- Cutting climbing skins for your touring skis can be intimidating. Learn how I do it stress-free. It's easy! I'll show you how I measure and cut my Black Diamond mohair mix skins to length. Then you'll see how to install the skin hook and tail to your ski. And finally, a step-by-step view on how to trim your climbing skins to fit perfectly to the curves of your skis.
This is a pretty mellow video. You can chill out and watch it in your garage too to get the feel.

thanks for the video !
Cant wait for the snow!
Looking to get back into skiing, informative video and extremely helpful. Now we just need a good snow year here in NM. Thanks!
Very good and detailed videos THANK YOU
Yeah, pretty cool!
Great video, thanks for posting. Do you ever melt the edges of the skins to seal them? Mine are getting a little frayed at the edges after a few uses
We have not tried that. When cutting the skins, we recommend using a brand new blade to ensure a razor-sharp cut with no tearing. If your skins are fraying, you can re-cut them narrower to remove the falling threads.
What is your opinion on the Helio Carbon 115 skis ? I see you have few Black Diamond skis....thx
I really love them for everything backcountry. Even if there is not much powder. I use Impulse 112 or 98 for inbounds skiing.
@@GOLH thank you
You keep doing things while talking about something else, and then hop in and say "btw assemble this" or do that without showing it. Bad instructional video
Lots of errors sorry bro ! 😢
