With a stiff flex and a narrow last, the Atomic Redster CS 130 ski boots are a great introduction to the high-end race boot category. While still a bit less than a real-deal plug boot, the CS 130 still has a whole lot of stiffness and high-performance attributes that make it ideal for expert skiers and racers who are looking for a narrow and low-volume fit to go along with a very responsive shell. Built with polyurethane shells and cuffs, the CS 130 is smooth and consistent, but also quite burly. At 96 mm in the forefoot last and with a low instep height, these are narrow and tight-fitting boots for skiers with very narrow feet, or for those who plan on spending a lot of time at the boot shop. With 4 micro-adjustable buckles and a burly 55mm Professional Dual Strap, the Redster CS 130 is a real-deal boot with power to spare.
