Sponsors: Equipment: Atomic (skis, boots) - per FIS official athlete biography and Atomic Canada's own official athlete page; the specific models shown there (Redster G9 Revoshock S ski, Redster TR F5 boot) are likely generic marketing tiles rather than his exact race-stock gear, as of 2026.

Skis

Atomic Redster G9 Revoshock S + I 12 GW

Read's ski confirmed directly on Atomic Canada's own official athlete page ('Jeffrey Read's Gear'), which pictures the Redster G9 Revoshock S + I 12 GW - reuses the same product already logged (with the same caution) for Florian Schieder and Blaise Giezendanner. This GS-oriented consumer model is likely Atomic's generic marketing tile for Read's page rather than his exact FIS DH/SG race-stock ski.
