Know before you buy
These skis feature U-Flex technology, which allows the ski to flex more easily under the foot. This flexibility makes it much simpler for young skiers to initiate turns and transition between edges without needing excessive force.
Yes, the Elan Maxx comes with EL 4.5 junior-specific bindings included. These are designed to be compatible with the ski's flex profile and are pre-mounted for convenience.
The early rise rocker profile lifts the tip of the ski slightly off the snow. This design helps prevent the tips from catching, making turn initiation smoother and helping kids build confidence as they learn to control their speed.
The included EL 4.5 bindings have a DIN range of 0.75 to 4.5. This range is specifically calibrated for lighter-weight junior skiers, ensuring the bindings release appropriately for their size and ability level.
Yes, the Synflex core is a lightweight, synthetic material designed specifically for junior skis. It provides a forgiving, consistent flex that is durable enough to handle the learning process while keeping the overall weight low to reduce fatigue.
