Racetiger SL R + plate 10mm + UVO

Designed for U14 and U16 skiers, the new Racetiger SL Race Stock size 155 underwent a complete overhaul going into the 2020/21 season, with 3 key changes. First, our engineers developed a new, quicker-turning shape. To work with that shape we adjusted the torsional flex in the forebody of the ski, making it softer to allow for smoother turn initiation and a more forgiving feel, allowing the skier to make the split-second adjustments often needed in Slalom. The third key change was an adjustment in the ski’s longitudinal profile to allow a softer flex under foot, for quicker turns and more efficient use of the new sidecut shape.

Radius: 12 m

Size: 155 cm
