The Pomoca Climb 2.0 formula focuses on savings of both the weight and cash varieties. Pomoca uses a short nap on its Safer Skin Light backing, making for an extremely lightweight and packable skin. They also shaved a few dollars off the price by skipping the S-Glide treatment, making this skin perfect for folks who like to step up the hill without sliding backward and who aren't concerned with much else. For folks concerned with glide, it depends on the grade of the climb whether the weight savings override the increase in friction. Everyone will appreciate having some bright yellow skins in their life, plus it never hurt to save a few bucks. Buy the Pomoca Climb 2.0 skins if you want to climb 2 the top of all the best backcountry runs with minimal cost and maximum grip.
Safer Skin Light backing formula is thin yet waterproof and tear-resistant.
Ever Dry 2.0 treatment repels water, ensuring the skin starts and finishes light.
Click Lock tip system lets you swap the metal brackets to fit different tip shapes.
Kits include a skin bag and amazingly easy-to-use edge trimmer.
Simple adjustable tail clips lock into slots on a sturdy elastic strap.
Universal Kits - 185cm of material with tails attached; cut to ski length, attach the 110mm wide tip buckles, and trim.
Update 2020/21: The Climb 2.0 skins now have redesigned Click Lock tip attachments and tail hooks that enhance durability. The skins have the same climbing prowess and amazing glue while coming packaged in a cool new zippered case.
Update 2024/25: Pomoca is gradually phasing these skins out in favor of new tip and tail hardware on the renamed Tour Explore skins.
Hi - I have the 172cm Blizzard Sheeva 9 Women's ski measuring Tip - 124.5mm, Waist - 92mm, Tail 114.5mm. Which size of the Pomoca Climb 2.0 Skins do you recommend?
Hey Lea, you'll want the 120 mm x 165 -180cm size.

For blizzard zeroG 95s, 178 cm length, the choice seems to be a fair bit of tail base exposed under the strap with the 165 - 180 size; or most of the tail base covered with skin with the 175 - 190 size. What do you recommend of these two options.
Hi Alec, you explained it well. Coverage down to the end of the tail isn't critical as most grip comes from under and just behind your feet. I think less is more when it comes to skins, as less material means more glide and more packability. I'd go short. Note we also have the precut skins for that ski if you want to use the custom tip attachment (2019/20 and later skis only) with similar material from Pomoca.

Which length would you recommend for a set of DPS Wailer 112. Length 178. Think I could get away with the 165-180? The price is nice.
The best option for full edge to edge coverage will be the 140mm wide skins. They have tip loops and fixed tail clips so go for the size that corresponds with the length of your skis (ex. if your skis are 185cm, go with the 140mm 175mm-190mm option). Not to make this too complicated, but there is also the option to go with the 120mm wide skins, which will help increase glide by leaving some base exposed near the tip of the ski. If the goal is maximum climbing ability, go with the 140mm, if a bit more glide appeals to you, go with the 120mm. Have fun out there!

Hi guys and gals,
The glue on these skins only lasted a few months for my husband. Any recommendations on re-glue options? Thanks!
Hi Ilana, that's strange, the Pomoca glue only seems to have issues if exposed to high temps or excess ultraviolet light. I can see you ordered the Tipon skins, is that the flavor we're talking about? Those don't use glue.
Hi! No problem with tipon, I absolutely love those. These are the climb 2.0. Never had them long enough to expose to high temps or UV. They failed on the second day out. Now just trying to salvage them with a re-glue.
I think I have the rebrand from Faction. The glue is already degraded and sticking to my bases. Is the S glide pro the next lightest. More importantly is the glue the same? I’ve never had a glue problem w pomoca. Seems like some of their recent skins have a different hybrid glue. Whatcha gat for me! Thanks guys Teague
Hi Teague! The Pomoca branded skins use a special North American glue formula. Most re-brands (esp. euro ski companies) do not. As always, avoid excess heat and sunlight on the glue!

Would a 100mm width skin be adequate for a pair of rossignol seek 7 176cm that are 122-86-108?
Hi Chris, that is adequate in my opinion. It will be essentially full coverage in the tail.

I have Kastle TX82s that are 180cm long (119/82/107) what would be best size? Do the tails come pre-installed on these skins and length is adjusted by cutting the tip?
Luckily, these skins come with tips and tails already attached! The 15 cm of length adjustment comes from positioning the tail clip along the tail, all you need to do is trim the sides to your skis!

Hi my ski dimensions are 138-100-120. My ski length is 165cm. Will I be able to buy larger and trim down? My suggested size on the pomoca website is 130mm small, but this is not available.
Thanks! Riley

My ski is an Icelantic Oracle 100. It's got a bit of rocker in the tip.
