    Thomas Harari's review

    These are my skis for the firmer days in Bozeman Montana. Super stable at speed and in firm snow and ice. Will feel lighter and easier to turn than some other skis in this class (like a Nordica Enforcer). Great 96 mm underfoot ski.

    An anomaly for Faction - this is a stiff, titanal-laced front side marauder for experts without the typical Faction freestyle bent!
