The 2025 Volkl Racetiger GS R Junior skis with Race Plate are designed to deliver high-performance precision for young ski racers. Engineered to emulate the feel of full-size race skis, these junior skis offer exceptional speed, stability, and edge grip, making them ideal for competitive juniors looking to lay down blazing times in GS events.

Why we like it:

We appreciate that Volkl offers junior racers a lineup as comprehensive, high performing, and dependable as the Racetiger series. From race families everywhere, thanks Volkl!

Who it's for:

The Racetiger GS R Junior is perfect for young skiers who are serious about racing and seek a ski that delivers top-tier performance. Designed for advanced junior racers and those with competitive aspirations, these skis are suited for those who want to refine their technique and excel in giant slalom.

Highlights:

The Volkl Racetiger GS R Junior’s Multilayer wood core is supplemented with two full sheets of Titanal, enhancing power and grip on firm and icy snow. A slightly wider shovel helps young skiers initiate turns, making it easier to place turns above the gate, while a squared off tail means a clean finish out of the turn. Volkl’s 4504 Race base provides a fast and durable sliding surface, but perhaps the most important feature of the Racetiger series is the scaled construction, meaning that the construction changes slightly from length to length to ensure a proper flex and feel.

Things to consider:

The Racetiger GS R Junior is designed specifically for giant slalom racing, so it’s not a good choice for slalom racing, general all-mountain use, or recreational skiing.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Racetiger GS R skis true to size for a GS race ski.
