Voile Hyper Glide Skins
Voile has gotten serious about their climbing skin performance. By teaming up with industry-leading Pomoca, Voile is taking advantage of the best technology available. The Hyper Glide skins are a 65% mohair 35% nylon mix that provide the best balance between claw-like uphill grip, and energy-saving silky glide. Ever Dry hydrophobic treatment prevents the fibers from absorbing water, preventing weight-gain and eliminating the need for daily anti-ice treatments. The Safer Skin Light membrane prevents moisture-transfer through the skin which douches the glue. Long lasting glue performance means worry-free skinning, lap after lap. In addition to the moisture barrier, the Safer Skin Light membrane allows the skin to be made thinner and more packable, reducing bulk on your feet and in your jacket or pack. Get serious about your skins like Voile and get a set of Hyper Glides to feel the difference.
- Hardened and anodized aluminum tip attachment won’t fail you in ultra-cold temperatures where plastic tips may crack.
- Stainless steel tip loops will be forgiving if your technique gets sloppy late in the day.
- Ever Dry hydrophobic treatment repels moisture saturation to prevent glopping and water-weight gain.
- Safer Skin Light waterproof membrane reduces weight while keeping the glue effective.
- Elastic tail-strap with universal clip has notches to help prevent clip-slide.
- Kits include the amazing Pomoca trim tool.
Update 2023/24: Voile is now using their venerable ski strap as the tail strap and a new tail hook. Otherwise, the skin remains as reliable and durable as ever.

I have the Rossignol XP120 Nordic skis 170 length. The sidecut is 120 - 90 - 105. Which skins would fit the best? I was told they need a D ring for the tip.
12/29/2025
Bill, The 100mm x 165-180cm would work well. The Tip bale on it should work fine with that ski. Slips over the tip, like any other ski.

What length and width Voile skins do you recommend for a pair of 164mm Zero G 105s? (117 Tip x 103 Waist x 131 Tail)
120 x 154+? Or should bump to the 140mm to catch the tail of the ski?

Hugh, You have your numbers backwards. The tail is 117mm wide, so the 120 x 154-170cm skin is plenty.

I have take a fair amount of time to read many of your skis, boots, bindings Q&A's and have found them top shelf helpful so pardon me if this query has recently been answered. I am spending more time touring in the late Spring and early Summer and in the past have done so with Nylon Skins. They have performed well when saturated by truly wet snow conditions during my moderately ambitious at most objectives. With new skis and said skins well utilized what's your take on using the hybrid skins in the second ski season? Have you found the 30% mohairs to work well enough or advise having all nylon?

Hi Zack,
I don't know that I've used full nylon skins ever, 70/30 mix has been plenty sufficient regarding grip and durability any time of the year. Much better glide as well! If the snow transitions from low-elevation damp snow to high-elevation cold, dry snow throughout the day, wax is very necessary. But not much of a hassle at all.

Hi,
I’m looking for skins for a pair of DPS pagodas that are 112mm x 184 cm. I’m seeing 120 x 165-180 and 120 x 185-200… so I’m a bit in between. Will either of those fit? I’m okay with a bit more exposed base if the 180’s fit. Or am I out of luck? Thanks!

Hi Matt, there is a 175-190 that would be perfect. We expect more of that size next week.

I looks like the front clip and back strap are set on size. I have 179 cm skis with 104 underfoot what size would I buy. Also does the cutting tool leave the metal edges revealed so the skin is not over the top of the edges?
10/7/2024
Hi Mark, you'd do fine with the 120mm x 165-180cm, or the 175-190cm if you want a lot of extra tail strap to grab. Can always trim the 140s down as well for max coverage. The included trim tool does offset the edges for you.

I purchased some Voile V6 in the 178 length from you guys earlier in the year. Looking to get some skins. Would you recommend the Voile Hyperglide skins for general touring? If yes what size would your recommend. If not, what other recommendations do you have?
Thanks

Hi Andrew, absolutely! These are nice Pomoca material with Voile's beefier hardware. You want the 120mm x 165-180cm for a nice balance of grip and glide.

