Product Overview
The Faction Mana 3 skis are extremely versatile for its size. With slight camber underfoot and tip and tail rocker, the Mana 3.0 can pivot with ease, slash turns, and carve groomers.
The Poplar core makes the ski ultralight and the 112mm waist makes it great across a variety of conditions, from powder fields through trees to BC booters.
Performance, precision, playfulness—the 112-mm-waisted Mana 3 effortlessly balances these elements, making it the freestyle-inspired quiver-killer for your all-mountain and backside needs. The sustainably havested Poplar Core construction is complemented by generous rocker and a hint of camber, resulting in a ski that presses and pivots with catch-free confidence, without sacrificing edge hold and stability at speed. The Mana 3 comes with our unique Rubber/Carbon stomp pad to give you the superior toughness you need for skiing hard in all conditions. Backed by the finest, most durable Austrian construction, powered 100% by renewable energy.
