- For the 2024/2025 season, Faction added a carbon/rubber stomp pad for vibration absorption
- Durable poplar cores flex and pop while absorbing vibrations; they allow the skis to butter and stomp and also have enough torsional stability to grip on the downhill
- Tip and tail rocker with traditional 3 mm camber; directional twin shape has a skinnier tail width than in the tips to provide downhill performance for attacking the mountain
- Full Strength Sidewall construction places protective strips along the sides of the core between the edge and topsheet for better edge hold, stability and impact protection
- XL 2.5 mm steel edges stack an extra 25% of height on top of the already durable 2 mm standard edges, so the skis can take more abuse and last longer
- Anti-Chip Micro Cap hybrid construction fuses sandwich sidewalls with a lightweight, durable cap
- Sandwich sidewalls provide excellent edge hold and torsional stability while the scratch-resistant topsheet wraps around to protect the fragile joint from chipping
- 7/10 Mustache flex provides stability in front of and behind the bindings, then transitions to a smooth, progressive flex in the tips and tails to absorb bumps
- Faction incorporates base, sidewall and topsheet material scraps back into raw material used for production, reducing carbon emissions while ensuring quality and durability
- Faction uses sustainably harvested wood in all of its ski models
