La machine 1 micro (25-26)

La Machine Micro takes the key elements that earned La Machine cult status, and packs it into a Micro package. This ultra-light, carbon-loaded ski is the backcountry tourer's dream — it's softer and 200g lighter than our popular Agent skis, so you can move as swiftly as a cat through off-piste terrain. Its progressive, ultra-rockered shape inspires effortless float, pivoting and smearing in variable snow. Backed by the finest, most durable Austrian construction, powered 100% by renewable energy.

1% FOR THE PLANET
As a proud member of 1% for the Planet, we are committed to donating 1% of all sales from the Agent Series to support organizations, individuals and events that are focused on bringing about a positive impact on the environment we love and enjoy. Our partnership with 1% for the Planet extends far beyond financial aid: Our teams collaborate on volunteer and research projects, as well as marketing initiatives.

BIO-BASED RESIN
This ski uses an environmentally-conscious, bio-based resin that has 35% of its molecular range derived from plant material. It has the same structural properties as resin derived solely from petrochemical products. 

FULL STRENGTH SIDEWALL
A construction that places strips of protective material along the sides of each core, between the edge and the topsheet. Sidewalls provide the best possible edge hold and stability when the ski is engaged in a turn as well as protecting the wood core, edges and topsheet from impact and outside damage.

EXTENDED TIP/ TAIL ROCKER
We employ Extended Rocker, a reverse camber shape in the tip and tails, which along with waist width, is the most important element in providing float in fresh snow. Extended rocker also makes pivoting and turn initiation easier and means you have less chance of catching an edge. 

Features

• ELLIPTICAL SIDECUT
  Elliptical Sidecut is made up of a longer radius underfoot and shorter radii 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 turns lengths, angles and mounting positions (stay tuned for our mounting guide).
• ANTI CHIP MICRO CAP
  Micro-cap construction is a hybrid of a premium, sandwich sidewall construction fused with a lightweight, durable cap construction. With micro-cap, the sandwich construction provides awesome edge hold and torsional stability while the ski’s topsheet wraps around and meets the sidewall, protecting the fragile join that can be prone to chipping.
• MUSTACHE FLEX
  This flex works best for most skiers. Enjoy stability in front of, and behind the binding area to provide solid edge hold. Then, we transition to smooth, progressive flex in the tips and tails to easily absorb all the different bumps and snow debris on the mountain. This flex allows for an easier turn initiation and finish. 
• SUSTAINABLE WOOD CORE
  Our poplar, beech and ash cores are sourced from the forests near our European factories, eliminating the carbon cost of transporting raw materials across great distances. Our raw materials are FSC accredited, meaning that the forests from which our wood is sourced are managed to support environmental and societal sustainability.
