Splitboard Skins Review - Mountain Weekly News

Werner Koch |

First thing is the contour hybrid Splitboard skins glue, this stuff is pretty amazing. Nice and tacky, sticks to the base of your split whether its cold or warm and seemed to have no issue with multiple laps. Leaves no residue on your ski base, or on your gloves. The coolest thing about this glue side is you can stick the skins to themselves without skin savers and they pull apart easily…like very easily. My mind was blown. No more having to use every ounce of strength to pull your skins apart. They just…pull apart, easily and smoothly.

They are right in a nice mid range, better grip than a high glide skin, better glide than a high traction skin. Unlike many other skins these cover your board tip to tail giving you a lot more surface area to work with when the skin track gets ugly.

Now to the method of attachment to the board. These are unique, not utilizing the standard clip over the nose then stretch down to the tail system. The contour hybrid Splitboard skins come with the nose clips attached via a Velcro patch, and included are the bits you need to attach the tail clips dependent on your board size.

"All in all the these Contour Skins are great skins."
