 This is the Faction CT 2.0, it uses a super solid sandwich construction using a poplar and beech core so it's it's really strong but it's still got a nice kind of lightweight agile feeling to it. It's 102 millimeters underneath the waist so it's got plenty of, plenty of flotation and it's got a low camber profile to it so it's nice and stable too so whether you're in the powder or whether you're in variable conditions or whether you're in the park it's super super solid underneath the foot. It also uses carbon reinforcement so that just helps just to spread the weight, spread or distribute the pressure when you've got heavy landings but it also just increases power to the edge as well so if you're on firmer conditions there's plenty of edge grip too. It uses a true twin shape too so from the center to the tail and the center to the tip is exactly the same shape so whether you're landing forward or you're landing switch it's going to ski the same either direction. The kind of skier it's going to suit is someone who's probably looking at the ARV 96 as well but it's that person who's a decent all-mountain skier they want something that's nice and stable everywhere they want something that handles pretty well on piece too. So today I've been skiing the Faction CT 2.0 from the Candide range we've got some very slushy cruddy conditions being a little bit wider underfoot helped me keep on top of the on top of the snow and it made it a lot of fun nice surfy feel which is awesome. The sidewall in the ski as well actually helps it grip really nicely on piece and on harder snow which is a surprise as well and the rocker in the tip of the tail as well actually really nice gives you a nice little butter zone to help press on to the tip onto the tail and it's super poppy so it'll launch you off the roll or off a kicker or something like that yeah into the stratosphere and it's loads and loads of fun. So if you're kind of skier who sees the whole mountain as a snow park this is the ski for you hack and slash around everywhere you go ski like Candide.
