The Agent skis are not the lightest touring skis on the market, they're the best touring skis on the market. Their unparallelled strength-to-weight ratio ensure Agents are highly capable on the uphill and rock-steady on the way down, making the Agents the ultimate companion for all of your backcountry endeavors. Read on for details on the technology featured in all Agents Series models.
The lightweight Karuba wood core possesses a top notch strength-to-weight ratio. Karuba wood provides optimal flex and vibration absorption capabilities with minimal weight, making it an ideal core for the uphill as well as the downhill.
The Agent's wood core is sandwiched by 8-12 strips of Carbon laid unidirectionally. Each carbon strip is woven into the ski's construction for greater strength and stiffness along the full length of the ski.
Made in Austria, with premium materials - including thicker edges - the Agents are built to last. The micro cap and tough top sheet bring it home for optimal durability.
The Elliptical Sidecut is made up of a longer radius underfoot and shorter radii in the tip and tail of the ski. A long radius underfoot means you can pivot faster and easier, while the shorter radii result in easier turn initiation. Surf Zone technology unites Rocker and Tip Taper design to ensure these two key features work in harmony. Surf Zones promise a floaty, seamless ride in all conditions.
Notched tail to ensure your skins stay on when you need them to and a flat but progressive tail with just the right amount of rocker to finish your turns like a knife spreading peanut butter.
