The 2026 Faction Studio 2 delivers modern all-mountain freedom with a playful edge, blending a versatile 102mm waist with a balanced shape that’s just as happy carving forward as cruising switch. A lightweight poplar core paired with Carbon Stringers brings snap and energy to every turn, while the Carbon Rubber Stomp Pad smooths out harsh landings and high-speed chatter. Lively, capable, and unapologetically fun, the Studio 2 is built for skiers who want one ski that does it all—without feeling old-school.
