Faction Prodigy 1 26/27

The Faction Prodigy 1 is a versatile twin-tip ski for those who want to combine park riding with fast, playful skiing across the entire mountain. With an 88 mm waist, it offers high precision on hard snow while maintaining the creative and surfy feel that characterizes the Prodigy series.

The core is built from a combination of poplar and ash. This gives the ski a lively response with plenty of pop, while remaining stable and durable for jumps, rails, and harder landings. Furthermore, the construction is reinforced with a carbon and rubber layer under the binding, which dampens vibrations and provides a calmer feel at high speeds.

The elliptical sidecut allows the ski to initiate turns smoothly and naturally, regardless of speed. At the same time, the traditional camber combined with rocker in the tip and tail contributes to secure edge grip and a playful feel when you want to slide or ride switch.

To withstand intense use, the Prodigy 1 is equipped with robust Full Strength Sidewalls and extra-thick 2.5 mm steel edges. It is therefore built for many days in the park without compromising on durability.

In short, the Faction Prodigy 1 is an excellent choice for skiers who want a durable and responsive freestyle ski that feels just as at home in the park as it does on the piste and the rest of the mountain.
