Studio 2 Skis size 166 Rubber 2026

evo.com | Faction Skis > Need an all-mountain ski that doesn't force you to ski like your dad (or his day) and still lets you meander switch in front of the kids? The Faction Studio 2 Skis really are that versatile, with a 102mm waist and a playful nature that'll make you smile every time you get on them. Faction starts with their classic lightweight Poplar core and adds Carbon Stringers for pop and a Carbon Rubber Stomp Pad so your feet don't sting when you land hard. Sintered UHMW Base Flex Rating 7 (1 = Soft, 10 = Stiff) 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. Full Carbon Weave Between 8 and 12 strips of carbon, sandwiching either side of the ski's woodcore, are laid unidirectionally, providing extra stability to the ski, without adding weight to the build. Each carbon strip is woven into the fiberglass to provide strength and stiffness in the full length of the ski. Lightweight Poplar Wood Core | Faction Studio 2 Skis 2026 - 166 | Rubber
