The Faction Collective
Приєднався 18 лют 2014
The Faction Collective was formed in 2006 by a group of passionate friends with the aim of creating the best-designed and built freeride skis around.
We started making products with the belief that they are more than the sum of their parts - that with the application of innovative design and manufacturing principles, we could make better tools for skiers who demand the best in performance, versatility & quality.
16 years on, our brand is a close-knit team that believes the closer we are to our products, the outdoors, and each other, the better our output. With bases in Verbier, Denver, London, Annecy, and Tokyo, we've now applied the same exacting philosophy to create a world-leading range of skis and mountain equipment for almost all forms of alpine skiing.
Every detail of everything we make is pored over, questioned, and refined. Everything is there for one reason - to make a better product. To make a ski more versatile whilst enhancing its performance.
Freeskiing, amplified.

Follow Alex Hall, Mac Forehand, Koga Hoshino and Antti Ollila as we strip back the music and polished cuts away from the final master, and put you right into the scene as one of their crew members on-location.
Japan is seldom known for its unreal street skiing possibilities - as long as you're down to dig out the features from their monstrous annual snowpack. We bring you some of the cuts and rough snippets together from the whale of a time the Faction crew had shooting the infamous Japan segment of 'Abstract: A Freeski Exhibition'. Everything from the blower powder tree runs and wild street riding amongst the quiet, unassuming suburbia of Niigata, Japan.

Somebody knows where i can buy skis faction candide 5.0? I've been searching them for a long time, on the different sites but they not in stock
that switch 7 was nutty
excellente vidéo les gars ! ça tue sa mère, très propre, vous me fouter le seum de fin de saison avec ça ! mais comme vous dites, santé plaisir jusqu’à la prochaine saison ;)
🔥🔥🔥
3:00 beat is 🔥🔥🔥
What do you think of the Machine 2 Mini as an allround spring touring ski? We ski slowly, so not worried about stability at speed, but still, sometimes you build some speed in the turn, and hit bad snow. Also, with the minimal camber, how do you find them skinning up and skiing down very hard, icy snow? Again, this would be at slow speed, not looking to charge, just looking for control and reliability.
Just a portly shot, terribly edited video, plus no guide to where these couloirs are ? Could have been so good
Nice to see people truly enjoying the sport of skiing.
Anyone else watch this on the daily?
is there any reason you would recommend the “new school mount” over just true center (i’ve always mounted park skis true center)
agree with this question. the studio 1 is a symmetrical ski according to Faction spec sheet, so I am wondering why they would recommend it mounted a few cm back, especially on a pure park dedicated ski.
i just got mine mounted “true center” and it ended up landing over the progressive line on the studios. i don’t understand, is new school a forward mount?
@@skeletorbeatsthat’s odd. You should never have more Tail than Tip on any ski. Must be an incorrect marking?
@@12f8ewfo yeah i’m not sure. based on my own measurements, true center falls in between the progressive and new school mounting points. which is upsetting because the shop didn’t care to measure it and just stuck me on progressive
Can we agree that this last hit was enough for an edit alone ?
when a pre 20 yo dropped a triple during the first minute, I knew there was gonna be bananas
この曲が使われてるのがもうヤバい
Um bro… this is awesome what the fuck😂😂🤣
Hi Sam, I’m curious about your hoji pro boot. Do you know if it fits like the speed nose hoji pro tours? If so I think it would be the perfect boot for me.
Beautiful video 😍...must have been an incredible experience! Super nice combo sailing up north to ski ⛵️⛷🥰💪💪💪
A Hall have the most interesting falls😂
You forgot the soundtrack
Quanto Tempo ❤ KUNG's 👌🇲🇫 🎶
This guy is fricking insanely amazing
I can't even believe what I'm seeing - all 🔥❤🔥🔥

Très bonne vidéo. Le graphisme original et à partir de 5'42" le : "amazing ! Why not? Let's go!!!" Images incroyables. Excellent! Merci.
so clean so sick
Koga absolute beast for taking those hits 😮
This man A Hall is just taking shots lmao
So good.
goddamn koga took a beating in this
Ski movies should be more like this
Gnarly
Interesting ski lineup, but I did not like the Woke ESG stuff on the values section of the website, a little too overbearing virtue signaling for me.
Why didn't I know about this project! I was up there the same time 😢 Quite impressive that you found decent snow 😂
so sick! inspiring.
Amazing trip with an all-time crew!
how does this not even have a million views in 2024, easily the steeziest ski edit ever
amazing... great group, great vibes, and great shots!
Beautiful film 🎥 ❤⛷
It's really, really dangerous...se faire plaisire oui, mais pousser le danger au délà de ces limites NON
One more lap with A Poll. 🤣
so much bla bla and barely any skiing.
Just waiting for my Prodigy 1's to arrive. It's my first ski and I'm looking forward to riding groomers, and playing around in the park... 🤘
The film is good, yes, the images speak for themselves, and the "interview" perspective of the professionals is interesting, but I think that the film doesn't share enough emotion. Many emotions are felt more through the music chosen and its association with the images or even through the presentation of the athletes, and this sharing of emotions has always been very present in the films of The Faction Collective and I think that unfortunately this sharing is rather absent in this film. I'm not saying that this film is bad, far from it, but that it lacks emotions.
❤
Trop cool ,Trop beau ,Trop styler ,Bravo
You know you do hardcore backcountry when you need a rifle for polar bears 8:10 😂
Great film! I always especially love seeing pros set the example of utilizing guides when exploring new experiences and new terrain, not only safer but often more enjoyable that way!

Sänkyøu for this magnificent movie.
