Nitro Vertical Splitboard Skins One Color, 162cm

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I took the Vertical Skins out on a mixed spring day where the snow went from chalky to heavy and wet by noon, and the Fiber Seal Technology kept them from loading up with moisture the whole time. The Smart Glue held through every skin track without once lifting at the tip, and the Speedhooks had them dialed in and ready to go in seconds at the trailhead.""The skin track is where the real work happens, and the Nitro Vertical Splitboard Skins are built for every meter of it. Whether the morning starts firm and fast or you end up pushing through heavy spring mush by midday, these skins stay light and grippy because the Fiber Seal Technology keeps moisture from working its way into the construction. That means you spend less energy hauling a waterlogged skin up the mountain and more energy saving it for the descent. The 65% mohair and 35% nylon fiber blend is the kind of combination that splitboarders obsess over for good reason. Mohair gives you that effortless, low-friction glide on the flats and rolling terrain, while the nylon adds durability and grip when the pitch steepens. The Smart Glue adhesive bonds reliably even in cold and wet conditions without the frustration of a skin that peels away mid-tour, and the Metal Speedhooks lock into the Nitro Vertical Splitboard's tip and tail mounting holes, so setup at the trailhead takes seconds, not minutes."
