Pomoca Climb Pro S-Glide Skins

We’re not sure but we think the “S” stands for “Super”. The new Pomoca Super treatment on the old reliable Climb Pro Glide skins makes them even better at sliding. The friction coefficient is now more akin to racing formulas than to similar mohair-mix skins. Good sliding technique will be rewarded with up to 20% energy savings on an average climb, a figure extrapolated from recent lab tests. The Climb Pro S-Glides are 70% mohair, 30% nylon, and 100% fast. The skins feature the manageable Pomoca glue formula and easy-to-use tip brackets and tail clips. These are likely the default skin choice for interested ski tourers.

  • Safer Skin Light membrane is waterproof, tear-resistant, and tends to hold its hairs in place.
  • Ever Dry 2.0 is a water-shedding treatment that prevents potentially heavy water soakage.
  • S-Glide concoction is applied at the end to give you a lifelong friction-reducing stride.
  • ClickLock is a tip system that allows you to swap square brackets to match your ski tips.
  • Adjustable tail clips ride up and down a thick stretchy strap that is notched for a good hold.
  • Kits come with a trimmer that is much easier to use than the letter-opener style skin trimmers.
  • Includes a skin bag for carrying your climbers and for long-term storage across seasons.
  • Skins come with tips attached (except Universal length), otherwise known as "Back Fix" in Pomoca-speak.
  • Universal Kits - 185cm of material with tails attached; cut to ski length and attach the 85mm or 95mm wide tip buckles (both included) before trimming.
  • No Tips - A Universal Kit without the tip hardware...attach race bungees or your favorite touring tips.

Update 2020/21: The S-Glide skins are now made with thinner backing material and they have redesigned Click Lock tip attachments and tail hooks that enhance durability. The skins are about 40g lighter out of the box with the same grip and amazing glide. They now come in a zippered hard case.

Question from Hannah
 
Hi there! Looking at buying the climb pro s-glide for my k2 mindbenders. They are the 116c and size 170. Was looking at the 120mm and 165-180cm. Would that be a good choice?
3/26/2024
Answer from Gabriel I
 
Hi Hannah, we generally size skin width by the tail width of the ski. Those have a 132mm tail, so the 120mm might be a bit narrow. The 140mm would offer better grip, especially on off-camber skintracks. The 165-180cm length is good for a 170cm ski.

Question from Henriette L
 
Hey, there. I have a pair of Blizzard Zero G 85 that I'd like to get these for. The skis are 167cm. What size would you recommend? I don't mind trimming them myself, if need be. Thanks!

Answer from Carlos M
 
Hi Henriette,

I would go with the 100mm width, 155-170cm length. You could also go with the 165-180cm length but then you will have very full coverage to the end of the tail, more than I'd personally want!

You will need to trim them, but the included Pomoca trim tool works well.

Answer from jbo
 
Hi Ben, I recommend the 120mm x 175-190s which will give you full coverage in the tail.

I recently bought these skins and the glue seems to be peeling and balling up. They still stick well. Is this normal / expected?

Thanks,

Hi Tim,

Not exactly normal, no, but glad to hear they're still working for you. If you bought them from us, or have the original purchase receipt, we can potentially help you with a warranty if you email us at warranty@skimo.co.

Question from Kim
 
Hi I ordered the pomoca climb pro s-glide in size 140 mm and 175-190 cm lengrh. However now that I have got them, they are only about 165 cm long (skin length) which leaves quite a lot of ski without skin in the tail of my 186 cm 106 Ripsticks.

Are 175-190 skins supposed to be only 165 cm in length? Or has something gone wrong with my order? On the cardboard that is around the storing pack it says 175-190 cm? But….???

Bedt regards, Kim
3/1/2024
Answer from jbo
 
Hi Kim, that is correct. You don't get a lot of grip out of the skin at the end of the ski, especially on skis with a lot of tail rocker that would lift the skin off the ground. That said, you can get the next length up if you prefer max coverage and having more tail strap to grab.
3/1/2024
Answer from Kim R
 
Thanks a lot for the prompt response. So you think I’ll be ok with the skins even if there is about 15-20 cm of base exposed in the tail of the ski?

The problem is I probably won’t have time to order and receive the size XL before I have to go on my touring trip….
3/1/2024
Answer from Carlos M
 
Hi Kim,

I have owned two pairs of Pomoca skins and both are the 165-180cm length, paired with 177 and 179cm skis - so near the minimum amount of skin material possible. I have never wanted the longer length. Especially since you opted for the 140mm width on a 106mm ski, you will have full coverage everywhere. I doubt you will be lacking for grip.

Thanks a lot for the Anders. I willl go with the skins in large then

Question from Wyatt
 
Would you recommend the 120mm or 140mm width size of the Pomoca Climb Pro S-Glide skin for a QST 106 174cm length with 138mm at tip and 124mm in the tail?
2/22/2024
Answer from jbo
 
Hi Wyatt, I would go with the 120s which would be plenty of grip and fold in half nicely without overhang. Go 140 if you want every last cm of grip and are OK with a bit bulkier skin in your jacket or pack.

