Radar Senate Graphite Waterski
The Radar Senate Graphite strikes an ideal balance between shape-driven performance and material-driven speed. Designed to deliver strong acceleration with a touch of forgiveness, this ski blends confidence-inspiring control with the lively response skiers want for both open water sessions and course skiing.
A full carbon-wrapped polyurethane (Aero Core) construction provides the speed needed to carry momentum into the wakes, while offering a slightly damper, more forgiving feel if the skier gets momentarily out of position. This controlled response allows a brief moment to reset before the ski accelerates again, creating a smoother, more manageable ride without sacrificing performance.
The Senate series is built on Radar’s proven Vapor-inspired shape, enhanced with subtle width added between the tunnel and the edge bevel. Rather than simply scaling the ski wider, this approach preserves the Vapor’s active wet surface, ensuring the Senate Graphite rolls, grips and turns with familiar precision while providing added support at slightly slower speeds.
Fast where it matters and composed through the turn, the Senate Graphite delivers consistent performance across a wide range of skiers. From recreational crossover use to committed 34 mph course skiing, it offers an accessible yet capable platform that continues to redefine personal limits on the water.
Feature Function Spotlight:
Performance Width is the key to the Senate Graphite’s blend of ease and performance. By adding surface area via a subtle rail between the concave and the bevel, the ski gains lift and support without compromising roll speed, grip or drive through the wakes. This design allows skiers to slow the boat while maintaining the ability to attack the water with confidence.
