Atomic 2024 REDSTER S9 GEN S Hard Ski + Shift RC Skate Binding

Atomic Redster S9 Gen S is a race ski that’s fundamentally changing the game – with a whole package of innovation called Redster Gen S technology that’s faster than ever: the Speedline sidecut is wider in tip and tail, making the ski arc forwards in each stride rather than fading away. Speedscale is the unique Gen S ski geometry that means our skis can be shorter – boosting precision and agility – without losing pace (this year we’ve added an even shorter S9 Gen S for smaller and lighter skiers). While the Racewall sidewall generates an even closer connection between ski edge and snow. This pro racing model also includes a Race Carbon Construction with a Nomex Featherlight Race Core, a bonded plate and binding system for powerful transmission, and a BI6000 base with WC grinding.

PROLINK SHIFT RACE SKATE BINDING
Racing bindings for skate skiing need to deliver on multiple fronts: quick adaptability, control, stability and power transmission that packs a punch. The Atomic Prolink Shift Race SK does all that and more. The Shift Race Lock is under the lever, protecting it from snow and ice, and the 6-Position Adjustment means you can shift the binding with a total range of 3,75cm. The carbon-loaded material, Skate Flex and Low Boot-Binding Interface are all designed to make sure you can fully put the power down, with all your energy flowing into the snow, while the Prolink Shift Plate is bonded to the ski for even greater performance and power transmission. Like all Prolink bindings, it’s a 2-rail binding compatible with all 2-rail boots on the market including NNN® and Turnamic®.

Nordic Ski Size Guide/ Info

Your height and weight are both important factors when selecting the correct nordic ski for you. To find the best ski you should begin by determining the height of the ski you should be skiing on. With this information, you will have multiple skis to choose from. Using the chart below, you should choose the ski that best suits your weight at the correct height. 

Ideal Height

Classic Skis:  The ideal classic ski will be 10-30 cm above the skier's height.

Skate Skis: An ideal skate ski can range from equivalent height to the skier to 15 cm taller.

Why you may want a ski on the short side for your height:

• You are a newer, less experienced skier
• You want to be able to easily maneuver your skis and turn quickly

Why you might want a ski to be on the long side for your height:

• You are a more advanced skier
• You want your skis to be faster and do not need extra maneuverability

Race Skis

We recommend that all race skis be purchased directly through our expert nordic staff to ensure correct stiffness in the ski.

Junior Skis

Many of the same rules apply to junior skis as they do adult skis. The main difference when sizing junior skis is that they are going to be shorter than adult skis, when compared to the skier.

Classic Skis: Between 5-20 cm taller than the skier.

Skate Skis: Between 10 cm shorter than the skier and 10 cm taller.
