Skip the resort scene and push out into the alpine on the touring-oriented Faction Agent 90W Skis. A lightweight core is paired with ample tip rocker and 5mm of camber underfoot to create a nimble ski that crushes the uphill and doesn't blow it on the descent. Take on those long tours with ease, arc nice turns, and try to stay away from the hoards of people.
5 mm Camber – Maximum rebound and quick turn initiation.
M Tip Rocker – 5 mm of Rocker over 150 mm of length.
Medium Flex – Forgiving and damp through choppy snow, but doesn't seem washy at higher speeds.
Medium Turning Radius – Excels at all speeds and in all conditions. Quick edge-to-edge without feeling hooky.
Flat Tail
Paulownia Wood Core – Paulownia is a very light hardwood that is stable and easy to machine. Cores made with this material are ligther than Balsa/Flax cores, but are more expensive and require a lamination layer such as carbon fiber to improve responsiveness.
STP Technology – A patent-pending process used to press a small wave into the length of the ski. This creates a 'pre-stressed' core with increased torsional strength, letting Faction use less wood to create lighter, more forgiving skis with above-average edge-grip. For 14/15, Faction developed a variation of the technique that provides a perfectly flat base.
Fibreglass – Laminates like fibreglass are used to compliment the properties of the core material by increasing torsional strength, edge-grip and rebound.
Phenol Binding Plate – Phenol is a hard plastic material that secures the binding screws. The one-piece design fits most touring bindings with centre screws.
Gloss Lacquered ICP2112 Topsheet – Used on most Faction skis, gloss lacquered ICP2112 topsheets are colourfast and look great. The lacquer is applied to the ski after pressing.
Sandwich Construction – Used on most Faction skis. A traditional manufacturing method that provides strength, durability, good grip and edge hold. Rubber is used to dampen vibration and bond the base layers to the core.
Printed Ptex 4000 – Sintered PTEX 4000 base material is more porous and holds wax better.
1.8 mm Edges – Used on 99% of Faction skis, the 1.8 mm hardened steel edges are strong and dependable.
Digital Printing – Used on Faction's core and women's models, digital printing provides greater flexibility for designing complex graphics and requires no setup process, however the colors are not as bright or strong as the silkscreen method.
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
