2027 Rossignol Soul Jr Junior Skiswith SpeedMachine J Boots and Poles

Little kids who want to ski like their older siblings get a real freeride twin tip in the Rossignol Soul Jr. A junior-specific flex keeps it forgiving through switch skiing, butters, and soft-snow slashes, and the light build keeps swing weight low enough for small skiers to control. The line between groomer and freeride blurs early here, which sets up a versatile skier for years down the road. We matched the Soul Jr with the Nordica Speed Machine Jr 2 Girl’s ski boots for their comfortable and supportive fit, perfect for keeping your young skier on the slopes all day. These boots feature easy entry and exit, with a roomy yet secure fit that ensures the little ones stay happy from the first run to the last chair.

Who it's for:

Smaller children who want the same kind of ski their older siblings are on. It suits kids at a beginner to intermediate level drawn to playful skiing, side hits and riding switch rather than making perfect carved turns.

Things to consider:

Softness is a trade. This ski feels loose at speed and on firm snow, and a kid racing their parents down a groomer will find the limit quickly. Families after a pure carving ski should look at an on-piste junior model instead.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Keep it short while the skier is small, since a shorter twin tip is far easier to spin and to ride switch, and both are skills this ski exists to encourage. Buying a size ahead for growth costs more than it saves on a playful ski like this one.
