Radar Men’s Session Waterski
The Radar Men’s Session is built with stability and ease at its core, making it the most approachable ski in Radar’s Open Water Series. Featuring more surface area than any ski Radar has produced, the Session delivers effortless deep-water starts and a smooth, flowy ride once on plane.
A level spine and integrated Grip Rails 2.0 work together to reduce drag and improve edge engagement, allowing the ski to feel fast and efficient despite its increased width. Combined with Radar’s All-Terrain construction, the Session remains composed when crossing wakes or skiing in rougher water, helping riders stay comfortable and in control during longer sets.
The Open Water Series is designed around three clear objectives: quick and easy planing, minimal drag for sustained cruising, and true slalom-style performance. By adding more surface area than any other Radar series and pairing it with a flat spine and grip rail technology, the Session breaks traditional design barriers while still behaving like a proper slalom ski.
Easy to get up on, stable at speed and confidence-inspiring on edge, the Session lowers the barrier to entry into slalom skiing without sacrificing fun or performance. Whether cruising lakes or rivers, it delivers a smooth, efficient and enjoyable ride.
Feature Function Spotlight:
Grip Rails 2.0 address the traditional challenge of wider skis being harder to roll and hold an edge. Angled rails create a pseudo-tunnel that channels water toward the centre of the ski, improving roll speed, grip and edge hold through the wakes. This design merges exceptional ease of use with genuine slalom performance, setting the Session apart in the wide-ski category.
