- 2020 Faction CT 2.0: www.snowtraxst...
Epic skis for epic days, from a ski designed for one of the most demanding skiers out there!
The 2.0 is a brilliant all terrain ski that rips everything from piste and park to steep chutes and powder runs.
The tip and tail are soft enough to be super fun in the park and but there is tons of power under the feet for railing carves and landing bigger hits.
We've tested this ski extensively, skiing in varied conditions and on varied terrain. If you want more information just give us a call on 01202499155 or send an email to sales@snowtraxstore.co.uk

You mean front flip
I just received a pair from Faction. Ive ripped them for two days now. I had the 2019 CT 2.0s and can tell the construction of the 2020 model has slightly stiffer feel to them. On my feet they feel like a more durable ski long term with better construction. Fingers crossed. The 2019 model design has both edges of the ski ending right in the middle of the sidewall below the boot. This became a problem after 50+ days and the edge soon became weak. I was eventually compensated through the Faction 2 year warranty. I would recommend purchasing the 2020 Factions over the 19s. Overall, I have loved this ski more than any other ski because it is just a blast popping off rollers or jumps with ease and knowing the ski is going to hold on any sort of snow. Faction >
Thanks for the input Brendan, good to hear Faction looked after you.
When you're comparing the two skis, are you comparing a new ski from the ones that you played with and broken in from the season before? Or are you remembering from last season when you got them fresh?
Just a question, did the edges of your 2020’s peel, the top layer of my skis are peeling off just after 3 days of use this season
How did the faction warranty work? What skis did they send you?
Hate to repeat the question, but at 1.76cm height would the 1.76cm CT stand too long, or is it still in the range where it could be playful for switches, etc.?
Hi! Great review! I'm planning yo buy the LOOK Pivot 14 binding. What width would you recommend? 95 or 115? Faction website's size chart indicates 115mm, but I'm doubtfull, considering the 102mm waist width of these skis.
Thanks!!!!
How does it compare to the Bent Chetler 100?
Fadebola bentchetler 100 chatters a lot the candide 2.0 is more of all all mountain ripper
@@LastBreathBeaters That means the CT 2.0 / 3.0 perform better on piste?
Fadebola yes I would say after skiing both
@@LastBreathBeaters Thanks man
Honestly they look a little bit wide for all mountain skis. Do you have any trouble on groomed slopes?
Hi, thanks for watching!
The CT 2.0 is a really capable all-mountain ski. It's great on piste and capable in softer snow, too. We've not had any trouble riding them on groomed slopes or varied terrain.
hope this helps!
A little late to this, but my experience with these is that only when you’re ripping down a groomer at super high speeds do they start to feel a bit unstable. Any other scenario, they feel amazing
What ski size do you recommend for me I am 5'11, 215 pounds.
Depends on how you ski, but if you are a good skier then I would recommend 170 or 180
Hi Luke, thanks for watching. For your height and weight we would recommend the 183. However, if you want to use this a purely freestyle ski, you could size down a little bit.
If you want more info just drop us a message to sales@snowtraxstore.co.uk and one of our team will be happy to help!
Wich lenght do you recommend for my size (187cm, 78kg)?
Thanks for watching our review! The 178cm is going to be a little more playful - easier to turn on the steeps & more challenging terrain. The 184cm will give more stability at speed & drive through turns on piste. So it depend's how aggressive you ski & what terrain you spend your time on. Often worth a chat on the phone, as we can discuss all of the above. Feel free to call on 01202 499155.
We have both sizes in stock & reduced as part of our mid season sale, so have a look www.snowtraxstore.co.uk/skis/4549-faction-candide-20-ski-2020.html
