The Sir Francis Bacon Shorty is back this year at Line for children
Eric Pollard being better placed than anyone else to talk about his ski for Kids, says: "I can't tell you how many times I've seen kids all over the world trying to powder ski on skis that aren't wide enough or too long and thin. Bacon Shorty is no joke! It has the same technology as the ski I ride, but it's made for a kid. It can even be fitted with adult bindings. The future of our sport will ski on."
As the talented Eric Pollardsays, the Sir Francis Bacon Shorty is a real Freeride-Backcountry ski for children. With a new decoration based on that of Sir Francis Bacon, kids will be able to have the same skis as their parents and idols !
The Sir Francis Bacon Shorty is designed on the same basis and with the same technologies as the adult model but shorter and with a different distribution of flexibility. A high performance ski, very progressive for powder and freeride. One of the rare junior skis on the market that is so close to an adult model in terms of construction and behaviour.
A real success!
