The Faction DANCER 89 is an all-mountain alpine ski designed for experienced skiers looking to improve their skills on all types of mountain terrain, from groomed runs to the woods and moguls. With a waist width of 89 mm, it strikes a versatile balance between a pure piste ski and a freeride ski, offering both precision on hard snow and comfort in a variety of conditions. Its hybrid profile—combining rocker at the tip and tail with a classic camber underfoot—gives it natural agility without sacrificing control. The Faction DANCER 89 is designed for intermediate-advanced to expert skiers seeking dynamic and fluid performance for everyday skiing.
Designed to cover a wide range of riding styles, the Faction DANCER 89 skis excel on both groomed runs and more technical terrain. Its recommended terrain includes groomed runs, moguls, and forest trails, making it a reliable companion for days when conditions change and you want to venture off the beaten path. The ski’s unidirectional shape clearly orients it toward fast, direct descents, delivering dynamic sensations and precise edge grip when exiting turns. This all-mountain design makes it an everyday tool capable of adapting to the mountain’s ever-changing conditions without requiring major compromises.
The DANCER 89 features a rocker profile at the tip and tail combined with a classic camber underfoot. This hybrid configuration offers a twofold practical advantage: the rocker facilitates turn initiation and improves performance in fresh or groomed snow, while the central camber ensures solid edge grip on hard snow and compacted slopes. The result is a ski that engages naturally without requiring excessive technical effort, while retaining enough bite for skiers looking to push their limits. The 2.5 mm XL edges further enhance this grip on icy or groomed surfaces.
The construction of the Faction DANCER 89 is based on carefully selected materials, the key elements of which are as follows:
With dimensions of 126-89-115 mm (tip, waist, tail) and a turning radius of 13 m for the standard 153 cm length, the DANCER 89 is designed for short to medium turns that are accessible and responsive. The Elliptical Sidecut geometry, featuring a longer radius underfoot and shorter radii at the tip and tail, makes it easy to initiate turns while maintaining freedom of movement. This profile promotes natural progression for the advanced skier without limiting the technical expression of the expert. The available lengths, ranging from 159 to 173 cm, allow you to tailor the ski’s performance to your build and skiing style.
The Faction DANCER 89 ski is a solid choice for the advanced skier who regularly skis in varied terrain and wants a ski capable of handling changing conditions without having to switch skis. Its construction combining poplar and Titanal, its hybrid profile, and its waist width centered at 89 mm make it an excellent choice for those seeking versatility and performance across the entire ski area.
