2026 Atomic Bent JR Junior Skis with SpeedMachine J Boots and Poles
The 2026 Atomic Bent Junior with brings the playful energy of the Bent series to a scaled-down, easy-handling youth package. With its lightweight build, forgiving flex, and twin-tip design, it’s made to help kids explore the whole mountain, from first groomer laps to park features and side hits, all while building skills and confidence along the way. We paired the Bent JR with the Nordica Speed Machine Jr Boy’s ski boot because it provides young skiers with a solid blend of comfort, support, ad performance which with these skis will propel the development of their skills. Tailored for junior skiers who are progressing quickly, the Speed Machine Jr offers a secure fit with reliable performance no matter the terrain or snow conditions.
Why we like it:
The Bent Junior keeps everything fun about the adult Bent models but tunes it perfectly for younger skiers. It’s easy to steer, stable enough for confidence, and light enough to keep energy high through a full day on snow.
Who it's for:
Best for beginner to intermediate kids who want to ski everywhere and try everything. It’s equally at home making smooth turns on groomers as it is encouraging creativity in the park.
Highlights:
The hybrid foam and wood core gives the Bent Junior a soft, approachable flex that’s perfect for smaller, lighter riders. Its twin-tip shape opens the door to switch skiing and playful progression, while the rockered tip and tail make turn initiation easier and help with float in soft snow. Stable yet forgiving, it gives kids the control they need without limiting their fun.
Things to consider:
This ski is designed for lighter, developing skiers. Stronger or more aggressive juniors may prefer moving up to the full-sized Bent 85 or Bent 90 for more support and capability.
Fit & sizing considerations:
The Bent Junior skis true to size. A length between chin and nose height offers the best balance of maneuverability and stability for most junior skiers.
