Studio 3 Ski – 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

“Studio 3 is my go-to when I want a ski that can handle it all—steep lines, switch landings, and deep snow. It’s surprisingly nimble for a 112 underfoot, and the poplar/carbon combo gives it the right amount of snap without ever feeling heavy. It feels just as comfortable pressing and smearing in the park as it does carving on big alpine terrain.”

We chase versatility, and the Studio 3 Ski from Faction gives us exactly that—freestyle-inspired design with freeride soul. Built in Austria with renewable energy, these skis are as durable as they are sustainable, and they make sure we can push ourselves harder without compromise.

A generous rocker profile paired with just the right amount of camber lets us pivot, smear, and spin without losing stability, while the 112mm platform keeps us floating when storms deliver the goods. Poplar wood with full-length carbon stringers keeps the ride light and energetic, and the unique rubber/carbon stomp pad takes the chatter out of high-speed lines and hard landings. Whether we’re buttering switch, slashing pow stashes, or carving groomers back to the lift, the Studio 3 makes every lap feel effortless.
