At 150cm it's the longest option in the Backland Jr lineup, aimed at taller or stronger juniors in the 8–12 age range. It's a directional ski — not a twin tip, not a race ski — with an 85mm waist and a rocker-camber-rocker profile that handles softer snow well and still grips when things firm up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntermediate to advancing junior skiers — kids who've got their turns dialed and want more mountain to play with. The 85mm waist and All-Mountain Rocker give them enough float for a powder day without making the ski squirrelly on packed snow. If your kid is skiing confidently on blues and starting to eye the black terrain, this is a good fit. It's a directional shape, so kids who want to ski switch or spend all day in the park will want something else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso worth knowing: Willi's runs a \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/junior-buyback-program-6-14\"\u003eJunior Buyback Program\u003c\/a\u003e for ages 6–14. Kids grow fast — this program helps you get into the right length each season without buying new gear every year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTech that matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Densolite core keeps the ski light — 1,250g per ski — so it doesn't wear out a younger skier's legs on a full day. The All-Mountain Rocker profile has an early-rise tip for float in softer snow and a minimal tail rocker that keeps edge contact long enough for real grip on harder snow. DuraCap sidewall construction runs from base to topsheet for good edge hold and durability. The 11.6m turn radius at 150cm suits a mix of medium and longer carved turns, not super short pivot turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Willi's\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe've been fitting kids for skis in the Pittsburgh area since 1970, and junior gear is something we take seriously.
