Faction Skis Catalogue - Hardgood 2013/2014 by Georg Moser

DESIGNED IN VERBIER, SWITZERLAND

HARDGOODS 2013/14

TEN YEARS AGO WE HAD A CRAZY IDEA TO MAKE OUR OWN SKIS Cultivated in lift lines, bars and while waiting to drop-in on freeride comps, the dream grew a strength of its own. With backgrounds in design, engineering, marketing and retail, and a commitment to innovative design and material research, we put our roots down in the freeride mecca of Verbier, Switzerland. Ten years on, that dream is now a fully-f ledged reality. Off ices in Verbier and Breckenridge, a comprehensive lineup of award-winning, versatile freestyle, freeride and touring skis, plus colabs with some of the best in the business. We Are The Faction Collective

SKIS ARE MORE THAN JUST PIECES OF WOOD, STEEL & FIBERGLASS They are tools of escape. A medium for personal expression. A way to challenge fears, push limits & share incredible experiences with your friends. Designing skis is a bit of a black art. The subtle mix of elements from raw materials and camberlines through to sidecuts and core prof iling requires time, skill and dedication to perfect. Each ski in our lineup is designed around a rider prof ile ‘ key’ based on key ingredients such as terrain, ability, versatility and retail price. Our in-house shaper takes this key and applies it to create a f inely-tuned product designed with the rider in mind. All our skis (even our junior models) are lovingly made by hand in our E.U. production facility. We work closely with suppliers to ensure only the f inest quality materials are employed, and our processing and f inishing ensures consistent performance right out of the wrapper. We were the f irst independent ski brand to offer a two-year manufacturers warranty.

‣ WE ARE THE FACTION COLLECTIVE

CONSTRUCTION A SKI’S CORE IS ITS HEART. The selection of materials that go into a ski’s core def ine its personality and performance characteristics. All our skis use wood cores with glass-f ibre reinforcement layers, full-length wrap-around Rockwell treated Walzhol Huber 1.9mm edges, silkscreen printed topsheets and highquality bases to ensure long-lasting performance. Skis are stone-ground and waxed before leaving the factory.

CANDIDE THOVEX SUPERLIGHT SERIES Now in its second year, the Faction x Candide Thovex collaboration continues to push boundaries with its innovative use of new materials, technology and design. A freeskiing legend, Candide came to us with an unequalled history including gold medals in all X-Games skiing disciplines as well as a Freeride World Tour championship. He had specif ic ideas about what he wanted in a ski, and gave us the opportunity to completely redef ine the way we approached our products. Imagine a backcountry freestyle ski with all the best properties of a wood core â&#x20AC;&#x201C; durability, dampness and feel â&#x20AC;&#x201C; yet weighing a staggering 20% less than its poplar & ash cored sibling. A patent-pending hybrid core of Balsa laminated together with natural f lax f ibres is the secret. Combine this with progressive camberlines and custom f inishes, together with a limited number of skis signed by Candide himself and you have all the ingredients for a revolutionary ski, as well as a true collectors item.
