Faction Skis > A ""Big Boy"" powder and backcountry ski that stays playful with huge amounts of rocker at both ends, the Faction Candide 4.0 Skis have yet to find a big mountain situation they don't thrive in. A meter of fresh, big drops and fall-you-die terrain are all in play. Faction keeps the weight down with a Balsa and Pachaco core and Titanal only under the bindings, making the 4.0 a good choice for a freeride touring setup. 600 mm Tip Rocker / 1 mm Camber / 590 Tail Rocker Titanal Binding Plate When you're on a day-long touring trip in the backcountry, you need to rely on your gear. Titanal reinforcement plates are laid up on top of the lightweight cores ensuring that your binding screws hold. This one-piece design fits alpine and touring bindings, adding trustworthy durability to these lightweight cores. Elliptical Radius Sidecut 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, while a shorter radius in the tip and tail results in seamless turn initiation. This sidecut allows for a wide variety of turn lengths and angles. Stiff Flex 8 (1 = Soft, 10 = Stiff) Lightweight Balsa/Pachaco Core Balsa is a softwood with exceptional strength for its weight. Reinforce that with the lesser-known, unique Pachaco hardwood, as well as a small amount of Poplar, and you are left with a rare combination that ensures a lightweight yet solid ski setup that performs in all conditions. - Faction Candide 4.0 Skis 2020
