Colltex Skin Parts
Skins are made of tips, tails, glue, and fur. Except the fur, these can all be replaced. Here is our current lineup of parts from Colltex, the makers of Colltex skins.
Ace Tip Attachments - Combining the security of a standard tip attachment with the speed and efficiency of a race-notch. The Ace installs like a normal tip attachment without having to adjust your tail strap. Pull on the red tab to pop the metal clip off the tip of the ski and then rip the skins from the tip without taking off your skis. Simpler and faster. Two tips included, rivets not included.
Adjustable Tip Brackets – Inner and outer metal brackets that you can hammer together to acheive the right width for your ski tips. 70+ mm.
Camlock+ Tail Kit – Two adjustable tail straps with Camlock+ clips and rivets to hold 'em on.
Camlock+ Tail Clips – Two plastic and metal clips that hold Camlock+ tail straps onto a ski. Straps not included.
Adhesive Tube – Have your magic carpets lost their magic? Not to worry. Refresh with a new layer of glue. 75ml.
Acrylic Tape – A refresher coating of the acrylic non-glue formula formerly known as Whizzz and now called Clariden.
Protective Netting – Keep your climbing skin glue fresh and clean with protective netting. Sometimes called 'cheat sheets'. Two 95cm strips fit skins up to 140mm wide.
Carry Bag – Nice bag for storage and transport of climbing skin kits. Emblazened with Colltex logo.
Skin Clips - These handy little things fix to the end of the skin to secure on your skis. The skin clips include tip loop and tip attachment fabric.

Questions & Reviews
The BD kit isn't super long, but you may be able to get it to work depending on how far you are from the tails currently.
With that caveat aside though, Five Stars for:
- Cam attaches very easily and securely to the ski tail.
- Cam then allows for nice grab when ripping.
- Length adjustment is easy indoors when warm, less so when cold in the field, but given that the tail attachment is there for backup anyway, not like you need to be removing every little bit of excess slack on subsequent laps.
Overall, a great choice if you want the extra security of a tail attachment (combined with a basic bar-style tip attachment) yet want to buy skin material from a roll.
