The Faction Dancer 2 is built for skiers who want one ski that can charge hard, stay composed, and still feel lively anywhere on the mountain. With a versatile 96 mm waist, this all-mountain freeride tool blends stability, agility, and smooth power to deliver confidence in every condition—from groomers and chalk to chop, crud, and soft snow.
A lightweight poplar wood core brings energetic rebound and natural vibration absorption, keeping the ski light underfoot without sacrificing backbone. Two ultra-thin layers of Dual Span Titanal amplify edge grip and dampening, giving the Dancer 2 that unmistakably smooth, planted feel when skiing fast or plowing through rough snow. The result is a ride that feels powerful and predictable yet still playful enough to smear, pivot, and maneuver with ease.
The progressive flat-tail shape, paired with precisely tuned rocker, lets the ski stay stable at speed while making turn initiation feel intuitive at lower speeds. The signature Moustache Flex pattern keeps the tips and tails forgiving and reactive while maintaining strong, supportive flex underfoot—ideal for confident edging and reliable control on firm terrain. Finished with durable Full Strength Sidewalls, recycled materials, and Austrian craftsmanship powered entirely by renewable energy, the Dancer 2 is built to last and built to perform.
Features
Poplar Wood Core
Lightweight, durable, and naturally vibration-absorbing. Offers energetic rebound, torsional stability, and excellent snow feel.
Dual Span Titanal
Two thin sheets of titanal deliver powerful edge grip, smooth damping, and top-tier stability in variable terrain.
Progressive Flat Tail
Blends the speed and hold of a flat tail with the forgiveness of tail rocker. Stable at high speed, easy to pivot at low speed.
Mustache Flex Pattern
Stiff and supportive underfoot with progressively softer tips and tails for forgiving turn initiation and smooth terrain absorption.
Elliptical Sidecut
Longer radius underfoot for quick pivots; shorter radius in tip and tail for sharp, intuitive turn entry. Adapts easily to different turn shapes.
Full Strength Sidewalls
XL ABS sidewalls protect the core, improve durability, and enhance edge hold on firm snow.
Recycled Materials
Topsheet, base, and sidewall scrap integrated back into raw materials—lowering emissions without compromising performance.

This guide is for alpine (downhill) skis. Ski length depends on your height, your ability, and how you like to ski. Use this chart as a starting point, then talk to us about the ski itself: rocker, width, and turn shape all change how long a ski feels.

Quick Rule
- Beginner: ski tip around your chin. Shorter skis turn easily.
- Intermediate: tip between your nose and forehead.
- Advanced: tip around the top of your head, for stability at speed.
- Expert: about 5cm longer than advanced, for hard charging and big-mountain terrain.
Adjust For
- Go longer: heavier build, fast skiing, deep snow, lots of tip rocker.
- Go shorter: lighter build, tight trees and moguls, uphill touring.
- Telemark: if you want a ski for tele, we recommend going down about 10cm from the length you normally like.
