2026 Faction Prodigy 2 Capsule Skis

The 2026 Faction Prodigy 2 Capsule is a lively and energetic all-mountain twin that blends freestyle freedom with enough backbone to charge through mixed terrain. As the middle child in the Prodigy Capsule lineup, it leans slightly more directional, giving freeriders a bit more bite without sacrificing playfulness. With a distinctive graphic and a versatile 98 mm waist, it’s built to turn the whole mountain into your personal playground.

Why we like it:

This version of the Prodigy 2 does everything we love about the original, but with a head-turning limited-edition graphic that sets it apart in lift lines and edits.

Who it's for:

Intermediate to expert skiers who want a fun, versatile ski that can press rails in the morning and bounce through bowls in the afternoon.

Highlights:

With an extra thick Poplar wood core, the Prodigy 2 Capsule has backbone for grip and stability, but stays light and surfy in soft snow. A rocker-camber-rocker profile supports quick pivots, ollies, and carves alike, while a carbon/rubber stomp pad absorbs shock from big landings. The directional twin shape blends a playful ride with plenty of control, and 2.5 mm edges keep durability high for park abuse or hard snow charging.

Things to consider:

The Prodigy 2 Capsule’s park-oriented roots are evident in both its geometry and flex profile. The centered stance and twin tip design make it ideal for switch skiing, spinning, and playful terrain, but directional skiers looking for edge hold at high speeds or carving performance on firm snow will find it less responsive than a more traditionally shaped ski. It's a true all-rounder, but one that leans into creativity and flow over brute-force charging.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Skis true to size. Size up if you’re leaning toward soft snow stability; size down if you prioritize agility and a looser, pivoty feel.
