What do you think of the Machine 2 Mini as an allround spring touring ski?
We ski slowly, so not worried about stability at speed, but still, sometimes you build some speed in the turn, and hit bad snow.
Also, with the minimal camber, how do you find them skinning up and skiing down very hard, icy snow? Again, this would be at slow speed, not looking to charge, just looking for control and reliability.

Do you ever use the agent 2 inbounds/on piste? I’m curious how you think it would handle as a one ski do everything in and out of the resort? Thanks!

Awesome video! From curiosity, why did you drill holes in the tips? What is it for?
