Equally at home on the piste, in the park, or on the podiums, the Faction Prodigy 1 Matej Skis are Matej Svancer's weapon of choice for freestyle success. They're 10mm narrower than the Prodigy 2 and have denser Ash laminates added to the core for strength, as well as the new Carbon Rubber Stomp Pads. This is a ski that you can session the park all day long on and still hang with your freeride crew for a few laps in the back bowls when the urge strikes.
Directional Rocker
Moustache 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 the mountain throws at you. This flex allows for an easier turn initiation and finish.
Flex Rating – 6 (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.
Poplar and Ash Wood Core
Carbon Rubber Stomp Pad – For extra absorption on those huge hits.
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.
