In short

The Faction Dancer 79 is a piste-focused ski for advanced skiers who value precision and stability. With its 79 mm waist, it offers quick edge-to-edge transitions and excellent grip on hard snow. The dual Titanal layers add power and dampening, while the elliptical sidecut ensures smooth, predictable turns. Built with durability in mind, the Dancer 79 is ideal for skiers who want control and confidence at higher speeds on groomed slopes.

In detail

Rocker Camber Small Rise
Skis with a rocker in the tip, camber in the middle and a small rise in the tail are very versatile. The ski is easy to turn, and the camber under the foot gives the ski grip on harder snow. The tail is slightly raised, but it is not like a full rocker. This makes for a balanced combination of easy turning and carving, without compromising on stability.

Poplar Core
Poplar is a lightweight, durable softwood known for its flex, pop and vibration absorption. Which is used exclusively in this ski core, it improves performance and provides torsional stability for impressive grip on the downhill.

Dual Titanal Construction
This construction features two layers of Titanal (an aluminium alloy) placed above and below the wood core. These layers provide exceptional torsional stiffness, enhancing edge grip and stability, especially during high-speed descents. It also improves power transmission, allowing for precise control on hardpack and icy conditions, making the ski more responsive and aggressive in its performance.

Elliptical Sidecut
The Elliptical Sidecut consists of a longer radius underfoot and shorter radii in the tip and tail of the ski. The long radius underfoot allows for faster and easier pivoting, while a shorter radius in the tip and tail results in easier turn initiation. This sidecut allows for a wide variety of turn lengths, angles and mounting positions.

XL 2.5mm Edges
Extra thick edges to ensure the pair of skis are able to take more abuse and last longer.

Faction Mounting Guide
The Faction Collective mounting point recommendation: a subtle difference in mounting position can greatly enhance your skiing experience.

Technical specifications

Technical

Characteristics

Shape
Piste

The shape of a piste ski is designed for groomed slopes. Its narrower platform allows quick edge-to-edge transitions and precise turn initiation, with a strong focus on grip and control on firm snow.
Profile
Tip & Tail Rocker

A Tip & Tail Rocker profile has an earlier-rising tip and tail with camber underfoot. This makes the ski easier to turn and increases versatility in soft and variable snow.
Ski core
Performance Woodcore

Developed to provide more support, precision and stability. This gives the ski a more direct and powerful character, especially at higher speeds and during technical skiing.
Ski outline
Directional

Features a longer and generally wider tip than tail, with the sidecut positioned further back. This makes the shape clearly focused on forward skiing and provides more support and direction when entering and exiting a turn.
Side wall
Hybrid Cap Sidewall

Combines sidewall and cap construction within the same ski. The sidewall is used where direct power transfer is desired, while the cap construction on other sections can help reduce weight and create a more accessible skiing feel.
Core Tech
Titanal

Titanal reinforcement adds damping, torsional stiffness and a more composed feel to the ski. This makes the ski feel more precise and stable at higher speeds and on hard snow, although titanal also adds weight.
Flex
Stiff

Flexes less easily and therefore requires more technique and input from the skier. It provides more support, precision and composure at higher speeds and under heavier loads.
Radius
Medium

With a radius of 17m @ 178cm, this ski offers a good balance between easy turn initiation and stability at speed. It feels predictable in short to medium-length turns and remains stable as the pace increases.
