What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I’ve put a few kids on the Zero Jr and they pick it up right away. It’s forgiving enough to let them make mistakes, but it still holds an edge when they’re learning turns. The true twin shape makes it fun for switch riding, and I know the construction will last through more than one season of growth."Who It’s ForBeginner to Intermediate Kids:The Zero Jr is made for groms stepping into snowboarding for the first time or moving past rentals. It gives them an easy, confidence-boosting ride that encourages progression, with enough pop and control to keep up as skills improve. What It’s ForAll-Mountain Riding and Learning Progression:From first runs on green slopes to mellow all-mountain laps, the Zero Jr shines on groomers, side hits, and even small park laps. Its twin shape and versatile rocker-camber profile support both skill development and playful exploration across the mountain. Why We Like ItForgiveness, Durability, and Fun Combined:We like how the Zero Jr balances stability with a mellow flex so kids stay in control without feeling punished. The aspen wood core and bi-axial glass keep it light and lively, while the Slim Walls and extra-strong edges make it a board that can handle inevitable knocks and keep riding.
