Skis Size Guide
Find your size with our expert advice video:
As explained in our video guide above, choosing the right ski length depends on a mix of different factors. On a basic level, height, weight and ability should give you a good idea of what length of ski you should go for.
As a rule of thumb, start with a ski around nose to eyebrow level height.
If you are just starting out, or at an intermediate level, then we suggest that you take some length off. If you’re a more advanced/expert skier, then we suggest you should push your ski length towards your full height or even further. If you are heavier than the average weight for your size, feel free to add some ski length as well.

Go towards the lower end of our suggested range if:
- You’re a beginner or an intermediate looking to progress quickly.
- You want to make even quicker, shorter turns more easily.
- You will spend most of your time on hard snow.
- You have a cool head and like to keep the revs down.
- You’re so tall, none of our skis are long enough for you.
Go towards the higher end of our suggested range if:
- You ski pedal to the metal
- You’re skiing fast and aggressively in off-piste conditions.
- You weigh more than average for your height
- You plan to do most of your skiing off-piste
- You want to look like a FWT athlete in the lift line

description
The Faction Studio 1 was designed in collaboration with Faction’s stacked freestyle athlete roster to engineer a park specific freestyle ski that delivers precision performance with effortless, oozing style. Featuring a poplar and ash core for the ideal blend of lightweight spring and rigid power while the carbon reinforcement under the binding area help withstand heavy stomps. The symmetrical shape allows for effortless switch skiing, while the carbon weave provides torsional strength without added bulk and the 7mm XL sidewall delivered supreme edge hold and protection of the wood core.
You'll love this ski if:
- You want stability and durability for crushing the halfpipe
- You love to ski backwards
- You want a stiffer ski with carbon, for torsional strength without the bulk
- You are the most dedicated to your craft, progression is everything
