Prodigy

### Product Description 

Prodigy skis offer a soft and playful feel through their light wooden core while remaining stiff enough to handle big air. If you're primarily a freeride skier, these are a perfect match. Prodigy skis feature a Carbon Stomp Pad; this carbon reinforcement underfoot adds extra strength to the most important area of a freestyle ski. This reinforcement underfoot also increases stability and adds vibration absorption under your boots. According to Faction, the poplar/beech core creates a pretty light ski that has great grip and feels snappy between turns, while maintaining a flex “soft enough to pop, slash and butter all over the mountain.” Lastly, Prodigy skis feature the thickest edge offered by Faction, the XL 2.5MM edges, so you’ll be able to really dig in when you’re carving.

### Expert Notes

Faction has been flying under the radar for quite a while; that is, until Candide Thovex came out with videos capturing the ridiculous lines he was skiing on them. Specifically, the Prodigy is built to be your daily park ski, bust is also designed to stand up against competition-style skiing. With lots of rocker in both the tips and tail, and with camber underfoot, the Prodigy is a modern jib ski that can also hold its own on groomers. Don’t expect to jump from arc to arc on these, but you can still flow nicely without feeling out of control at speed. If you’re looking for a designated park ski -- but still find yourself peak hopping -- the Prodigy is a solid option.
