La Machine Grom Ski - 2026 - Kids'

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’m always impressed with how light and playful these skis feel. The Paulownia core and carbon layup keep uphill transitions easy, and the extended rocker makes turning effortless in soft snow. They’re a confidence builder for young skiers learning to tour and ski powder, but they still feel solid enough for linking turns down a variable face."

We love the La Machine Grom Ski for helping younger skiers step confidently into the world of ski touring and off-piste adventure. Faction built this ski to bring smiles from the skin track to the descent, balancing featherlight construction with playful float. From the first kick turn to powder turns in the trees, this ski inspires fun and confidence in the backcountry.

Built with a Paulownia wood core, the La Machine Grom keeps weight down without losing strength or dampness, making it an ideal uphill companion. Two full carbon layers sandwich the core for torsional rigidity and responsiveness, giving groms a lively feel with every turn. Extended rocker in the tip and tail ensures catch-free maneuverability and float in deep snow. With recycled and locally sourced materials rounding out the build, this ski brings performance and sustainability together for the next generation of backcountry riders.
