Atomic’s Redster J4 is a piste ski that has the spirit of a race model without the tricky handling or price tag. It’s ideal for younger skiers who now have good technique but maybe don’t have the weight or power to drive a stiff ski. It has the construction of an adult model, with a Light Woodcore and Dura Cap Sidewalls, just no metal layers or reinforcement. This means it has precise handling and good energy to make the most of the piste focused shape, for quick turns and lively performance.
Terrain Type & Ability Level
Terrain Type
Very much aimed at pistes thanks to its shape and width, but we can be sure that what it is designed for and what it does are very different. You could put a kid on concrete block skis and they’d still find some bumps to jump off and tracks to explore, and the Redster J4 will definitely encourage progression and adventure.
Skier Type
Piste skiers that are now looking for more performance from a ski without having to go to something too stiff. The Light Woodcore and Dura Cap Sidewall construction ensure lively response and precision.
Overview
Shape
The narrow waist means quick turns and fast edge-to-edge response. A short radius helps with carving; the slim tail ensures the ski doesn’t hook-up and feel like the tail is dictating the end of the turn, the skier can easily choose between carving and sliding.
Rocker
Active Camber uses no rocker, this increases effective edge contact for better edge grip on icy slopes and stability.
Core
A mix of Light Woodcore and Densolite. A poplar wood optimises the ski’s weight without sacrificing any shock absorption or stability. The Densolite helps dampen vibrations.
Construction
The Dura Cap Sidewall uses sidewall from base to top sheet, with a rounded shape at the top for increased durability
Key Features
Structured Topsheet
A structured topsheet massively increases durability and gives a high-quality finish.
