Faction Dancer 79-Pink

The Dancer 79 is Faction's purpose-built groomer ski — no pretense of going wide, no all-mountain hedge. Its poplar core sits between two full sheets of Titanal, and that combination is what you feel the moment you tip it on edge: a planted, predictable grip on hardpack that doesn't rattle or deflect. The profile leans cambered underfoot with just enough tip entry and a progressive tail rocker to keep it from feeling locked in. You set an edge, it holds. Turn shapes from 13m at 158cm to 18m at the 184cm are precise and shapeable — not speed-only — but make no mistake, this ski rewards pressure and commitment. The XL 2.5mm edges add durability and help maintain that grip further into the ski's life. This is a flat ski; pair it with your own binding.

This is the ski for the groomer-focused intermediate through expert who wants a dedicated on-piste tool — someone who spends most of their days on hard morning cord and wants a ski that rewards clean technique without being punishing when things get scrappy. It is not the right pick if you regularly ski variable snow, cut through mogul fields, or want one ski to handle everything from groomers to trees. At 79mm underfoot it will feel narrow once you leave the groomed; in that case the Dancer 1 at 86mm gives you more versatility without leaving the Dancer family's tight, responsive character, and the Dancer 2 at 96mm opens up genuine all-mountain range.
