Here's a vid of my 5 yr old trying to bunny hop/ollie and grab safety (i think that's the grab?).
http://media.nscdn.com/uploads/member/videos/1177016439HayGalv.wmv

I wish I would have been filming when he went off the side of a fader. He hit it like a champ with some speed but was totally 'in the back seat' and took a big header. He never hit it with that same amount of speed again.....

I am hoping to get him some twins next year but haven't found any around 110. Anyone seen any?

Times have changed  hahaha.... Heads Mojo 65 starts at 77cm!!


'07 Head Mojo 65 Junior Twin Tip Skis
'07 Head Mojo 65 Junior Twin Tip Skis
Perfectly easy handling, with a view to a freeride thrill. The Mojo 65 is the right ski for kids who dream of becoming the next Jon Olsson. Built for the junior skier who is just not quite ready enough to be on the Mojo 70.

Part of our philosophy at Head Skis is to do everything we can to support people that are new to the sport. The easier we make it for people to get involved in our sport today, the more great skiers we'll have enjoying the slopes tomorrow. Count on it: There is a lot a ski can do to help people unfold their talent. This gear was developed to give them a real kick-start in skiing.

I would get some Fujatives.... they come in 119. They're really wide for a little kid though. You'll find something next year i'm sure.
