Indy 4.5 FDT Jr Skis give kids a lightweight, forgiving platform to build skills with confidence

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Indy 4.5 is perfect for little learners—it’s light, easy to turn, and forgiving enough to keep skiing fun. The rocker profile makes initiating turns smooth, and the included bindings mean parents get a complete setup that grows with their kid."

Who It’s For

Beginner Kids Learning to Ski:

Made for first-timers and progressing youth skiers who need a forgiving platform. Perfect for kids moving past rentals and starting to link turns, control speed, and explore more terrain with independence.

What It’s For

Resort Groomers and Early Progression:

The Indy 4.5 Jr thrives on mellow groomers and beginner slopes, with a Catch-Free Rocker profile that makes turn initiation intuitive and camber underfoot for stability. It’s an approachable, all-mountain entry ski that helps kids learn faster.

Why We Like It

Light, Forgiving, and Ready-to-Go:

We like how this ski pairs a composite core with cap construction to keep things lightweight, durable, and forgiving. The Catch-Free Rocker profile keeps edges from catching while kids are learning, and the included FDT 4.5 bindings adjust easily to growing boots, making this a setup that’s both kid- and parent-friendly.

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.
