Skins deserve more attention - they decide your climb
You might obsess over ski width, flex, weight.
You might spend weeks choosing the right touring boot.
But your skin — the piece that carries you every step of the ascent is often just an afterthought.
And that’s exactly where problems begin:
- Slipping skins drain your energy
- Poor traction kills your rhythm
- Unreliable glue can ruin your day
You only notice a skin when it fails and by then, you’re already in trouble.
