Der Faction Prodigy 1 ist der ultimative Freestyle-Ski für alle Freestyle-Enthusiasten. Nutzung des preisgekrönten elliptischen Sidecut-Designs von Faction und einer vollfesten Seitenwand für erstklassigen Kantenhalt. Die Breite von 88 mm unter dem Fuß ermöglicht ein präzises Handling im Park und auf der Piste und der Ski verfügt über einen Kern aus Pappel- und Eschenholz, der dafür sorgt, dass er extrem stabil ist und auch starken Stößen standhält. Die Anti-Chip-Micro-Cap-Konstruktion an der Spitze und am Ende sowie die 2,5-mm-XL-Kanten sorgen dafür, dass der Ski langlebig ist.
Sie werden diesen Ski lieben, wenn:
Sie wollen Stabilität und Haltbarkeit, um den Park zu durchqueren
Sie möchten einen Ski, der hart carven kann, sich aber auch leicht drehen und verschmieren lässt
Du liebst es, rückwärts zu fahren
Du magst Butter und arbeitest gerne an Tricks, Fortschritt ist dein Ding

FEATURES
DIRECTIONAL TWIN TIP
A considerably skinnier tail width than in the tip provides ultimate downhill performance for attacking the mountain. A twin tip in the tail encourages playfulness and freestyle attitude, meaning you can ride switch without problem.
MATTE HIGH RESISTANCE TOPSHEET
We use the highest quality topsheet material available, and we test it rigorously to ensure it stands up to regular abuse. Sourced near our factories in Europe for a friendlier supply chain.
POPLAR/ASH CORE
Poplar is a light-colored, durable softwood that flexes and pops nicely as well as having great vibration absorption capabilities. Ash is a heavier hardwood, that complements Poplar by adding stiffness and durability. This duo provides excellent hold on hard snow, a solid base for stomping landings and enough pop and flex to get creative with.
RECYCLED MATERIALS
Working with our production partners to eliminate material waste, we now mix base, sidewall and topsheet material scraps back into the raw material used for production, reducing carbon emissions while ensuring the same level of quality & durability.
LOCALLY SOURCED MATERIALS
In an effort to reduce the impact of our supply chain, we strive to source materials from European companies that are based near our factories.
SUSTAINABLE WOOD CORE
Our poplar, beech and ash cores are sourced from the forests near our European factories, eliminating the carbon cost of transporting raw materials across great distances.
XL 2.5MM EDGES
7 fractions of a millimetre might not sound like much, but when it comes to edges, it adds up. The 2.5mm edges stack an extra 35% of height on top of our already super-durable standard 1.8mm edges. This extra steel gives the rider a pair of skis that are going to take more abuse and last longer.
XL FULL STRENGTH SIDEWALL
A construction that places strips of protective material along the sides of each core, between the edge and the topsheet. Sidewalls provide the best possible edge hold and stability when the ski is engaged in a turn as well as protecting the wood core, edges and topsheet from impact and outside damage.
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 tail result in easier turn initiation. This sidecut allows for a wide variety of turns lengths, angles and mounting positions (stay tuned for our mounting guide).
ANTI CHIP MICRO CAP
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 and torsional stability while the ski’s topsheet wraps around and meets the sidewall, protecting the fragile join that can be prone to chipping.
MUSTACHE FLEX
This flex works best for most skiers. Enjoy stability in front of, and behind the binding area to provide solid edge hold. Then, we transition to smooth, progressive flex in the tips and tails to easily absorb all the different bumps and snow debris on the mountain. This flex allows for an easier turn initiation and finish.
DIRECTIONAL TWIN TIP
A considerably skinnier tail width than in the tip provides ultimate downhill performance for attacking the mountain. A twin tip in the tail encourages playfulness and freestyle attitude, meaning you can ride switch without problem.
