Faction Skis Mana 2 Ski - 2024 Black, 188cm

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I rode the Mana 2 everywhere from side hits to powder stashes and it never felt out of place. The 102mm waist gives me the stability to open it up on groomers, but it’s still quick and forgiving when I want to butter or spin off natural features. It’s the kind of ski that encourages creativity while staying supportive when I push harder.""Who It’s ForIntermediate to Expert Freestyle Skiers:Built for riders who want a playful platform without sacrificing stability, the Mana 2 is ideal for freestyle-minded skiers who spend time across the whole mountain. It’s approachable enough for progressing intermediates but has the edge hold, pop, and durability to keep advanced riders stoked on bigger lines and more technical tricks. What It’s ForAll-Mountain Freestyle with Creative Play:From park laps to powder days, the Mana 2 thrives in varied terrain. The rocker-camber-rocker profile keeps it forgiving in soft snow and predictable on rails, while camber underfoot brings energy for takeoffs, carves, and landings. Whether you’re lapping the park, finding side hits, or buttering rollers, this ski adapts with ease. Why We Like ItPlayfulness, Stability, and Versatility Together:We love that the Mana 2 strikes a rare balance between freestyle creativity and dependable stability. Its poplar core is lively yet damp, the carbon reinforcement keeps weight down while boosting strength, and the 102mm waist hits the sweet spot for skiers who want one ski that does it all. It’s durable, fun, and built to inspire expression across the mountain."
