The Redster S9 FIS W 157 is a top-tier women’s slalom race ski designed for elite-level performance in FIS and high-level competition. It delivers quick transitions and unwavering edge hold for the most demanding race environments.

Why we like it:

We like how confidently it holds a line through deep ruts while still delivering a lively, energetic feel from turn to turn.

Who it's for:

Female racers and lighter athletes competing in slalom who need a responsive, high-performance slalom race ski.

Highlights:

The Ultra Power Woodcore provides a stable yet energetic platform that responds instantly when pressured, helping maintain consistent, quick rhythm. Full sidewall construction ensures precise steering and efficient power transfer, which becomes especially noticeable and critical on icy courses. The Ultra TI Powered laminate reinforces the ski with added damping and torsional strength, allowing it to track cleanly even when conditions get rough. A full camber profile keeps the entire edge engaged, producing reliable grip and consistent acceleration between gates.

Things to consider:

This ski requires an aggressive stance and consistent input, and it can feel unforgiving if skied passively. It's narrowly focused on slalom performance and does not adapt well to varied terrain.

Fit & sizing considerations:

If unsure about sizing, confirm with your coach that this size and construction are appropriate for your racing needs.
