Junior skis have certainly come a long way even in my lifetime. They used to just put me on some random straight ski that was 20 cm longer than my height and just told me to go have at it. I did, and enjoyed it, but a huge part of me wondered what would have been if something like the Nordica Unleashed junior skis were a part of my ski life as a kid. Built with a composite wood core and a partial sidewall, the twin-tipped Unleashed Junior is easy to turn, incredibly fun, and a great choice for a wide range of young skiers. At around 75 mm underfoot depending on width, these well-rounded skis will serve your little ripper well whether you’re shredding the park, ripping the groomers, or wandering through the woods.
