Description

 

Watch out, here's Faction's best-seller, Candide Thovex's ski that all freeskiers are tearing apart, the Candide 2.0! Why so much success? Because it offers a hyper-versatile formula and a playful and explosive behaviour that allows you to send big tricks on all terrains.  

What is the Faction Candide 2.0 ski program?  

Just reworked at the side-lines and equipped with a new titanium/rubber reinforcement that brings more control while reducing the risk of tearing, the Candide 2.0 is more than ever the freestyle ski you need if you like to send tricks on all terrains and particularly off-piste.  

Its 102 mm waist width provides great comfort in powder and the double rocker allows you to jump in a blink of an eye while providing more manoeuvrability especially when pivoting. The ski has a firm flex in the tip area and a bit soft on the underfoot, which combined with the classic camber brings both an explosive pop and a lot of stability. Thus, you can do like Candide, that is draw lines at high speed, punctuated by a few tricks that you have the secret!  

Who is the Faction Candide 2.0 ski for?  

We recommend this model to freeskiers who are looking for a freestyle ski that is as high-performance as it is versatile, with which they can rain tricks all over the station and have fun in the snow between the trees when conditions allow.

Tips and advice

On glisshop.co.uk, you may feel overwhelmed by the amount of products we sell. How can you find the right skis, which ones can suit your level, your style or your budget?

Your options: 

1. The advanced search engine: You'll find it everywhere on our website, as a sidebar on our listing pages. It allows you to select conditions and refine your selection: brand, level, style, etc. When you select them, only the relevant products will show. 

2. You can contact us on the 020 3129 3301: skis feature fine technologies and affect your safety. It is important to make sure that the skis you've selected will suit you. Call our landline and get in touch with our team for any questions regarding these products. 

During the process or your order, we'll ask you to complete a form about the mounting of your bindings. With these details, we will be able to mount the bindings with the correct settings. The release value of the bindings is set by a professional skiman, and according to the norm AFNOR FD S 52-748.

If you don't have your own ski boots when you order, the bindings will be pre-mounted. The final settings can be done :

- by a shop if you are renting your ski boots

- by our skiman : you can call us for any technical questions. Our skiman will do the final settings for you. Telephone : 020 3129 3301

All skis you purchase on our website are factory-waxed and tuned. This means they are ready to hit the slopes. However, gear tends to wear and in order to keep it in its best shape, you need to maintain base and edges on a regular basis.

Maintaining your skis is essential for a smooth glide and a solit grip. Frequency of maintenance may vary depending on how often you use your skis, or on how damaged they are. We recommend you to wax them every 10 riding days and at the end of the season. Edges need to be tuned up to 2 times per season if you want to keep a good edge control. However, don't overdo it. Tuning is basically scraping off material. If you do it too often, the edges will vanish after some time.

When your base is damaged and shows shallow scratches or rock gouge, it is possible to repair it.

You can get these repairs done by professional ski shop, or if the gouge is only superficial you may repair it yourself. To do so, you will need special tools and materials such as wax, Ptex for repairing bases, edge sharpeners, etc. You can find them on our website.

All products benefit from a manufacturer guarantee, as long as the damage is caused by a manufacturing defect (may it be hidden or obvious).

Usually, the manufacturer guarantee lasts two years.

Only the manufacturer is able to decide if there has been a 'manufacturing defect' or a 'misuse'. Glisshop is only an intermediary between you and the manufacturer.

The manufacturer's guarantee will not apply if the problem comes from a misuse.
