The Faction Prodigy 1 Grom is the entry-level option for aspiring, youthful freeriders who like to have fun off-piste.

This is a youth all-mountain freestyle twin-tip ski built for capable young skiers and comes packed with many of the same tech features seen in the Faction Prodigy 1.

The Poplar/ash wood core provides loads of energy and dampening for high-speed carving and big-jump-stomping; the Elliptical Radius and smooth Rocker prevent edge-hook; and the Full-Strength Sidewall and Anti-Chip Micro Cap work together to combat wear and tear.

Features:
• Poplar / Ash Core
• 2.2 mm Edges 
• Directional Twin
• Elliptical Sidecut

Details:
Tip: 250 mm

Recommended mounting points (acc. to manufacturer)

A mounting point further back on the ski promotes stability, float, and carving performance. This is generally preferred by those with a traditional technique, who ski in a  forward stance or with lots of pressure on the front of their boots through the whole turn

CLASSIC
The Classic line offers optimal carving ability. Choose this position if you like to heavily pressure the front of your ski boots and ski shovels through your turns. Mounting at the Classic mark will optimize float in deep snow, giving you the most tip length of any of our three recommended positions. 

Best for: those skiing with a traditional stance, ex-racers, big-mountain chargers.

PROGRESSIVE (equivalent to mounting point "Allround Standard" when requested in order process)
Progressive is the Faction  recommended mount position for the Prodigy, Dancer, La Machine, and Agent lines. Progressive is the most versatile position on the ski, and provides the perfect balance of carving performance and manoeuvrability. This is the position Faction recommend, if you’re unsure where you want to put your bindings, or if you’re simply looking for the most all-around solution. 

Best for: all-rounders, those drawing on both freeride and freestyle inspiration in their skiing. 

NEWSCHOOL
The Newschool position is for those who ski with a playful, freestyle-influenced style, wanting to maximize pivot ability and potential for butters, tricks, and spins. Skiers preferring New School will likely have a more ‘centred’ and neutral stance, with less pressure on the shins through turns. Newschool is the Faction recommended mount point for the Mana series.

Best for: Freestylers, those who ski with a centred stance, those wanting to maximize manoeuvrability.
