The all-new 2025 Atomic Bent Jr with L6 GW binding and Nordica SpeedMachine J provides a super maneuverable, stable, and easy-to-handle package for junior skiers aged 5-13 years old. Designed to inspire confidence and fun across the mountain, these skis ensure enjoyable progression and years of future skiing. With a narrow footprint and durable construction, they make turning and learning effortless for young skiers. We paired the Bent 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 Jr stands out in the junior all-mountain category for its exceptional maneuverability, stability, and intuitiveness, making it a top choice for young skiers.

Who it's for:

Ideal for progressing junior skiers who are mastering skiing fundamentals across the mountain. These skis will help them build skills and foster a love for the sport.

Highlights:

The directional shape of the Bent Jr promotes proper skiing technique and fundamental skills. Atomic’s Densolite core enhances stability while keeping the skis lightweight for optimal agility and maneuverability. DuraCap sidewalls provide added sturdiness, helping young skiers learn to manage the ski’s flex pattern, and the L6 GW binding provides a reliable and safe release when things go awry.

Things to consider:

Junior skiers interested in racing may need to look at other options, as the Bent Jr is more suited to all-mountain freeride skiing.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The skis run true to size. Absolute beginners might consider sizing down slightly but should account for growth spurts.
