Faction Skis > Perfect for 1,000 meter heli drops in a meter of fresh or shredding the pavement of the Great Wall, the Faction Candide 5.0 Skis are not only Candide's ski of choice in the big mountains but a ski you'll have the time of your life on, snow or no snow. A heavily rockered, flat cambered profile keeps this 122 mm-waisted monster not only manageable but super surfy. Faction keeps the weight down by using a core of Balsa and Pachaco woods with a Phenol plate underfoot and no metal. 420 mm Tip Rocker / Flat Camber / 400 mm Tail Rocker Phenol Binding Plate Laid up underfoot in skis with lightweight woodcores, this plate provides first rate screw retention for your bindings Stiff Flex 8 (1 = Soft, 10 = Stiff) Full Strength Sidewall This construction places strips of protective material along the sides of each core, between the edge and the topsheet. Sidewalls provide the best possible edge hold and stability when the ski is engaged in a turn as well as protecting the wood core, edges and topsheet from impacts and outside damage. 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 5.0 Skis 2020
