There is no getting away from the fact that The Mana 3 is a seriously well-thought-out ski and it shows. Strap these to your feet and you’ll not only get the first tracks but the last as well. What’s more, you’ll get them with little to no leg burn. Lightweight champions.

Faction Mana 3 Build

See the Mana as the dream vehicle for the dream day. Fitted with its own progressive twin-tip and flex, you’ll be able to easily and effortlessly float your way down the mountain; popping, slashing and pressing whatever you see. They are built around a sustainably-sourced Paulownia and Poplar core, and complemented by a carbon weave for easy and light handling. They are also considerately built with recycled materials and bio-based resin, so you can feel less guilty about the environment when buying and riding these.

Who Is The Faction Mana 3 For?

Faction has made three Manas for three pretty different days of skiing. These are the ones that were made to tackle any kind of 3D snow conditions around the resort. With a waist width of 112 mm and just a touch of camber, the Mana 3 hasn’t been designed for average days on the mountain. They have been designed to make stellar days even better, and they do it brilliantly. A ski aimed at a slightly more experienced skier, who wants to add another set to his collection for those playful days when the snow gods have delivered, they’re genuinely excellent.
