Extremely lightweight and with a waist width of 86mm​,​ Faction’s Agent 1.0’s are well suited backcountry skis for the days when it doesn’t dump. Stable​,​ speedy​,​ and sharp​,​ these guys handle the harder snow perfectly and skin up with ease. Attached are Salomon MTN bindings. It appears that the toe piece has been mounted twice​,​ leaving room for one more mount “Looking for a light and fast but not wimpy touring ski for those long days (or weeks) on the skintrack? Join the club. Check out the Faction Agent 1.0 Skis​,​ designed and used by the Faction crew in and around Verbier​,​ where the immensity of the terrain and the vast number of options boggles the mind. As with the other Agent skis​,​ the 1.0 uses a Karuba core with carbon weave and sidewalls everywhere but at the tip and tail. This ski doesn't win the lightweight sweepstakes in the 85mm waist class​,​ but it just may be the best downhill option for extended touring.”
