The 2027 Head Oblivion Jr with Atomic Colt 7 Bindings gives kids a proper park-ready all mountain twin option, just like mom and dad. A Sandwich Twintip Construction, Tuffwall protection, and the PNP Rocker profile scale down the adult Oblivion tech into a junior platform made for progression and fun.

Why we like it:

This is not just a shrunken grown-up ski. The construction is genuinely scaled for junior skiing, with the right flex, the right weight, and a true twin-tip shape that lets kids ride switch without fighting the ski.

Who it's for:

Progressing junior skiers who are getting into park skiing or playful all-mountain riding. it's great for kids who like to mix groomer runs with side hits, switch riding, and the occasional park session.

Highlights:

This is a real-deal ski, and as such, you get all the real-deal tech to go with it. The Sandwich Twintip Construction holds an edge with confidence and handles switch riding without feeling sloppy. The UHM Base is structured for glide, and Tuffwall edge reinforcement supplies the durability progressing kids need when landings are not yet perfect. The PNP Rocker is the same rocker-camber-rocker twin-tip profile as the adult Oblivion line, scaled to junior lengths, pivoting easily for kids learning to release an edge while still holding camber underfoot.

Things to consider:

It's aimed at confident, progressing junior skiers rather than first-timers, so kids just learning would do better on a softer, more forgiving junior ski. For kids more drawn to racing or pure groomer skiing, there are frontside options that would better suit them.

Fit & sizing considerations:

These run true to size, so pick by height and ability, dropping a size for early-progression skiers and going up as confidence and speed build.
