Intro
The Agent series is designed for freetouring. One of its standout features is its carob wood construction overlaid with a sheet of carbon fiber for stiffness without adding excess weight, for a lightweight ski that performs great on the uphill but also ridiculously fun on the downhill. Agent 3 has a modern, monodirectional shape with just the right amount of tip rocker, which works in harmony with the camber at the waist and nearly flat tail. A great freeriding daily driver, but also ideal as a downhill-oriented tourer. All in all, this is a ski that's both playful and reliable.
On the snow
A good all-rounder for tackling a bit of everything. Precise yet playful, reliable yet versatile, it has most of what you need for new-school freeride touring. The bindings seemed to be mounted a bit too far back to us, causing the ski to kick up and pivot more around the mount point because of its sidecut. It might be worth considering mounting the bindings one or two centimeters farther forward. The large shovel requires a fairly forward stance during turn initiation, whilst also allowing for a more natural posture when floating in deep powder. Solid when landing jumps, and with good tail support without any exaggerated imbalance, this is a ski that calls for both power and good technique. It's stable on hardpack and hugs the terrain. It's great with a pin binding, or choose a step-in for resort skiing.
Lab
Convex at tip and tail, nearly flat after 9 runs through the tuning machine. Only finished, limited wax. Decent edges 1.6 x 2 mm at 88°, base edge 1.1°. Not great finishing but precise; edge tuning at tip and tail a bit aggressive.
