The Faction Prodigy 3 is just on the softer side of average for all-mountain skis, which makes for a nice buttery ski that still holds up when hauling ass. They float like butterflies in pow and sting like bees when you get them back on hardpack. These were a favorite of testers in our all-mountain group because they can handle a bit of everything. Most of our testers preferred to bump the bindings on these way forward of the recommended mounting point, so bear that in mind.
"I love how well the Prodigy 3 carves, especially switch. The sidecut is just a really engaging shape. They butter great and they're fun on jumps too with the wider platform. Always a ski I look forward to getting back on." - @Twig
"These were super fun in the low-angle areas of the mountain, super playful and damp. Side hits and butters were super fun and these skis can handle a big variety of mount points." - Bailey Lahure
These skis are also available in an X version with a white topsheet but identical construction

With regards to the Prodigy 3, our goal was to make a super-durable ski that could be enjoyed by absolutely anyone, in any conditions. The ski is intuitive, perfectly balanced and stable. Its 106 mm waist is highly adept in both packed and pow conditions, making the Prodigy 3 a true quiver killer. With its Directional Twin shape and Elliptical Sidecut, the ski is delightfully user-friendly, ideal for the avid skiers who are looking to progress their skills and enhance their experience in nature’s finest playground.
