Faction 3.Zero vs Faction Silas

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Faction 3.Zero leans more freeride/powder, while the Faction Silas leans more freestyle / park. They share a twin tip shape — symmetrical tips for skiing switch and park; playful and forgiving. The Faction 3.Zero 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 Silas uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Faction 3.Zero targets expert riders while the Faction Silas is aimed at advanced riders. At $179 vs $415.9 MSRP, the Faction Silas is the more budget-friendly option.