My skis are 167cm length. Should I go with the 165-180 cm skin, or the shorter?
12/5/2022
Hi Julie, the shorter ones can be sufficient, but some folks get nervous by seeing a good amount of exposed base material. I personally like less material so there is less to stow (in your jacket, e.g.) for the downhill.
Answer this question:
Nice pair of skins! No-drama glue, incredible glide with enough grip for icy spots on the skin track, and very lightweight. Very impressed with the metal tip clips, they add a little bit of additional weight but provide a vast increase in durability especially if you're planning on using these skins as your daily drivers or are out in the middle of nowhere.

Will these Skins fit my wife 162 Rossignols? The Ski width is 132/102/122?
12/3/2022
Hi Seth, yep they'll fit in the 154-170 length. Do note that these are not pre-cut skins. They come in a specific width (100/120/140) and a tool for you to cut them to match your pair of skis. For a ski with a 102 waist, pick the width based on how much edge-to-edge coverage you want on the tips and tails. The 140 width would give you full coverage on the entire ski.

Thanks for reaching out, Elias. They sure will, with a notch or two to spare.

Haven't tried these skins yet, but I just finished cutting them. I read lots of great reviews about the cutting tool that comes with the skins, however I had a pretty frustrating experience with it. One of the razors was significantly duller than the other, and overall they did not cut well. Left lots of loose threads exposed, and a pretty jagged cut. That being said, this was my first time cutting skins. However I had higher expectations for the cutting tool. Not a huge deal, excited to try these out.
Comment on this review:
My favorite glue formula, as it's reliable (as long as you keep it *mostly* dry), sticks in the cold, but also rips off your skis super easily! I find them ever-so-slightly less grippy than the BD Glidelite, but with a better glue formula and glue durability. I like the Pomoca tail clips, which flip over the ski and keep your tails neat.

How do these compare in climbing grip and in gkide to the pomoca S Glide (which is what i currently have)
2/16/2021
Hi Ben, they are definitely comparable. The S-Glides will be a bit faster out of the box with the fancy "S" treatment. They grip well.
Answer this question:
Put these skins through the wringer this winter and they're doing great. They fold down as small as a paperback book and tuck into my jacket easily. Good climbing power, easy glide, and a light weight. The glue is only moderately tacky so I don't dislocate my shoulders, lose my temper, or topple when trying to rip the skins off the skis.

Just curious to what pomoca skin this is most similar to? And if the durability or glue is much different? Looking for a good everyday skin.
1/29/2021
Hi Shane, it's most similar to the Free Pro 1.0. Same durability and North American glue as other Pomoca skins sold in the states.
1/29/2021
You think this would be a better option then the S glide? I tour every day pretty much. Just looking for a good everyday option. I try to abide by the faster, further, funner motto
1/29/2021
Hi Shane, after break in they are fairly similar. The S-Glide is a touch faster out of the box. Don't forget about the pure mohair skins either!

Hi Keli, sadly they are tapped for the season.

The Contour skins are a solid option in that size.

What would be the best size for a pair of 164 objectives? The smallest listed is for 165-180, but will that be a good fit?
1/22/2021
Hi Steve, those will be a little long. Voile had the Superlite skins for the Objective, but those are gone as they transition to a new product. If you want to use the tip-rip system (very nice), you could grab an Atomic Hybrid skin and attach the tails, and trim. Or do a DIY skin build. Without the tip rip, any trim-to-fit kit in the right length would work.

I was looking at getting a pair of these skins for my wife's 158 cm X 88 mm skis. Is there a size that will work? Thanks.
1/22/2021
Thanks for your question, Todd. None of the options listed will work, however, check out the Contour Guide Mix for an awesome skin that will fit her ski. Typically, we base the width of the skin to closely match the tail dimension of the ski. Please reach out if you have any other questions!
