2024 Volkl Racetiger SL R Jr w Plate

Designed with input from racers both old and young, Volkl’s Racetiger SL R Junior Ski sets the precedent for slalom progression in 2024. Equipped with some pretty impressive upgrades for the new season, this new rendition of Volkl’s Renntiger makes the perfect accomplice for aspiring junior racers. A torsionally soft tip reduces stiffness by 60%, allowing young skiers to initiate their turns with far less energy. An increase in tip reactivity and a decrease in athlete exertion make this softer slalom tip a highly beneficial feature for intuitive and efficient performance. The Racetiger SL R’s construction remains pretty standard for a race ski, with the same tip rocker, full sidewall, wood core, and full titanal layer as its GS counterpart. What sets the Racetiger SL R apart from other race skis is its unique ability to grow with every athlete. As the length of the ski gets longer, the thickness of the titanal and the ratio of the wood also increases, creating a ski that performs at the same level as the skier. Older, more experienced skiers will find their ski to be perfectly tailored to their age group and skill level, while younger, less experienced skiers will find the same—but in a package that’s a bit less intimidating than its longer counterparts. Complete with a two-piece race plate interface, the Volkl Racetiger SL R Junior Ski remains exceptionally meticulous—offering a more direct edge response than ever before.
