Why Mountain Lifestyle is Canada’s go-to for Faction Skis (and why the Capsule models are hard to resist)

faction-hh

Looking for Faction skis without the hassle of cross-border shipping, duties, or endless backorders? You're in the right place.

Mountain Lifestyle is a family-owned Canadian shop based in Kelowna, BC. We carry a deep selection of Faction skis — new, previous-season deals, and demos — and we ship coast to coast across Canada with straightforward flat-rate shipping on ski orders ($30 flat rate on skis and snowboards). No U.S. warehouse surprises. No currency conversion headaches. Just solid Canadian service and gear that arrives ready for your next powder day, park session, or all-mountain mission.

Faction has built a cult following for a reason: playful, durable skis that blend freestyle DNA with real all-mountain performance. Whether you're charging groomers, buttering rollers, hitting side hits, or floating through soft snow, there's a Faction model that feels like it was made for the way you ski.

Standout: The Faction Capsule Models

The Capsule series takes Faction's proven Prodigy platforms and pairs them with limited-edition artwork by Colorado-based skier and artist Elsa Grace. Same construction, same ride characteristics, elevated topsheets that stand out on the mountain (and in the lift line).

Current Capsule highlights in our store include:

  • 2027 Faction Prodigy 2 Capsule  — The best-selling all-mountain freestyle twin. 98 mm underfoot, directional twin shape, poplar core with carbon/rubber stomp pad for vibration damping and durability. Playful enough to butter and ski switch, stable enough to carve hard and handle variable snow. Perfect daily driver for skiers who want one ski that does almost everything.
  • 2026 Faction Prodigy Capsule 3 and 2027 Prodigy 3 Capsule — A step wider at 106 mm. More float and versatility for soft snow and freeride days while keeping the playful twin-tip character that makes the Prodigy family so much fun.

These Capsule graphics draw on botanical motifs, regional inspiration (Rockies, Southwest, etc.), and Elsa Grace's distinctive collage style. They're the same high-performing skis as the standard Prodigy models — you're choosing the art you love.

More Faction Favourites We Stock

Beyond the Capsules, our Faction selection covers the full spectrum:

  • Prodigy series (1, 2, 3 and junior/Grom options) — The playful all-mountain twins that built the brand's reputation.
  • Studio series — More performance-oriented freestyle and park-to-all-mountain options.
  • Dancer series — All-mountain to freeride chargers, including metal-reinforced Ti versions for those who like to rail turns.
  • Agent and La Machine — Lightweight touring and freeride options when you're earning your turns.

You'll also find previous-season deals, demo packages with bindings, and youth sizes so the whole crew can ride Faction.
