Radar Vapor Lithium Waterski
The Radar Vapor Lithium is the workhorse of the Vapor line, delivering elite-level slalom performance with everyday versatility. Equally comfortable running deep into the course or carving aggressive free-ski lines, the Lithium brings the speed, balance and space that define the Vapor lineage in a construction designed for consistency and value.
Born from the same mould as the Pro Build, the Lithium replaces the PMI core with a machined PVC core—a proven, industry-standard material known for reliable response and durability. This construction maintains high-performance characteristics while offering a more approachable feel for long sets, early-morning sessions and tournament days alike.
For 2026, the Vapor series focuses on refining the relationship between tunnel rocker, bevel rocker and ultimate tip height. The result is the smoothest and most balanced tunnel entry yet, allowing skiers to use as much of the tip as they choose when moving into the turn. This balance creates confidence to stand where desired on the ski while still driving aggressively through the arc.
Controlled water flow from the tip through the forebody allows the ski to pull through the turn at an even, predictable rate from apex to edge change. A balanced tip produces a stable, reliable tail, enabling confident movement and consistent fin engagement throughout the course. Drawing from proven design elements and refined with modern shaping, the Vapor Lithium represents a new era of Radar performance.
Feature Function Spotlight:
The redesigned Attitude-Control Tunnel focuses on maximising waterflow efficiency across the entire length of the ski. Development began at the tip, refining how top rocker and tunnel rocker interact as the ski enters the turn. This balance creates a predictable platform as load increases, delivering the stability required to attack turns with confidence and control.
