{"product_id":"faction-agent-1-26-27","title":"Faction Agent 1 Touring Skis 26\/27","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Faction Agent 1 is an 86mm unisex ski, the narrowest model in Faction's carbon Agent range, built for the uphill. Faction gives it a Float 3\/10 rating — the lowest in the range — which sums up its purpose: skinning quickly and holding firm snow, not floating powder. There is no metal in it. A light Karuba woodcore sits beneath a full carbon weave, backed by a full-strength sidewall, tip-and-tail cap protection and XL 2.5mm edges that survive firm skin tracks and variable snow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFaction splits the range by width and float: the 86mm Agent 1 for firm-snow climbing, the 96mm Agent 2 as the do-most middle, and the 106mm Agent 3 for the descent. The Agent 1 suits a skier who earns their turns and wants a light, nimble tool for spring corn, kick-turns and firm bootpacks — someone who cares more about an efficient climb and a precise firm-snow descent than about float. Independent reviews read it as calm and composed for a carbon ski, while noting it feels slightly heavy for its width and likes to be driven at low speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a specialist rather than a do-anything one-ski quiver. Skiers who only ride lifts will be happier on a resort all-mountain or carving ski. If you want float for soft snow, move up the range to the 96mm Agent 2 or the 106mm Agent 3. And the Agent line begins at intermediate, so it is not a first pair of skis. Unsure which width matches your touring? Tell us where and how you ski, and we will steer you to the right Agent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Agent 1 ships flat, without bindings. Bring your boots and we will fit and mount a tech\/pin setup for pure touring or a hybrid for mixed use, and cut the matching Agent-series skins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faction","offers":[{"title":"White \/ 154","offer_id":51645047996711,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-WT-154-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 162","offer_id":51645048029479,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-WT-162-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 170","offer_id":51645048062247,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-WT-170-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 178","offer_id":51645048095015,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-WT-178-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 186","offer_id":51645048127783,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-WT-186-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple \/ 154","offer_id":51645048160551,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-PR-154-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple \/ 162","offer_id":51645048193319,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-PR-162-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple \/ 170","offer_id":51645048226087,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-PR-170-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple \/ 178","offer_id":51645048258855,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-PR-178-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple \/ 186","offer_id":51645048291623,"sku":"FCSKW26-AG10-PR-186-1","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/7177\/0663\/files\/FCSKW26-AG10-1_WHT_Large_d001fc1f-f985-476e-8fdd-9ccdaf71ad15.png?v=1784101137","url":"https:\/\/933534.myshopify.com\/products\/faction-agent-1-26-27","provider":"PTO SKI \u0026 Snowboard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
