*Junior Race Plate Compatibility Notice
The New Marker Junior Racing Plate is not compatible with X-Cell 16 and X-Cell 12 Bindings. All Marker XComp (2020-2021 and newer), COMP (2024), Race 10 TCX, Race Junior 8, and 4.5 Junior Bindings work with this new plate.
Description & Features
The Racetiger GS R JR has been tested and developed with Volkl's ski legends and their children. The result is geometry with a slightly wider shovel, which provides more turning support and helps young racers place their turns above the gates. All lengths are equipped with a tip rocker, full sidewall, multi-layer wood core and two layers of full Titanal. As the thickness of the Titanal and wood ratio changes from length to length, the skis ‘grow’ with and are optimally tailored to the athlete. They come complete with a pre-mounted Marker JR Race Interface plate, which has been matched to the ski and offers excellent power transmission, edge grip and bending characteristics.
This race ski also features a new Race plate interface with a joint in the center, creating a much more harmonic bending curve. The new drill pattern allows a more direct power transfer, and the Comp binding is attached with only three (3) instead of four (4) screws. This way, the ski is more forgiving and smoother to ride.

Technical Info
POWERED BY TITANIUM
Constructed of extra thin and strong aluminum alloy providing perfect dampening characteristics. The titanium setup makes the ski agile and dynamic, especially friends of a hard, fast, and aggressive riding style benefit from the quick response of this construction.
MULTI-LAYER WOOD CORE
A combination of lighter, softer poplar wood and heavier, stronger beech wood provides an ideal blend of lightweight, strength, durability and damping: The beech typically concentrates where the most power is needed in the ski, such as under the binding or alongside the edges and sidewalls.
TIP ROCKER
An early-rise tip design for racing. The combination of an early rise tip and a classic camber profile in the rest of the ski provides easy, smooth turn entry regardless of conditions. The ski is forgiving and easy to handle.
RACE FINISH
World Cup skis come with special edge angles for better grip in fast and tight turns.
Zebra Base Structure
The Zebra pattern is a more aggressive base structure to offer the best possible precision & steering characteristics for the front of the skis.
