Inspired by Faction's stellar athlete stable, the brand-new Faction Studio 1 is a terrain park-specific ski with stability and precision to burn.
Faction's stacked team of pros collaborated with their engineering experts to produce a ski that seamlessly blends effortless style with crazy-accurate performance. If you settle for nothing less than the “perfect shot” or the perfect trick, you may have struck gold with this puppy.
Featuring a Poplar core for just the right amount of pop, carbon and rubber reinforcement under the binding area to withstand heavy stomps, together with a carbon weave for torsional strength without added bulk, the Studio 1 seriously delivers everywhere it matters. Throw in a symmetrical shape for effortless switch skiing, and a 7mm XL sidewall for supreme edge hold and wood core protection, and you have yourself quite the ride.
If you need a precise, durable, fun ski that lives for the park but has enough power and float for the whole mountain, the Studio 1 from Faction should definitely be on your shortlist.
Poplar Core - Allows the ski to pop, butter & stomp, with enough torsional stability to grip beautifully on the downhill

Full Strength Sidewall Construction - For the best possible edge hold & stability when the ski is engaged in a turn
Carbon/Rubber Stomp Pad - A 600mm long & 15mm wide reinforcement that adds strength exactly where you need it, protecting the core from heavy impact on rails
XL 2.5 mm Edges - XL 2.5 mm Edges, Compared to 2 mm industry average, built to last
Boat Flex - Heavy rocker is best complemented by solid, stiffer tip & tails, helping settle the ski & power through variable snow
Full Carbon Weave - Between 8 & 12 strips of carbon woven into the fibre glass for excellent strength & stiffness all through the ski
100% Renewable Energy - Produced in a cutting-edge facility running on 100% renewable electric power, heated solely from biomass, with factory no longer using oil - all resulting in a huge 10 million kilos a year emissions reduction
