Faction Studio Grom FS Skis (26/27)

The brand-new Studio Grom FS brings the creative spirit of the Studio Series to younger freeskiers. Built with the same process as our adult skis, this premium twin tip is designed for young freestyle skiers ready to progress. The poplar wood core provides lively energy and smooth stability to progress on their first park features, and Elliptic Sidecut and balanced Rocker deliver catch-free turns and effortless control on the trails. Reinforced sidewalls, tip and tail caps, and 2.2 mm edges boost durability for season after season of progression.

About the Studio series

At Faction, we're celebrating our 20th anniversary, and the Studio Series is leading the tribute. At its center, is the Roman numeral for 20; XX, realized in a textured bitmap glitch overlay. The Studio Series is the flagship descendent of two decades of riding, innovation and design that all started with our freeride-focused prototypes in 2006. In these two decades, we've worked through countless versions, prototypes and molds to reach today's series of premium, world-class skis. This series spans the spectrum from high-level park skiing, to high-energy all-mountain riding, and right to the top: the otherworldly demands of competitive freeride skiing.
