Pomoca Skin Parts

I broke the plastic clip that accepts the tip clip wire part the other day. Since I have the pro s-glide from a few years ago, they are sewn on. I was thinking of cutting the skin back a few centimeters to remove the broken housing. It doesn't look like you guys sell an entirely new tip clip assembly though. Hoping I'm wrong about that? Thanks!

We have the tip labeled as "Click Lock" in both 85mm and 95mm options! Instead of cutting the skin material, you can slice the threads by running a razor between the plastic and the skin material. The new tip attaches by sandwiching the skin material between a thin metal plate and the plastic tip, then joining with a few screws.

Answer this question:

Hello,
I would like to trim and attach Chugach 181 Dynafit skins to Black Crows Navis Freebird 179.
I think tail hook will work. What kind of kit would you recommend for tips to replace Dynafit rubber knob attachment?
Thank you much

Vadim, If you use the fixed tail on that skin, you will need a stretch tip to put on your ski. Like the rubber top fix here Contour. To use that you would need enough skin to fold over the new tip.

Answer this question:

Do you have the Pomoca Click lock tip attachments, but in the 75mm size?

David, 85mm is the smallest size. You can get smaller buckles here - Contour.

Answer this question:

Any chance you'll be getting more twin-tip tail hooks in? I need some for my new skis and would prefer to order from you.

Hey Andy, we have more twin tip tail hooks on the way! Shoot us an email at help@skimo.co and we can reserve you a set!

Answer this question:

Will you be getting the twin tip tail locks in anytime soon? I am planning to get some new skins for my Icelantic Nomads and I am betting I will need them.

Roy, We will try to get some on our next order. I have rounded tail skis and they stay pretty good, but easily kicked loose.

Answer this question:

I'm looking for the click lock stretcher (for tip notches) that fits into pomoca click lock tips. Do you guys have such a thing? I only see it on euro sites. If not - the dynafit one looks awfully similar, will those fit in the pomoca click locks?

Scott,

We have skin tips from Dynafit that sure look similar. Hopefully that is what you are looking for!

Answer this question:

Hi Skimo,

What is the length of the narrow section (the section that extends beyond the tail-end of the skin) of the Pomoca Back Fix Tail?

Thank you!

Hi Nik, the total length of the tail is 22cm, but there's only about 9.5cm of effective adjustment between the first and last notch, or 12.5cm total additional length if using the last notch. (Note that this is *shorter* than the tail clips spec'ed on an OEM Pomoca skin).

Here's a photo of the tail clip sold individually:

Answer this question:

Hi Skimo - I’m afraid I’m in denial...is it true that I cannot buy a white replacement buckle for my Pomoca Tipon skins purchased just last year? That the best option is to convert to a BD tail, involving cutting the white tail off and installing the BD assembly with rivets? Hard to comprehend Pomoca not providing a repair kit for such a flimsy buckle, the only downside to an otherwise terrific product...hoping I am wrong!

Thank you for your advice,
Doug

Hi Doug, Pomoca provides "Back Fix Tail Clips", a kit usually found here. Unfortunately we are out of stock at the moment. For what it's worth, we typically only see those broken when 1) jamming ski tails into ice/rock, or 2) over-tensioning the tail straps (tail straps aren't meant to hold skins on, but rather to prevent the skin from peeling).

Thank you for the quick reply, JBO. That SKIMO IS out of stock on these clips, in addition to a recent Jan '19 TGR post on broken plastic tail clips, combined with my own experience tells me this is a common failing point of the product.

Mine broke also--first year. I've been wrapping the tail of the skin with electrical tape to hold it on. I don't jam my skis in the snow with the skins on, and I doubt my hands are strong enough to over-stretch the skin.

FYI, Pomoca updated the plastic tail clips for 2019/20 to be a little stronger, and we now have replacements available.

Answer this question:

Hello, I have a set of Pomoca Climb Pro S Glide with braided wire tip holder. The braided wire is fraying and about to break. I'd like to convert to the sturdy metal buckles. I'm not sure which size I need. The current buckle is about 2.25" (57mm) wide, and the skin and ski tip are just over 5" (127mm) wide. Would i need both a set of the tips and the buckles? Are the sizes I need in stock? Also, do you have the re-glue in stock?

