Questions fréquentes
Ajusteurs BorderlineOur Find my length tool starts from your height: intermediates about 8 cm under their height and advanced skiers about 3 cm under; plus 4 cm if you're heavier than most people your height, minus 4 if lighter. Example: an intermediate skier 170 cm tall gets about 162 cm, so the 162. We carry 154, 162, 170 and 178 cm.
Faction rates the Agent 1 for intermediate and advanced skiers. It's light, but Faction built it for skiers who put downhill performance and durability ahead of saving the last few grams.
Touring and light all-mountain. Faction made it for ski touring in variable snow, less often powder; its ratings are all-mountain / carving 7/10, freeride / powder 3/10 and park 3/10. At 86 mm it's wider than the 66–80 mm we suggest for mostly groomed Ontario runs.
Faction builds it for touring, but gives it traditional camber underfoot for edge hold, XL 2.5 mm edges (thicker than the 2 mm industry average), full-strength sidewalls and a full carbon weave for torsional stiffness without extra weight.

About the Agent series
The Agent Series is built in the image of 'The Wandering Spirit'. Since their debut, the Agent Series of hybrid freetouring skis have won over thousands of skiers with their exceptional downhill performance in a lightweight build. Built with a Karuba wood core for responsive, rebounding flex and a carbon weave to boost rigidity and stability, the Agent Series skis are a close friend whether they're mounted with a pin binding, hybrid or full-alpine binding setup. Each member of the series unlocks on-grid and off-grid skiing, ranging from backcountry deep treasures to spring couloir missions.

Questions
Posées en magasin, réponses de nos ajusteurs
What length should I get?
Our Find my length tool starts from your height: intermediates about 8 cm under their height and advanced skiers about 3 cm under; plus 4 cm if you're heavier than most people your height, minus 4 if lighter. Example: an intermediate skier 170 cm tall gets about 162 cm, so the 162. We carry 154, 162, 170 and 178 cm.
Is this ski right for my level?
Faction rates the Agent 1 for intermediate and advanced skiers. It's light, but Faction built it for skiers who put downhill performance and durability ahead of saving the last few grams.
Is it for groomers, all-mountain or powder?
Touring and light all-mountain. Faction made it for ski touring in variable snow, less often powder; its ratings are all-mountain / carving 7/10, freeride / powder 3/10 and park 3/10. At 86 mm it's wider than the 66–80 mm we suggest for mostly groomed Ontario runs.
Will it hold an edge on icy Ontario groomers?
Faction builds it for touring, but gives it traditional camber underfoot for edge hold, XL 2.5 mm edges (thicker than the 2 mm industry average), full-strength sidewalls and a full carbon weave for torsional stiffness without extra weight.
Does it come with bindings?
No, it's sold flat (ski only), so you choose the binding. Pick one whose brake is at least as wide as the 86 mm waist.
Will my boots fit? What does GW mean?
That depends on the binding you add. For GripWalk boots, choose a binding marked GW (GripWalk-compatible); standard alpine boots fit any alpine binding.
What's its turn radius?
The turn radius grows with length: 13 m at 154 cm, 15 m at 162, 17 m at 170 and 19 m at 178 cm. Its elliptical sidecut makes turns easy to start.
Is it stiff or soft?
Faction rates the flex 7 out of 10. Its Mustache Flex is stable underfoot for edge hold and smoother in the tips and tails to soak up bumps. Faction also gives it a stiffer tail that supports a strong finish to the turn.
Can you mount bindings on them? Do I need my boots?
Yes, when you buy bindings with them: mounting is then free and the same day at Richmond Hill and Ottawa. We set the bindings to your boots, so bring yours or buy boots with the skis; you check and sign off on the setup in store. Skis we ship go out unmounted.
Does it have rocker or camber?
Tip and tail rocker with traditional camber underfoot (about 4 mm, per Faction's spec sheet), for edge hold, easy turn starts and float in soft snow. Faction gives it a modern tip that rises above the snow and a flat tail for stability and drive.
Where should the bindings go? Can I put touring bindings on it?
Faction says the Agent skis work with a pin touring binding, a hybrid or a full alpine binding. It gives a Progressive mount point for this ski, with a 4.1 x 9 mm drill size.
What warranty does it have?
Faction gives a two-year warranty on this ski. If something goes wrong, contact us with your order details.
