Dynafit Speedskin Precut Skins
Why bother trimming skins when you can get Pomoca-quality Speedskins precut for Dynafit skis? The climbing skins include a patented clamp system that works effortlessly on non-race model skis. Designed to be ripped off from the tip of the ski, the Speedskins include an easy-to-grab rubber stick that fits perfectly in Dynafit tip notches. The simple tail clips clasp securely on the flat tail notches found on all Dynafit skis. The precut Dynafit Speedskins are the easiest way to get climbing and, more importantly, skiing.
- Waterproof membrane separates the fur from the glue, preventing moisture from compromising the stickiness.
- Speed Glide finish is applied to the 70% mohair plush to reduce friction and the consequent leg burn.
- Snow Leopard Grip comes from a combination of special materials that climb well and are abrasion-resistant.
- Anti-stick compound is applied to the bottoms to help prevent hateful glomming.
- Cut to match the Blacklight, Free, Speed, Carbonio, Speedfit, SL 80, etc skis.

Questions & Reviews
You could certainly cut the tail off and use that skin. I would say that there are better options out there for actual racing. Building a custom skin for that ski would be my best recommendation! You can reach out to us through help@skimo.co if you are interested in a custom skin.
I bought the Speedskins for my Speed 90 in late 2020. Over the course of two years I started getting bits of skin residue on my bases until one day I couldn't even ski down, on a cold day (picture of peak problematic). I thoroughly removed the old glue and reapplied a fresh layer of Pomoca glue, they came out like-new but the issue slowly came back again over the course of a year. I reglued them a second time and again after a year the issue has come back, even on freshly waxed bases. No matter the temperature, they leave residue on my hands anytime I handle them and always seem particularly hard to separate. I was told by a local shop that one cannot reglue Dynafit skins, the glue they sell is not the same as the original (silicone mix with a surface pattern). I'm a bit skeptical about that hence my post here. I must admit there is a nonzero chance they may have lived through a heat wave once or twice before I knew how damaging that can be.
Question 1: Is this common with Dynafit/Pomoca skins? If so, anything in particular that triggers the issue? I do everything by the book since regluing. Maybe I shouldn't store them glue-to-glue? I've been told that can break down the glue when separating reglued skins (and I witness that).
Question 2: Can they be saved? The hair side still has many miles left. Perhaps a different glue?
Question 3: Looking at my next pair, which model would match the closest in the Pomoca lineup? They seem to outgrip and outglide all my ski partners' skins, but if there's an equivalent model from a different brand I would consider it, especially if the glue is easier to deal with.
Thanks in advance.
Answer 1: The Dynafit branded skins use the European formula Pomoca Glue, which is for warmer climates. In our experience Pomoca skins in general have been more sensitive to heat causing the glue to leave glue on ski. Storing them glue to glue isn't known to cause an issue.
Answer 2: My best guess as to why you've still been having issues after regluing would be that not all of the old glue was removed prior to regluing. If you are down for the effort I would reglue using a heat gun and metal scraper to remove 100% of the glue before regluing with Contour brand glue.
Answer 3: The contour guide mix skin will be closest to Pomoca, with a 70/30 nylon mohair blend, and the glue is less prone to gooing.
I am pretty sure I removed 99% of the old glue each time with a scraper. I could feel the backing not stick to my fingers.
But your comment about the different formulas might be the key to this years-long puzzle! I do live in a warmer climate, but the tubes I bought were probably the North American version. And thinking about it, they do seem to work quite well when it's really cold, and only then! And that would explain why glue problems weren't as severe on the original glue.
Great to know that Contour's glue is compatible to extend the life of these current skins. I will most definitely try that.
Their Guide Mix skins indeed look so identical to my Speedskins they could be a rebrand, although perhaps without the Pomoca Speed Glide finish. Thanks for the suggestion.
Alternatively, do you think the European-formula Radical 88 Speedskins could fit my 167cm Speed 90s or would the missing 1mm underfoot per side cause too much of an issue? 123-89-110 [167] vs 120-87-109 [166].
Thanks again for all the information. You guys are super helpful.
We should have more Radical 97 skins in the Fall.
For Dynafit Speedskins, the length needs to be more then close, without any length adjustment. The Ridge having a stated 1 cm shorter length, may be too long.
Unless your really want a tip-pull skin, you can go with a Pomoca trim to fit skin for similar performance.
Thanks.
They do exist but are currently out of stock across the network. We should see their return next season. You could consider a trim to fit kit. These kits include everything needed to fit the skin to your ski at home. For model recommendations and how to still take advantage of the unique tip rip, email us at help@skimo.co, and we will help you out. Thanks!
Yes, it is the Blacklight 88 skin listed above! We are out of the 172cm size at the moment, but the other sizes are available.
There is not a repair kit for it, but you can replace the rubber tips - we sell them here on our website.
And it can change. But what we have is the Speedskin are the Climb Pro skin, minus the S Glide treatment.
We don't have a precut skin for that ski, and we don't generally recommend trying to fit the Dynafit precuts to skis other than the ones that they were designed for. They have no length adjustment, so if the length is not perfect they will either be too tight to fit, or too loose to stay on well.
You will probably need a trim-to-fit skin. If you go with a Pomoca trim-to-fit option, you can swap the Dynafit rubber tip attachment on pretty easily. Email us if you want details on how to do that (help@skimo.co). Or, we could build you a skin with a race tip and a fixed tail, using Pomoca (or other) skin material, to replicate the Dynafit skins. You can also email us about this service if you're interested!
In general we don't recommend trying to match Dynafit precut skins to skis other than the ones they were intended for. They are fixed length with no adjustment, so if they do not match perfectly, they will not work - it is a tolerance down to a couple millimeters. I would recommend one of the many excellent trim-to-fit offerings that we have instead! If you want to replicate the Dynafit tip-rip, you can install Dynafit rubber tips on a Pomoca skin without too much effort. Email us if you want the details!
