Depart. Ten Junior Skis 2027 FAQ
What age or ability level is the Départ. Ten Junior designed for?
The Départ. Ten Junior is Salomon's junior freestyle ski for FW26/27, positioned between the entry-level Départ First and the adult Départ models. It's built for junior freeskiers who are past the learning stage and want to explore terrain parks, side hits, and varied terrain. Available in 143, 153, and 163 cm lengths to fit different ages and sizes.
Does it come with bindings, or do I need to buy and mount those separately?
No. The Départ. Ten Junior is sold as a ski only, with no bindings and no mounting plate included. You need to buy compatible junior bindings separately and have them mounted by a shop technician.
What length should I get for my kid?
The Départ. Ten Junior comes in 143, 153, and 163 cm. As a general rule for junior freestyle skis, aim for a length that reaches somewhere between the chin and nose when standing upright. Shorter lengths (143) suit smaller or less experienced juniors; 163 cm is for taller, more advanced riders ready to move toward an adult ski feel.
What's the Wide Steel Edge, and why does it matter for a junior ski?
The Départ. Ten Junior uses a Wide Steel Edge, a wider-than-standard steel strip along the ski's perimeter. The wider edge can handle more tuning cycles before it wears out, which extends the usable life of the ski. For a junior who's still learning edge control and will need frequent tune-ups, this translates to a longer-lasting edge.
How wide is this ski underfoot — is it suited for mixed terrain or mostly groomers?
The Départ. Ten Junior measures 92-94mm underfoot depending on length (92mm at 143 cm, 94mm at 163 cm). That waist width puts it firmly in all-mountain freeride territory, wide enough to float on soft snow and varied terrain but not so wide that it becomes sluggish on groomers. It's a genuine junior freeski, not a piste-only tool.