Question from Alex
 
Hi, I'm considering these for some 2010 K2 Hardside 185s 131/98/119 skis.

Would I want the 120mm or do I need the full 140mm?

Thanks!
2/20/2024
Answer from Emmett I
 
Alex,

I'd go with the 120mm - so long as the whole tail is covered, you'll get plenty of grip.

Question from Sam
 
I was wondering what the best skin size would be for the black diamond Helio carbon 104 in 178 cm?

Thanks!
1/15/2024
Answer from Carlos M
 
Hi Sam,

I would go with the 120mm width, 165-180cm length. If you want maximum grip you could go for the 175-190cm length, which will give you a longer plush. Personally, I would rather have less plush for slightly better glide, less tail strap flopping around on top of my ski, and less skin material to stuff in my jacket.

These do glide well but durability is another thing. I started to lose traction in the middle of my second season. Went to a new pair of Climb's and the difference was night and day.

Question from Matt
 
Hello!
What width would you recommend for Kastle TX103 skis? I know Pomoca makes dedicated skins for Kastle, but they are a challenge to find!
4/17/2023
Answer from Emmett I
 
Matt,

Looks like the TX103 has a 120mm tail width, so the 120mm will work great!

Question from Joe
 
Would the 100mm 165-180 cm fit for the Atomic Backlands 86 SL 172cm?
4/12/2023
Answer from Niko M
 
Hi Joe! With a tail width of 105.5mm, you'd be right at the cusp of what I'd suggest, however, ultimately I think it'd work just fine. There will certainly be less trimming involved which is a plus! Thanks.

Question from Jeremy K
 
I plan to get these for the Dynafit Carbonio 76 skis in the 158cm length. I also plan to replace the tip connectors with the Dynafit rubber tips you guys also offer. I was wondering if this modification would affect the length sizing, and if whether you would recommend the 145-160 or 155-170cm length options. I want maximum glide, so the shorter length would be preferred so long as the tail clip would could still be adjusted to fit securely.
4/4/2023
Answer from Niko M
 
Hi Jeremy! Either skin length would work well. If done properly, the 145-160cm will still offer a secure tail clip. If you want to avoid modifying the pre-assembly, you could also build your next set of skins  off the roll with the same material in order to get exactly what you'd like! Send us an email at help@skimo.co if you have any questions about doing so. Thanks!

Great grip, great glide, poor glopping (easy to mediate with wax), terrible glue. Pair the skins with BD/Ascension glue and these would be awesome skins. During their second season the glue morphed into something else that would rather stick to my freshly waxed skis than the skin. Yes, I dry out the glue and store the skins cool after use, so I'm not sure what happened.

Reply from Cody P
 
The same thing happened to me. 4 months of skiing with proper care and the glue is coming off on my ski bases. Second pair of these that have done this in two years.

Question from Rosty
 
What size of Pomoca Glide Pro S-Climb would you recommend for DPS Wailer 112RP2 Tour1 ski 184cm (2017 version). Pomoca web site recommends 140mm. Seems huge. Thanks.
3/12/2023
Answer from jbo
 
Hi Rosty, the climbing skin makers recommend you buy a lot of climbing skin like dentists recommend you visit them twice a year. 120cm would have plenty of climbing prowess in powder and it would fold up much nicer (no tip overhang).

Question from Celine
 
Hi, need some advice! I’m looking for skins to take out in the southern BC & Washington backcountry, which usually has that heavier coastal snow. Don’t know too much about this as I’m fairly new at touring.
I ride Nordica Santa Ana 93’s.
2/6/2023
Answer from jbo
 
Hi Celine, good find! These S-Glide skins have Pomoca's waterproof membrane that works great in wetter climates. That prevents waters from seeping through and causing the glue to lose adhesion. You will want the 120mm wide skins, choosing the length towards the midpoint of the length range in the option selector.

Question from Erik
 
I have a pair if Atomic backland 107s in a 182 length(137-107-124). I am kind of torn between the 120 and the 140 version of this skin. Feels like the ideal would be 130 but can't find it anywhere. What would you recommend?
1/23/2023
Answer from jbo
 
Hi Erik, there are no 130s in these parts. 120mm would be plenty in my mind, but you can always trim down a bigger skin.

1/22/2023
Answer from jbo
 
Hi Erin, this is the skin! The 120 x 165-180 would be sufficient but go up to 140 if you want max coverage for every edge when climbing.

Question from Chuck
 
Which width will work best for Voile Hyper V8 171 cm?
1/20/2023
Answer from jbo
 
Hi Chuck, the 140s are going to be best for the V8s! For what it's worth, I cut my skins twice for that ski...put them on backwards and trimmed a second time to make them symmetric and take up less jacket space. Still climbs just fine in pow.
1/20/2023
Answer from jbo
 
Follow up, if you do a symmetric cut or like less material like me, you can get by with the 120s in the 171, they are only 120 at the tail.

Good skins but the attachment hardware is plastic and will break after a season or sooner. I would prefer metal attachments for a few extra grams.
