They're good but there are better ones.

On3p, moment, faction. In that order
Although I've never seen or known anyone with HG or j skis or kitten factory, but I hear good things
Personally I avoid line, revision, head, rossi and k2.. that also factors in personal preference tho.

Like a said partly preference, I'm not a fan of soft skis, and other than that I've/people I ski with have had bad experiences with those brands, durability mainly

Faction are pretty bombproof and most of their whips are towards the stiffer end of the scale if thats what youre after

If you don't want a soft ski, check out Moment Vice, ON3P Magnus, or the HG Stinger. All 3 are pretty stick and snappy. They can hold their own but the rocker makes them really fun. I only have experience with on3p and the Moment Vice. Ive heard great things about the Stingers.

They make some fantastic skis but in my opinion they are not fantastic enough to cost $1,000

I've only ridden one pair, not actually sure what the were as the were a prize my buddy won. I just didn't really enjoy riding them, they weren't anything special. long story short they didn't survive a full season as a part time ski, I've heard it from other people to.. and a bad ski if your on a budget tho, get what you pay for imo. surface is similar in the same way just funner imo

I have had a pair of faction Candide 1.0's that have somehow lasted 3 seasons, they ski great with very strong side wall construction, and they have a full edge which is really nice. Although the top sheet is really fucked, like basically gone. They are only 90 underfoot so you'll need at least the 2.0's(which are more expensive) if your on the west coast, but mine have been extremely durable and reliable on the shitty ice plates of the east coast. I'll most likely stick with faction for my next ski purchase.
