Product Info

The all-mountain freeride ski for those who like to make clean turns every time and FINISH them for God's sake, the Faction Dancer 3 Skis combine big mountain width and stoutness with a flatter tail rocker profile and two sheets of Titanal in the build to make you feel invincible even when you're figure-11'ing it. The 106mm waist is a perfect compromise between powder-worthiness and inbounds dexterity, and the tip rocker/flat tail design nails it when you're looking for power out of the turn.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Rocker-Camber-RockerTip Rocker: 172 = 370mm, 178 = 380mm, 183 = 390mm, 188 = 400mm | Camber: All Sizes = 4mm | Tail Rocker: 172 = 220mm, 178 = 230mm, 183 = 230mm, 188 = 240mm

Flex

Flex Rating8 (1 = Soft, 10 = Stiff)

Moustache FlexThis 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 the mountain throws at you. This flex allows for an easier turn initiation and finish.

Sidecut

Elliptical SidecutElliptical 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.

Shape

Freeride Flat TailTraditional flat tail design is built for speed, ultimate edge grip and control throughout charging turns. Brought into the modern day with a slight tail rocker, this shape is easier than ever to slash your turn into a slarve and won’t hook up in fresh conditions.

Core

Sustainable Lightweight Poplar Wood CorePoplar is a light-colored, medium-weight, durable softwood that flexes and pops nicely as well as having a whole load of vibration absorption capabilities. Used as the only wood in this core, it allows the ski to pop, butter and stomp like an all-mountain freestyle ski and also have enough torsional stability to grip impressively on the downhill.

Laminates

Dual Span TitanalTitanal is one of the most sturdy metals out there. Its isotropic qualities, equally strong in all directions, mean that the ski loves being on an edge, blasts through bumps and feels stable even in changeable snow, making it the perfect chassis for a holy grail, hard-charging freeride ski.

Sidewalls

Microcap Full Strength SidewallMicro-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.

Edges

XL 2.5mm EdgesFractions 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.
