Features

Atomic Redster C5 is a waxable ski that blends performance and comfort to perfection.


Atomic Redster C5 is a wax ski that delivers a beautiful balance of performance and comfort – making it ideal for training days and just as good for enjoying time out in the fresh air with family and friends. Its sportiness comes from Redster technology like the light and agile racing tip and the BI5000 sintered base with world cup grinding. While the Densolite 500 core and Densolite Carbon construction makes the ski easy to compress for effortless grip. The ideal all-round Redster for keen, sporty skiers.

  • Densolite Carbon Construction — A Densolite core with carbon laminates above and below - for a kick that's dynamic but effortless.
  • Densolite 500 — Light,stable and tough: a dynamic Densolite option used in performance and training ski cores.
  • BI 5000 + Race Grinding — A sintered world cup base with race grinding, for a perfect glide in all conditions.
  • Waxable — Waxable skis need to be kick-waxed abd don't come with any waxless kick technology.
  • Flat Racing Tip (FRT) — A shorter, flatter, lighter ski tip designed for better swing balance and a smooth, fluid motion.

AI FAQs

AI generated FAQs about the Redster C5 /Prolink Shift CL

Are these skis better suited for groomed trails or going off-track through fresh snow?

These classic skis are built for groomed Nordic trails. Their design suits track skiing rather than off-track travel through untracked snow.

Can I use these skis for both classic stride and skate skiing, or are they built for one style?

These are classic cross-country skis built for classic stride skiing. They are suited to classic technique rather than skate skiing.

I mostly ski on flat, packed trails near my house — will these perform well in that setting?

These skis are made for groomed Nordic trails and use a BI5000 sintered base with race grinding for glide in all conditions. You can use them for classic skiing on flat, packed tracks, with a lightweight flat racing tip designed for smooth motion.

How do these skis handle hilly terrain where I need good grip on the uphills?

The Densolite Carbon construction is designed to compress easily for an effortless, dynamic kick and grip. You will need to apply kick wax to create that grip, since these are waxable skis without waxless kick technology.

I ski mostly on weekends for fun and fitness — are these overkill, or a good fit?

These skis are an all-round option for keen, sporty skiers, balancing performance and comfort. You can use them for training days as well as relaxed time skiing with family and friends.

Would these work well for a mixed outing where part of the trail is groomed and part is untracked?

These skis are designed for groomed Nordic trails. They suit the groomed portion of a mixed outing, not untracked travel.

Do I need to wax these skis before I can use them, or are they ready to go out of the box?

These waxable skis need kick wax before you ski them. They do not use any waxless kick technology, so you need to prepare the kick zone for grip.

Do bindings come included with these skis, or do I need to buy them separately?

A Prolink Shift CL binding is included with these skis. You receive a binding intended for classic skiing rather than needing to purchase that binding separately.

I have NNN boots — are these skis compatible, or do I need SNS-compatible bindings?

The included Prolink Shift CL binding is compatible with the NNN/Prolink/Turnamic system. You can use NNN-compatible boots with these skis; SNS compatibility is not part of the stated binding system.

Are there any accessories I'll definitely need to buy alongside these to get out on the snow?

You need kick wax to create grip on these waxable skis. The Prolink Shift CL binding is already included, and compatible boots need to use the NNN/Prolink/Turnamic system.
