Dancer 106 Ti 26/27
Blue

The Faction Dancer 106 Ti is a freeride ski with a 106 mm waist and two thin sheets of Titanal. It is built for all terrain and conditions: it floats in powder, handles heavy, chopped-up snow and carves on hardpack. The topsheet is grey and the base is blue.

The two sheets add stability without adding much weight. Titanal is equally strong in all directions, so the ski holds an edge and stays calm through bumps and changeable snow. The core is poplar between two layers of fibreglass. Poplar gives flex and pop and absorbs vibration, and the fibreglass adds strength, stiffness and durability. The elliptical sidecut has a long radius underfoot and a shorter radius in the tip and tail. Underfoot the ski pivots quickly, and the tip and tail make turns easy to start. The flat tail gives stability and drive, while the tip and tail rocker makes slashing the ski around feel natural.
