Description & Features

The Volkl Racetiger JR GS ski is a junior giant slalom race ski built to support developing athletes as they progress through GS racing. Designed with input from Völkl athletes and their families, it delivers a balanced mix of precision, stability, and forgiveness.

A Grown Layup construction adjusts Titanal thickness and wood core composition by length, ensuring each ski matches the strength, size, and skill level of the athlete. This creates a consistent feel across the size range while supporting proper technique and progression.

The slightly wider shovel helps initiate turns earlier and stay on line above the gate. Combined with full sidewalls, tip rocker, and a race-tuned base, this GS ski provides reliable edge grip and smooth control as racers develop confidence at speed.

Construction & Technology

Grown Layup

Construction is tuned by length, adjusting Titanal thickness and wood core composition to match skier size and ability. This ensures consistent performance and progression across the full size range.

Full Titanal Construction

Titanal layers provide stability and damping, helping young racers maintain control and confidence at higher speeds.

Multi-layer Wood Core

A blend of beech and poplar balances strength, durability, and weight. The ratio changes by length to better match athlete development and performance needs.

Full Sidewall ABS

Provides consistent edge grip and precise power transfer for better control on firm race surfaces.

Tip Rocker

An early-rise tip improves turn initiation while maintaining strong edge hold through the rest of the ski.

Zebra Base Structure

An aggressive base pattern that improves glide and steering precision in GS race conditions.

Race Finish

World Cup-level base and edge preparation designed for maximum grip and speed.

Recommended Binding

Compatible Marker junior race bindings pair with the Marker Junior Race Plate to deliver consistent retention, power transfer, and control for GS racing. Binding is sold separately.

This recommendation is based on common junior GS setups. Binding choice should match skier weight, ability, and DIN requirements. The Marker Junior Race Plate requires compatible Marker race bindings to ensure proper interface, setup, and consistent performance.
