Know before you buy
Yes, these are specifically designed for beginners. The U-Flex technology and soft flex make it much easier for children to learn how to turn and control their speed compared to stiffer, adult-style skis.
The early rise rocker lifts the tip of the ski slightly off the snow, which helps prevent the edges from catching. This makes initiating turns much smoother and helps young skiers build confidence without feeling like they are fighting the equipment.
Yes, these come with EL 4.5 junior-specific bindings included. They are adjustable to fit boot sole lengths between 195 mm and 263 mm, allowing for some growth as your child's feet get larger.
The 80 cm length is generally best for very young or smaller children just starting out. Because these are skiboards, they are meant to be shorter than traditional skis to prioritize maneuverability and ease of learning over high-speed stability.
No, these are designed specifically for groomed runs. Their construction, width, and short length are optimized for hard-packed snow where a beginner can focus on learning the mechanics of turning and stopping.
