Radar Junior Vapor TRA Waterski - Ice / Race Red

Radar Vapor T.R.A. Junior Waterski

The Radar Vapor T.R.A. is a junior-focused slalom waterski born from a scaled Vapor mould, designed to accelerate progression for young, competitive skiers. Built using the proven Lithium construction, this ski blends cross-course speed with controlled drag into the turn, helping developing riders build confidence and consistency earlier in their progression.

Designed by Matt Rini—whose experience developing junior skiers into world champions spans three decades—the Vapor T.R.A. is not simply a shorter version of an adult ski. Every element has been specifically reworked to provide exceptional stability, predictable turning behaviour and the right balance of speed for lighter riders. The result is a ski that feels fast where it needs to be, yet remarkably composed through the turn.

For 2026, the Vapor series refines the interaction between tunnel rocker, bevel rocker and ultimate tip height. The smooth, balanced tunnel entry allows junior skiers to engage more of the tip as they move into the turn, giving them the confidence to stand where they need to while still driving aggressively through the arc. Controlled water flow from tip through the forebody ensures even pull from apex to edge change.

A balanced tip leads to a reliable, supportive tail, allowing developing skiers to move freely with confidence that the entire ski—and the fin—will hold through every phase of the turn. The Vapor T.R.A. is purpose-built to break down barriers and foster the next generation of buoy chasers.

Feature Function Spotlight:

The refined Attitude-Control Tunnel is central to the Vapor T.R.A.’s performance. Development focused on maximising waterflow efficiency from the very tip of the ski, balancing top rocker with tunnel rocker to create a predictable platform as the ski engages the turn. This stability is critical for junior skiers learning to load the ski confidently and consistently.
