{"product_id":"2027-line-ruckus-skis-ln261786","title":"2027 Line Ruckus Skis","description":"\u003cp\u003eA purpose-built junior park ski, the Line Ruckus is the right call for smaller shredders who want to learn rails, jumps, and switch riding. An aspen veneer core, symmetric flex pattern, and twin tip shape combine for a ski that's easy to control at junior speeds while still feeling like a real freestyle ski.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Symmetric Flex pattern is what makes the Ruckus work for kids learning freestyle. The flex is the same in the tip and tail, which means switch skiing feels just as natural as forward skiing, which is critical when a young skier is figuring out spins and presses for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJunior beginner through intermediate park skiers who are learning rails, jumps, and tricks. A great first park ski for kids who want a real freestyle experience without the price tag of a flagship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Ruckus is junior-specific from the ground up. Aspen veneer core keeps the ski light enough for junior weights and snappy enough to feel alive under your feet, and the symmetric flex pattern is the freestyle signature: equal flex in the tip and tail so switch riding feels natural. The 82mm waist is a true park-focused width, narrow enough to feel quick on rails and through spin transitions but wide enough for occasional all-mountain fun. The 2-3-2 rocker profile is more conservative than the adult freestyle skis in the Line lineup, which is the right call for junior skiers; less rocker means more edge contact and a more predictable feel for skiers still building technique. With a 13.5-meter radius at the 145cm length, the Ruckus has a tight turn shape that suits the speeds and terrain young skiers spend their time on. The available lengths from 135 to 155 cover the typical junior park skier nicely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 82mm waist isn't built for soft snow, so kids who chase powder days should look at the Bacon Shorty instead. The Ruckus is purpose-built for park skiing and rails.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; sizing considerations:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJunior sizing. Pick the length that matches the skier's height and weight using standard junior sizing guidelines from your local shop. Park-focused junior skiers tend to size shorter for easier rail work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Line","offers":[{"title":"135","offer_id":51757318832424,"sku":"LN261786|135","price":354.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"145","offer_id":51757318865192,"sku":"LN261786|145","price":354.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"155","offer_id":51757318897960,"sku":"LN261786|155","price":354.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2027-line-ruckus-skis-ln261786-1-ln261786.jpg?v=1778769541","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2027-line-ruckus-skis-ln261786","provider":"Ski Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
