If you have skis wider than 115 underfoot, consider the split replica brand watches skins, which consist of two narrower strips of skin, them lighter. Whats good about the mohair is its lighter weight than nylon and it packs down quite a bit smaller. They fit in your jacket pocket. Mohair is really good in that it has a natural oil that has its own water repellency. They also glide really well, and the hollow-core fiber isnt as susceptible to getting rigid in cold temperatures.Nylon climbs steep slopes a touch better, so go with those when youre climbing steeper stuff on day tours. The mohair blend is the best of all worlds.
It climbs really close to nylon but is lighter and glides better. Its also a little more durable than pure mohair.2. Use Glop Stopper Waxwith the nylon skins in replica Tag Heuer watch wet, humid spring conditions to prevent the wet snow from sticking. Theres mixed debate on whether you need it on mohair, which has a denser weave of fiber and doesnt glop up as badly.3. Dry them well and keep them clean. I usually just peel the whole skin open and hang it up on a closet door so that both sides dry. The glue side gets saturated with water as well, so its good to open them all up.Be careful not to get them too dirty. Keeping the glue clean is probably one of the biggest maintenaince things. Youre just taking away the stickiness with all the dog fur and dirt.4.
Re-waterproof them. Skins are DWR-coated, and DWR is activated with heat. One thing you can do if your skins are losing their water repellency is to replica Bell & Ross watch heat them up. Just run a really cool iron over them, keeping the iron moving quickly so you dont melt them. Keep the iron away from the glue side. Just one pass-over quickly can help reactivate the DWR.5. Store them properly over the summer. I dont use skin savers while skiing, but I may put one in there to make it easier to pull them apart in the fall. Over that long of a time, the glue has a tendency to build up the bond and stick. The skin savers help preserve the glue. Also, keep them out of sunlight and in a dry place.--Kate Siber
