Ready to ski straight out of the box, the Maverick J pairs a forgiving build with C5 GW Bindings for first-time riders
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying
"The Maverick J is exactly what a first ski should be. The Densolite Core keeps it light and easy to maneuver, and that 1.3˚ base edge bevel is forgiving enough that beginners can focus on learning movements instead of fighting the ski. The C5 GW Binding has a solid DIN range for small kids, and the whole setup is ready to go — just get it mounted by a tech and head to the hill."
Beginner to Intermediate Junior All-Mountain Skiers
The Maverick J is built for young skiers just starting out, with a setup that prioritizes forgiveness and ease of movement over performance demands. It suits kids taking their first real runs on snow and building the foundational skills that will carry them forward as they progress.
Groomed All-Mountain Terrain
The Maverick J is designed for the groomed slopes where most beginners spend their early days on snow. The rocker-camber profile (10% tip rocker / 90% camber) keeps the tip lifted for easy turn entry, while the camber-dominant base delivers stable, predictable contact underfoot. Short turn radius and flat tail keep the ride simple and manageable.
Forgiving Learner Build with Bindings Included
The Maverick J is built around a Densolite Core that keeps weight low and flex accessible for small bodies, while Dura Cap construction adds durability for the learning process. The 1.3˚ base edge bevel softens the catch points that trip up beginners, and the Extruded Base is low-maintenance and easy to keep running. C5 GW Bindings with a DIN range of .75–4.5 are included and sized for young skiers — bindings require mounting by a certified technician before use.

We Are Skiing
From the piste to the powder, distant backcountry peaks to local Nordic tracks, Atomic exists to drive skiing forward.
Phantom Glide By DPS Skis
This ski is compatible with Phantom Glide, the long-lasting base treatment from DPS Skis. Backcountry technicians apply and UV-cure it before the skis ship, so they arrive ready to ride with no waxing needed.
How It Works
Applied By Backcountry Techs
Backcountry technicians treat and UV-cure every pair in the shop before it leaves the warehouse, so the skis arrive ready to ride with no setup required.
Glide That Outlasts Wax
Wax sits on top of the base and wears off in a few days. Phantom Glide bonds into the base, so glide stays fast and consistent from cold powder to spring slush.
No More Wax Days
Phantom Glide replaces scraping, ironing, and shop visits with a quick base cleaning using the Phantom Glide Base Care Kit. The formula is made without PFAS.
Mounted And Ready To Go
When skis, bindings, and boots are purchased together, a Gearhead Expert mounts the bindings before the order ships.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should I choose a size and boots for the Atomic Maverick J Ski w/ C5 Binding?
Choose ski length based on your child’s height, weight, ability, and terrain; if they’re between sizes and still learning, the shorter option is generally easier to control. Pair the C5 GW binding with junior alpine boots whose soles are compatible with its accepted GripWalk or alpine boot standards, with a ski technician handling the fit.What conditions suit the Atomic Maverick J best?
The Maverick J is aimed at beginner-to-intermediate kids skiing groomed, all-mountain resort terrain across ordinary snow conditions. Its forgiving flex and turn-friendly design suit learning and progressing on maintained trails better than deep powder or technical off-piste skiing.How does the Atomic Maverick J compare with other junior all-mountain skis?
It is wider than Atomic’s Maverick J 100–120 series, while All Mountain Rocker and Bend-X technology help young, lighter skiers initiate turns and flex the ski. That combination suits developing skiers looking for approachable performance on groomed terrain.What setup does the Atomic Maverick J package need before skiing?
The included C5 GW bindings need professional mounting and adjustment for the child’s boots and release settings; a ski technician can also assess boot-sole compatibility. Ski poles are not included, so choose junior poles that suit the child’s height.How should I care for the Atomic Maverick J skis and C5 bindings?
Dry the skis, edges, and bindings after each day to help limit rust and corrosion, then store them indoors in a cool, dry place. Periodic base waxing and edge maintenance help keep them ready for resort use.
