No wonder the Candides were exploding left and right a few seasons ago. Faction spent their entire R&D budgeting making this.

The biggest innovation in skiing is doing it while hitting a blunt.

People who ride those only ride them because their skiing can’t stand for itself so that had to get recognized in a different way. Same energy as people who ride ski blades, couldn’t make it as a skier so they tried a new and easier domain to get recognition in

Skiing a mono is actually harder than skiing traditionally. Imagine you had to ski with your skis perfectly next to each and only had one active edge. It’s a wank for sure but,people who genuinely ski monos full time are somewhat attention seeking.

Who actually feels the desire to monoski. I'd much rather do that snow surfing thing or just try snowboarding. Idk maybe weird take but it just doesn't look fun.

Believe it or not - not everyone who straps skis to their feet is trying to become an "influencer" or "gain recognition". Some of us just enjoy skiing.

swiss people are fucked. im sure there are cool guys there, but the ski culture there as a whole is kind of lame.

Faction wouldnt make something like this if there wasnt a market for it.

"Whaatt?? A Split Mono?!" Well folks, yes. It's been there in our sights for years, like a beautiful dream that we never wanted to wake up from. We know you know this is what you want. You just didn't know it yet. Graced with funky fresh graphics from Faction-athlete-by-day, artist-by-night Cody Cirillo, we proudly present the Supreme Roller Skate Split Mono. For the perfect backcountry pow day—the kind of day you never want to wake up from.
