If your kid is spending more time in the terrain park than on the groomers, the Fischer Nightstick Jr is built for them. It's a junior freestyle ski, and the twin tip shape allows a rider to land and ski away backward just as comfortably as forward. The construction is deliberately tough, because park skis get dragged across rails and boxes, and it stays light enough that a child can spin it without much effort. The Nightstick Jr. suits younger or smaller kids who are already comfortable on snow and have started seeking out jumps rather than avoiding them.
