Description
This set is the ideal gateway for young skiers at Elan, offering a combination of technologies to facilitate learning and control.
1. The Ski: Elan Maxx Junior
Target Audience: Young beginner to intermediate skiers (generally 4 to 12 years old).
-
U-Flex Technology: This is the key technology at Elan for juniors.
-
The ski is designed to be 25% more flexible than standard junior skis.
Advantage: This increased flexibility allows children, even the lightest, to properly flex the ski (bend it). This allows them to engage the edge and carve like adults, making learning faster and more fun.
Profile: Uses a Full Rocker profile to facilitate turn initiation, pivoting, and minimize edge catching.2. The Binding: EL 4.5 Shift (or EL 4.5 GW)
-
This binding is generally manufactured by Elan or Tyrolia to fit perfectly with Elan junior skis.
DIN Range: 0.75 to 4.5. A very low range essential for light children, ensuring safe release in case of a fall (maximum safety).
Shift / Rail: Indicates that the binding is mounted on a rail. It allows for quick and tool-free adjustment of the sole length (boot size), which is crucial for tracking the child's growth.
GW (GripWalk): (If indicated) Ensures compatibility with traditional alpine boots and new GripWalk Junior soles.
In summary:
The Elan Maxx Junior is notable for its U-Flex technology, which is one of the best features for learning to ski, as it allows the child to truly feel and control the ski from the very first day.
