Consumer Reports

The Faction Dictator 2.0X is an ideal ski for the value-seeking ripper-chick. It loves to roll around at high speeds, providing outstanding edge-hold and stability, and carves a clean arc with the best of the skis in our test. In choppy snow and difficult conditions, the Dictator mounts a military coup, razing down everything in its path. Faction is offering a powerful ski for an affordable price.
The Dictator needs a highly competent skier to drive it precisely. This ski is not a great choice for beginner to intermediate skiers who are still gaining confidence; these skis are bossy. You need to tell them who is actually in charge rather than allowing them to rule with impunity. This ski also lacks the exceptional flotation in powder that some skis in our review boast. However, if you are a highly skilled and assertive skier who wants a dependable ski for a good price, look no further than the Faction Dictator.

 At 95mm underfoot, the Dictator 2.0X is a versatile off-piste performer that's more than capable in deep snow but you might want something a little wider if you're heading in the direction of Japanese powder. All in all, a really solid, if not particularly playful ski that will satisfy powerful, confident female skiers. Whilst it definitely requires a solid drive, if you like to be in the front then you'll be pleased with how the Dictator 2

0X is a classic freeride, flat tail ski that demands to be skied with power, commitment and grandes cojones (or the female equivalent). With two layers of Titanal surrounding a lightweight poplar/paulownia core, the Dictator 2.0X has been built with strength and stability in mind and delivers excellent edge hold if you fully commit to the carve.

 By doing the vertical strips, we can use a quarter of the material, keeping them lightweight, but it also maintains the stiffness and dampness of metal in the skis. Sandwiching that together is two full sheets of carbon fiber, and then underfoot we have a binding insert plate made of pre-cured fiberglass. That improves binding retention, and more importantly allows for telebindings, where most other lightweight skis don't do well with telebindings. The flex of the Summit comes in slightly softer than our other skis at a 6

 A unique part of the ski is we took a more playful approach with the design, where a lot of skis in this category become stiff and aggressive. This maintains a fun, playful type of riding. The Summit comes in at 105 underfoot, and the sidecut radius varies from 13.5 to 16

 Hey, my name is Alex, and we're going to run through our Summit Carbon Skis today. For our 10-year anniversary, we brought a fresh new look to our graphics we're calling the Quiver series. These clean, crisp, cohesive graphics are done by our talented artist, Brooke Ruble. On all of these graphics, we have a new icon representative of the model's name, and then the graphic through the middle gives a nod to the terrain they're designed to be used in

 The Summit is our daily driver's ski that can be used in any conditions from firm, variable snow to floating and light powder. They can also be used as a lightweight resort ski. A unique part of the ski is we took a more playful approach with the design, where a lot of skis in this category become stiff and aggressive. This maintains a fun, playful type of riding

The Summit is our go-to, every day, All-Mountain ski. From steeps to trees and pow, the Summit will see you to the top and beyond. To achieve this we've combined a 105mm ski with our All-Mountain camber-dominant ski profile. There's just the right amount of reverse camber in the nose to help keep you afloat, while an approachable 1.5mm of camber provides solid pop and edgehold to keep the ski energetic. We pair this with a ultralight core composed of paulownia and aluminum stringers, with a carbon fiber overlay. The paulownia and carbon keep things ultralight and the horizontal aluminum provides dampening similar to a full metal ski while weighing in at only 1580 grams in a 176cm. The Summit is truly designed to be the daily driver in our line.

Weston Quiver Series: Summit Carbon Skis - YouTube

  They maneuver well in small, tight radius turns in bumps and glades, but hold their own when the terrain opens up for long, carving turns.  The only condition where I have found they underperform has been thick, heavy storm snow that has included a mix of snow and rain in the same storm.  Here, I have found that the ski tends to catch and wobble, particularly in the area just forward of the binding mounting, where the ski narrows.  

I have skied the Summits in a variety of conditions ranging from New England hardpack (read, sheer ice) to fluffy powder to bumps, trees, and wide open spaces.  On the hardpack, they hold an edge without feeling skittish or chattery, on powder, the big shovel and the rise in the ski tip floats the ski beautifully and gives a nice, "surfy" feel to the ride.  They maneuver well in small, tight radius turns in bumps and glades, but hold their own when the terrain opens up for long, carving turns.  The only condition where I have found they underperform has been thick, heavy storm snow that has included a mix of snow and rain in the same storm

  In general, the design of the Summit has been a game changer in my skiing by inspiring confidence through creating a stable, reliable platform from which to crank out smooth, powerful tele turns that were previously inaccessible to me on other skis. Overall I am super happy with the Summit, and could say with confidence that this ski really does do everything well enough to be my one-ski quiver.  As a bonus, the art on the topsheet by Brooklyn Bell is absolutely eye-catching and unique.  Definitely the most beautiful ski I have ever ridden

Yes, Weston is well-known for their snowboards but the folks designing skis really hit the nail on the head by creating a solid, do-everything, daily driver ski that is fun, confidence inspiring, and reliable.  Buy this ski.  You won't be sad.

Another "quiver killer" from Weston!
