on the feet of some of the best freestyle artists in the world, and it goes without saying that it woudn't hurt your game, either. With a fullly symmetrical shape, Poplar wood core, and extra wide 2.5mm edges for durability, the Faction Studio 1 Skis are key to upping your skillset. Flex Rating 7 (1 = Soft, 10 = Stiff) XL 2.5mm Edges Fractions of a millimeter might not sound like much, but when it comes to edges, it adds up. The 2.5mm edges add an extra 25% of height to Faction's standard 2mm edge, making for a stronger and more durable ski. We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width. Sintered UHMW Base Full Carbon Weave Between 8 and 12 strips of carbon, sandwiching either side of the ski's woodcore, are laid unidirectionally, providing extra stability to the ski, without adding weight to the build. Each carbon strip is woven into the fiberglass to provide strength and stiffness in the full length of the ski. | Faction Studio 1 Skis 2026 - 171
