Some skis are getting better, others are revolutionizing everything we know. The Atomic Redster S9 Gen S definitely belongs to the second category!
After many years of development work, this new skate racing ski comes on the snow - with a highly innovative package of features called Redster Gen S technology, a trailblazer for top speeds on the cross-country ski trail.
Speedline is a groundbreaking sidecut construction: more width at the tip and tail of the ski enables more forward thrust with every push without breaking and thus longer strides with more stability and efficiency.
In addition, you no longer need different ski lengths, because a speed scale length (183cm) enables optimal speed for all skiers, regardless of body size.
The sidewall innovation, Racewall, ensures even better contact between the edge of the ski and the snow. The result: even more direct power transmission, which is further optimized by a binding system with a bonded binding plate.

Atomic is introducing an all-new cross-country skate ski for the 2021/2022 season: the Redster S9 Gen S. In the process, Atomic is totally reimagining ski construction and design for the skate discipline – improving handling, and increasing power through the kick for a longer and more efficient glide. To compliment this new construction, Atomic is also introducing the new adjustable Prolink Shift-In binding. This binding saves weight and allows skiers to move their position forwards for more grip or backwards for more glide – using a Shift-In button integrated into an ergonomic, easy-to-use lever. The Prolink Shift-In binding plate is bonded with the ski, which will provide increased control and direct power transfer.
THE SKI
With the Redster S9 Gen S, Atomic upends the traditional approach to skate-ski creation – with a radical departure in terms of both shape and length. A deeper sidecut with a wider tip and tail, called Speedline, provides more power to the kick and maximum stride efficiency. A completely reengineered sidewall construction, Racewall, increases energy transfer for more power transmission and enhanced stability.
And with these construction changes, the Redster S9 Gen S comes in only one length, 183 cm – known as Speedscale. This single shorter length improves agility and maneuverability for skiers of all heights and
skills. Gone are the days of multiple skis in different lengths. One size fits all is now a literal reality in the world of skate skiing.
THE BINDING
Ski profile and construction aren’t the only innovations included with the Redster S9 Gen S. The Prolink Shift-In binding system is also new this year. This integrated system allows skiers to adjust their position while still in the binding. Skiers can test up to six positions during training sessions, allowing them to hone what works best for them in different conditions and terrains. In essence, the Prolink Shift-In provides every skier the ability to find and lock-in a custom position – forwards for more grip, backwards for more glide – without ever taking the ski off. Meanwhile, the fully bonded construction aims to create the most efficient power transfer possible, eliminating any energy loss between binding and ski. In addition to this Prolink Shift-in SK binding for skate skiing, the range also features a Prolink Shift-in CL binding for classic.