Brian, The Click Lock includes all you need. 95 should work with a normal ski tip, if it is really blunt shaped, go with the 105.

Hi Brian, that glue is listed as Adhesive Tube in the drop list. The Click Lock kits have the skin attachment and buckles.

Answer this question:

What would be the best tool for installing the back fix tail clips? If it is a rivet gun, what gun specifically?

Thank you.

Hi Kory, the kit comes with hammer rivets which just get smashed together with...you guessed it...a hammer! Helps to have a hole punch though to get the rivets together through the skin.

Answer this question:

I want to build skins for a Voile Hyper Vector ski 127-94-111 mm profile in 171cm length. I'm thinking with Fat Back tip attachment and Back Fix Tail clips I can get away with 160 cm material (Pomoco Climb Pro S-Glide) per ski. I also assume that I can add the Twin-tip tail hook sometime in the future. Please Advise. And, Thanks!

Hey Jesse! It's totally possible that would work, although it would be a huge bummer to only order 160cm and fall short. I'd say spend the extra dollar or two and order at least 165cm to give yourself some wiggle room. We build skins all day long but we are only human and still mess up occasionally (not an excuse, but definitely a reality), so it's nice to have a bit of room for error if you install the tip and tail backwards or botch the riveting, etc.

Answer this question:

I broke a tail clip. I don't need the straps and rivets offered with the back fix tail clip kit. How do I order just the clip or three?

Hey Denis, unfortunately those clips aren't available as a standalone aftermarket part for the time being. The Black Diamond tail kits have spare parts all over the place and are generally readily available though but would require a modification to your existing skin.

Answer this question:

hi. i am attempting to modify some skins to fit some ski trab volare skis. it looks like the pomoca fat lock tip will nest between the bumpers on the volare tips. will they ? this would e a great solution becahse then the skins would still fit the original skiis. thanks, steve

Hi Steve, your best bet is to get a Ski Trab tip kit which is designed for those skis. Please note there were two versions of that ski with different attachment systems. You probably need the Attivo kit but possibly an older one (feel free to send us a photo of your ski to be sure).

Answer this question:

Do you have tubes of Pomoca glue in stock? I don't see them listed.

Hi Kevin,

We currently do not have any tubes of glue in stock. We're ordering some shorty- so be sure to check back in the next week or so.

Answer this question:

can i use some of my old BD Gold Label glue on my Dynafit Speedskins?

Hi Mike, nothing is stopping you, but the Pomoca glue is more chemically similar to what's on there.

Answer this question:

Do you have the Pomoca twin tip tail hooks in stock?

Hey Dan! Unfortunately not at the moment and we possibly won't see any more the rest of the season. Let me know if you'd like us to get one for you and we can send it your way!

Hi Dan, we just got some more twin tip tails in!

Answer this question:

Any idea when you'll have the tip buckle holders in stock?
Thanks
Chris

Hey Chris, should be within a few weeks! Would you like me to sign you up to our notification list? It'll let you know when the tip buckle holders arrive.

Answer this question:

Do the pomoca z-hooks work with the holes in tip of Fischer hannibal and transalp skis?

Hi David, they sure do!

Answer this question:

I have DPS wailer 99mm (125mm the tip) 176 cm. What size of the skins should I get M or L and if the tip attachment from 140 skins is not too wide ?
Thanks

Hi Remek, the Ms fit well on that ski. There are a couple tip buckles in the box with different sizes so you should be set.

Answer this question:

Hi, I have cross country skis 72 mm wide. I'm wondering if the POMOCA 66 tips could fit on it? Thank you in advance.

Marie-Eve

HI Marie-Eve, You need to know the tip size. Nordic skis have a real long tip so i would measure the tip of your ski from the tip, when you hit 66mm that is where the tip loop would sit. If that spot is down near the contact point of the ski and snow it probably wont work.

There is 30mm from the 66mm wide part to the contact point. Is it long enough ? If not, could you suggest me an other kind of skin attachments with smaller loop ?

Marie-Eve, I dont think thats quite long enough. Unfortunately I dont have anything smaller than that size.
