When most of your skiing is done on firm snow, or if you tend to spend more time in the park than anywhere else, there's no reason to go wide. Get the Faction Prodigy 1 Skis and join the legions of satisfied park and pipe wizards who've mastered their craft on this ski and won't look anywhere else. Built for the long haul with a burly Poplar and Ash wood core, Microcap sidewalls and XL 2.5mm edges to keep stompin' when others fail.
Rocker-Camber-Rocker
Flex Rating – 7 (1 = Soft, 10 = Stiff)
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 turn lengths, angles and mounting positions.
Directional Twin – 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 with ease.
Tip Height – 64mm
Tail Height – 50mm
Sustainable Poplar-Ash Wood 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 for creativity.
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 and torsional stability while the ski’s topsheet wraps around and meets the sidewall, protecting the fragile joint that can be prone to chipping.
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.

You like skiing bottomless powder and kneeling down to pet cute dogs, so keep your knees sweet this season and click into the Look SPX 12 GW Ski Bindings. Offering 27 mm of vertical elasticity in the heel and 45 mm of lateral elasticity in the toe, the GripWalk compatible SPX 12's offer superior shock absorption and reliable retention to keep you in when you're trying to stomp the landing, not pop out of your ski.
Full Action Toe | 45 mm Elasticity – Featuring 45mm of elastic travel and 180⁰ multi-directional release, the Full Action toe piece delivers best-in-class retention and release and increased coupling strength (boot-to-binding interface) for maximum power transmission.
180˚ Multi-Directional Release – A true mechanical upward release that functions independently from the heel for the most effective multi-directional protection in the case of a fall.
Dual Standard Concept (ISO 5355 Alpine and GripWalk) – Look strategically reinforced the toe housing, increased the toe ramp, elongated the toe-wings, and created a toe that is compatible with both ISO 5355 Alpine and GripWalk soles.
Toe Lateral Elasticity – 45 mm
SPX Heel Piece – LOOK's SPX heel design offers 27mm of elastic travel for best-in-class shock absorption, confident retention, and a significant reduction in unwanted prerelease. An oversize heel pivot increases coupling strength (boot-binding interface) for more efficient power transmission.
Elastic Travel – 27 mm
Long Elasticity – Longer elastic travel ensures more reliable retention to keep you in when you need. LOOK bindings offer the most elastic travel (lateral and vertical) and the fastest re-centering prior to release, ensuring superior shock absorption to reduce unwanted pre-release.
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
Long enshrined in the Ski Boot Hall of Fame as the go-to choice for newer skiers on their way to greatness, the medium-flexing Salomon S/Pro MV 100 Ski Boots aren't going away any time soon. A generous average 100mm last works well for most feet straight out of the box; with a bootfitter and Salomon's Custom Shell HD heat molding process at your disposal, the comfort factor goes way up, even for wider feet.
Custom Shell HD – Salomon's proven heat molding process makes boot fitting most feet quick and easy - the latest Custom Shell HD version is even quicker to mold than before. The thinner wall construction and new shell materials allow the foot to be closer to the shell and provide enhanced sensations, more power and direction energy transmission.
Last: 100 mm – An average last for that can be expanded to accommodate wider feet.
Flex: 100 – A medium flex for intermediate to advanced skiers.
My Custom Fit 3D Seamless Performance Liner – Those pesky seams you feel on your little toes? They're gone in the pre-shaped and seamless S/Max and S/Pro liners, and you'll be happy they're a thing of the past. Improves comfort, precision and ensures a warmer fit.
