evo.com | Faction Skis > A frontside and groomer specialist, and a perfect choice when it hasn’t snowed in several weeks, the Faction Dictator 1.0 Skis turn and burn like nothing else on hardpack. Its fine-tuned all mountain shape won’t let you down when a surprise storm hits overnight, but make no mistake, the Dictator 1.0 thrives on firmer ground. This is the all gas no brakes version, complete with Faction’s Dual Span Titanal construction for the best possible power and edge-hold. Flex Rating 8 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff) We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width. Poplar Core Poplar is a light-colored, medium-weight, durable softwood that flexes and pops nicely as well as having a whole load of vibration absorption capabilities. Used as the only wood in this core, it allows the ski to pop, butter and stomp like a park ski and also have enough torsional stability to grip impressively on the downhill. XL 2.5mm Edges Extra edge thickness gives the skier a pair of skis that absorb shock and impact much better than skis with standard edges. The result is a ski with a much higher life expectancy. Dual Span Titanal Titanal’s isotropic qualities, equally strong in all directions, mean that the ski loves being on edge, blasts through bumps and feels stable even in changeable snow, making it the perfect chassis for a holy grail, hard-charging freeride ski. | Faction Dictator 1.0 Skis 2022 – 178
