The new Vapor T.R.A. is born from a scaled Vapor mold. This Lithium construction junior ski is built to kindle the competitive fire and allow our mini rippers to progress faster than ever. Seeking the perfect blend of cross course speed and controlled drag into the turn, our design leader, Matt Rini (who has been honing juniors into World Champions for 30 years) let the creative juices go to work on this new shape. Fast where it needs to be, and more stable than you can imagine. Not just shorter but specifically redesigned to break down barriers and help foster the next wave of junior buoy-chasers.
Speed, balance and space; the three hallmarks of the Vapor lineage are what have made it the most popular ski on the market, season after season, design after design. While keeping the increased profile radius and sharper bevels of its predecessor, for the New 2026 Vapor line we focused our attention on smoothing out the marriage between tunnel rocker, bevel rocker, and ultimate tip height. We have created our smoothest, most balanced tunnel entry yet, allowing you to utilize as much of the tip of the ski as you like while you move into the turn. This gives the skier boundless confidence to stand wherever they like and still drive into the turn as aggressively as they dare. More controlled water flow from the tip through the forebody allows the ski to pull through the turn at a more even rate, from apex to edge change. A balanced tip of the ski equals a sturdy and reliable tail of the ski, allowing you to move at will, with confidence that the entire ski is going to support your move-ments, and the fin is going to hold. Forging a new design era at Radar Skis, we took the details from our past and melded them with the new direction of our future. Enjoy!
FEATURE FUNCTION SPOTLIGHT
Attitude-Control Tunnel
Goal one for the redesigned Vapor series was capitalizing on waterflow efficiency throughout the entire length of the ski. With particular emphasis on the waterflow entry point, Matt Rini started at the very tip of the ski and worked his way back. Finding the perfect marriage between top rocker (the bend of the ski you see on the top surface) and the tunnel rocker (the path the tunnel of the ski takes as it arcs up toward the tip) is critical in creating a predictable, balanced platform to stand on as the tip dives into the turn. Stability is king when you need to rip a turn, and the new Vapor delivers.
