Radar Boy's TRA Water Ski
The Radar Boy's TRA Water Ski is designed specifically to meet the needs of junior skiers who are developing their skills on the water. This model incorporates the trusted shape of our popular Senate series but is adapted with a customized flex pattern suited for lighter, smaller riders. The result is a ski that turns with ease, tracks steadily through the wakes, and supports smooth progression for young athletes learning the fundamentals of slalom skiing.
Our goal in developing the TRA was to give younger skiers equipment that supports both confidence and control from their very first rides. By using proven design principles and tailoring them to suit a junior's frame and strength, this ski allows for a more manageable experience without compromising on performance. It encourages skill development at a natural pace, making it a practical option for families, clubs, or anyone supporting the next generation of water skiers.
Key Features
- All-Terrain Core – This core construction is engineered to provide the most forgiving ride possible, ideal for skiers still mastering technique. It absorbs vibration and softens edge transitions, helping junior skiers maintain better control across varying water conditions and throughout longer sessions.
- 100% Carbon Fiber – The ski is constructed using a full carbon fiber layup, which delivers a consistent flex pattern across every ride. Carbon fiber enhances durability while keeping the overall weight low, allowing younger skiers to handle and maneuver the ski with greater ease and less fatigue.
- Kid-Specific Flex Pattern – A softer, more responsive flex profile helps younger skiers initiate turns and build edge control without requiring excessive force. This flexibility ensures that the ski performs optimally under the weight and skill level of junior riders.
- Senate-Inspired Shape – Adapted from the proven Senate platform, the TRA features a stable and versatile shape that promotes smooth carving and predictable wake crossings. This design supports learning through repetition while offering performance characteristics that scale with the skier's progression.
- Progressive Design Approach – The TRA is a result of thoughtful engineering that considers the learning curve of youth athletes. It combines ease-of-use with structural integrity to create a ski that encourages long-term development and repeat use across multiple seasons.
