Candide 3.0 Skis Now On Sale

This Ski Is A Staff Favorite:

Powder7 Staff Pick Matt H
By: Matt H
The Candide 3.0 doesn't need an introduction, because millions of people saw them on the feet of Candide Thovex in his viral "One of Those Days" edits. I am not Candide and I can only dream of skiing like him, but I did really enjoy this ski even with my mortal capabilities. It walks a fine line between being snappy and nimble, but it is still stable when the speed picks up. I particularly enjoyed these skis in slushy spring bumps, which is an area where a ski of this width may not always excel. That speaks to the versatility of the ski, and It does feel like one of the best options currently out there for a one-ski quiver on the left coast. While I am not convinced that this skis namesake is not a highly advanced skiing alien, I am sure that this ski is a blast and could be a great option for any skier who enjoys not having to worry about which ski to bring out every day.

Our Take On The 2022 Faction Candide 3.0:

This ski has its own cult following. That’s because Thovex was after the perfect freestyle-inspired one-ski-quiver, and in collaboration with Faction's designers he knocked this one out of the park. Its playful shape allows the 21/22 CT 3.0 to easily butter and wash out for jibbing, and also hold a strong edge when you crank up the dial. For the rider who is always on the lookout for fresh goods and needs a lightweight, versatile ski to rip up the whole mountain, look no further. Designed & tested at Faction's home in Verbier, Switzerland, handmade in Europe at the finest manufacturing facilities in the world. Built to last.
