The Radar TRA  has groms ripping open water and excelling through the slalom course. We’re so stoked with the ski’s popularity and how easy kids are making turns and crossing the wakes! Any young ripper is guaranteed to improve riding the new T.R.A. and it finds its groove at 20-34 MPH!

The T.R.A.'s ability to carry speed is unmatched in the industry. This speed allows the skier to maintain width on the boat ultimately giving a sense of freedom sought after by those that ski in the course as well as those ripping open water turns. By taking the Vapor shape and adding two tenths of an inch in extra width Radar has created a stable riding platform. This platform creates the balance needed for a skier to feel at home. While the profile of the ski allows the skier to feel the speed and angle sought after at any level.

When it came time to design a kid’s specific ski Radar wanted to make something that would have youngsters begging to ski. By utilizing the Senate shape with a kid’s specific flex. Radar created a ski that is easy to turn and efficient through the wakes. In designing this way, Radar made it easy for juniors to progress at a rapid rate, leaving them with a smile on their face and the desire to ski every day.

Features

Tip Rocker
Starting the tip rocker directly at the end of the flat spot gives the ski more fluidity and makes the transition from turning to pulling seamless. More rocker in the tip helps the finish of the turn happen more quickly and with more stability. 

Flat Spot
The flat spot is your balance point. By making this point right at the toes of your front foot you get a balanced place to stand at every single turn. This balance allows you to stand with confidence and make symmetrical turns on both sides of the course. 

Straight Lines
Our unique straight lines allow the ski to be the fastest on the market. The lack of outside radius decreases drag and lets the ski flow with ease from side to side. In turn you're getting more cross course speed than any other ski on the market. 

Rocker
Rocker defines the pivot point on a ski. Radar moved that contact point closer to the ball of your front foot. This helps the ski pivot easier. The tight radius quick turns are then balanced with our new tail rocker lines that add tail support off the buoy. Giving you the ability to build more speed from a wider point. 

Edge Angle
At two tenths of an inch wider than the Vapor the width of the TRA allows the ski to roll on edge at a moderate level. This width allows a skier to progress with ease as they instantly feel the balance and control of the bigger riding platform.

Find my slalom ski size

A slalom ski is sized on two things: your weight, and the speed you ski at. Faster boat speeds support a shorter ski; slower speeds need more surface area, so you size up.

Rider weight 30–32 mph 32–34 mph 34–36 mph
Under 45 kg (100 lb)63"63"61"
45 – 61 kg (100 – 135 lb)65"63"63"
59 – 73 kg (130 – 160 lb)66"65"65"
68 – 82 kg (150 – 180 lb)67"66"65"
77 – 91 kg (170 – 200 lb)68"67"66"
86 – 100 kg (190 – 220 lb)69"68"67"
95 kg (210 lb) and up69"+69"68"

Most recreational skiers on Kawartha lakes run 30–32 mph, so read the first column unless you course ski. Between two sizes? Take the longer ski — it is more forgiving and easier to get out of the water.

Still not sure? Call the shop on 705-652-6852 — we will size you in two minutes — or try it in person at our Lakefield store.
