Shape and Construction

1 - TOPSHEET

2 - BINDING PLATES

3 - FULL CARBON WEAVE

Between 8 and 12 strips of carbon, sandwiching either side of the ski’s woodcore, are laid unidirectionally, providing extra stability to the ski, without adding bulk to the build. Each carbon strip is woven into the fiberglass to provide strength and stiffness in the full length of the ski.

4 - Lightweight Karuba & Fiberglass Core

Karuba is an extremely lightweight wood with excellent strength properties. Karuba provides beautiful flex and vibration absorption without adding bulk, making it an ideal wood core for a touring ski that performs just as well on the uphill as on the downhill. It's set between two layers of fiberglass for strength, rigidity and durability.

5 - SINTERED BASE

1 - Elliptical Sidecut

Elliptical Sidecut is made up of a longer radius underfoot and shorter radius in the tip and tail of the ski. The long radius underfoot means you can pivot faster and easier, while a shorter radius in the tip and tail result in easier turn initiation. This sidecut allows for a wide variety of turn lengths, angles and mounting positions

2 - Mustache Flex

The "Mustache Flex" offers stability underfoot for solid edge hold, with a smooth, progressive flex in the tips and tails to easily absorb all the different bumps and snow debris the mountain throws at you.

3 - A Progressive Flat-Tail Shape and Profile

Tip and tail rocker + traditional camber, for the perfect blend of high performance edge hold, easy turn initiation, and float in soft snow. This ski combines the stability and drive of a flat tail with carefully tuned rocker that makes pivots and slashes intuitive.

Very nice but not for professional use

"After two seasons of professional use, I can say this is one of the best skis I’ve ever ridden. It's fun, responsive, and quick during rhythm changes; it performs beautifully in soft snow and offers good edge grip on hardpack. I’ve used this ski for both multi-day ski touring traverses and days of heliskiing. Truly very versatile. The only negative point is the base, which is honestly too delicate for this product's intended use. I would suggest upgrading the base to a black sintered version with higher density."

Agent 2

"Bonjour l'équipe Faction, J'espère que vous allez bien est que jusque là l'hiver a été bon pour vous! Heureux de pouvoir désormais skier avec des Faction. L'Agent 2, que j'utilise au quotidien dans mon métier de guide, est vraiment hyper polyvalent, stable, réactif et joueur. Je suis vraiment content en ayant pu le tester dans toutes les neiges. Bravo! Un petit retour sur la semelle: elle devient rapidement blanche et sèche malgré plusieurs fartages. A voir si comment ça évolue sur la durée. Je prendrai certainement un Agent 3 en début de saison prochaine également. Cordialement, Maxime Derivaz."

Agent 2 review

"Awesome skis fun, agile, versatile"

Benjamin S. (5/5)

Love my hot pink ride!

"I am absolutely loving my new skis! The hot pink color are an instant standout on the mountain—fun, bright, and easy to spot in any conditions. Performance-wise, they’ve been fantastic. They’re perfect for on‑piste carving and handle backside free‑skiing with confidence. The skis feel lightweight, which makes them super easy to maneuver, and they take quick, responsive turns without ever feeling unstable. Overall, they’re stylish, lively, and versatile—great for anyone who likes to mix solid groomer runs with a bit of freeride adventure."

Erica B. (5/5)

Aldo B. (5/5)

Hell YES

"I just used them for the first time this morning, have dynafit roations on them. They ski just like my dictators in a lot of ways, I'm stoked to get them out on tight trees."

Emily S. (5/5)

Awesome Ski

"In all conditions, up and down the track"

Daniel K. (5/5)

Fun, fun, fun

"These skis are light and nimble. I’ve been using them mostly on piste so far, but it’s very early on in my time with them."

James D. (5/5)

Skis to rule the mountain!

"A killer one ski quiver that can do everything you need it to!"

Lee J. (5/5)

Solid!

"Skis predictably well in firm snow, soft snow, and chop. Mostly touring on the ski, but a few days riding lifts. The edging ability is incredible on hard snow conditions. Looking at expanding the quiver to include the agent 4 for deep days."
