You want to go up the mountain with your splitboard? These skins from Contour sweeten your ascent! The Hybrid Splitboard Climbing Skins are suitable for all splitboards up to 180 cm in length. The skins come as a cutting set including cutter, punch, cleaning cloths and pack bag with microfiber insert for cleaning and drying the base before the skinning.
The special feature of the skins from Contour is the hybrid 2-layer adhesive: the first adhesive technology for climbing skins that is made up of two different layers. The adhesive layer reliably holds the skin to the ski base, can be removed effortlessly, leaves no residue and works excellently even at low temperatures and repeated skinning. A second layer of adhesive creates the bond between the back of the skin and the adhesive layer. Easily reactivate the adhesive power by cleaning the adhesive surface.
Tip: The Contour Hybrid Cleaning Spray (item number 79805001) helps with dirt such as wax residue.
