When applicable, our individual opinions are noted with our initials.
The ski has softened over the years, but remains virtually unchanged since the 2018-2019 season.
Dylan and I hopped on these skis this season to bring our perspective to the CT 2.0 and 2.0x.
This is significantly shorter than the skis weve been on this season.
The ski features a standard sidewall layup, and in general, there’s nothing fancy about the build.
The Candide 2.0 is easy to get along with on groomers.
I hopped on and was immediately able to make decent carves at slow to medium speeds.
[EA]I was really surprised by how well the CT 2.0s performed in steep, off-piste terrain.
I was surprised by this skis float in soft snow.
They experienced no odd catching, even when doing butters in soft corn snow.
The wide tips did great at maintaining direction through softer crud and slush without deflecting at more playful speeds.
Park/Playfulness:
This ski really shines in park parameters and is super playful.
[DD]The swing weight definitely feels lower than the stated weight would suggest.
Durability:
Despite a bit of standard topsheet chipping, we didnt have any issues in the durability department.
Previously Factions warranty has been more than stellar though(in Dylans experience).
