Faction Mana 2 Skis 2024

The Faction Mana 2 with its versatile 102 mm waist is the narrowest in the Faction Mana family, making it the ideal ski for skiers looking to transition from all-mountain, to freeride, to freestyle terrain. This high-quality, high-performance ski effortlessly responds to your movements. Its lightweight poplar wood core construction and playful flex help the ski pop off booters, butter over rollers, and transition effortlessly between turns. While the rubber/carbon stomp pad keeps the ski strong enough to take hit after hit. Enjoy the finest, most durable Austrian construction, powered 100% by renewable energy.

Features

  • Faction's poplar, beech, and ash cores are sourced from the forests that are growing near their European factories, eliminating the carbon cost of transporting raw materials across great distances.
  • The 2.5mm edges stack an extra 25% of the height on top of their already super-durable standard 2.0mm edges. This extra steel gives the rider a pair of skis that are going to take more abuse and last longer.
  • Faction works with their production partners to eliminate material waste. They now mix base, sidewall, and top sheet material scraps back into the raw material used for production, reducing carbon emissions while ensuring the same level of quality & durability.
  • Faction uses the highest quality topsheet material available, and they test it rigorously to ensure it stands up to regular abuse. Sourced near their factories in Europe for a friendlier supply chain
  • "Boat flex" combines a stiffer tip and tail to help settle the skis at speed, with a softer midsection, for big-time pop on request.
  • A 600mm-long, 15mm-wide carbon/rubber reinforcement underfoot, above the edge. In addition to protecting the wood core from heavy-duty impact on rails, the carbon and rubber inlay adds stability and vibration absorption under your boots.
  • A construction that places strips of protective material along the sides of each core, between the edge and the top sheet. Sidewalls provide the best possible edge hold and stability when the ski is engaged in a turn as well as protecting the wood core and edges.
  • Between 8-12 carbon strips sandwiched on either side of the wood core enhance ski stability without extra bulk. Woven into fiberglass for full-length strength and stiffness.
  • Micro-cap is a hybrid of premium sandwich sidewall fused with durable lightweight cap construction. Provides strong edge hold, and torsional stability, and protects joints prone to chipping.
  • Poplar, a light, durable softwood, provides flex, pop, and vibration absorption. It enables all-mountain freestyle skiing, combining pop and has enough torsional stability for a solid downhill grip.
  • The Elliptical Sidecut is made up of a longer radius underfoot and shorter radii in the tip and tail of the ski. The long radius underfoot means you can pivot faster and easier, the shorter radius results in easier turn initiation.
  • This ski is produced in a cutting-edge facility that runs on electrical power that is 100% renewable. The factory no longer uses oil, resulting in annual CO2 emissions reductions of a whopping 10 million kilograms.
