Black Diamond Impulse 112 Ti vs Faction Le Mono

How they compare

Both target freeride and powder terrain, while the Black Diamond Impulse 112 Ti leans more all mountain. The Black Diamond Impulse 112 Ti uses a twin tip shape while the Faction Le Mono is flat. The Black Diamond Impulse 112 Ti has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Faction Le Mono uses rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel).
