Pomoca Free Explore Climbing Skins are a no-nonsense choice for freeride and touring skiers who want reliability over gram counting. Built with 100% nylon plush, they deliver strong, confidence-inspiring grip on steep, firm, or poorly set skin tracks, with enough glide to keep long approaches reasonable. The feel is predictable and secure, especially when conditions get slick or refrozen. Pomoca rates them at 54 g/cm² for grip and 294 kcal/h for glide, with a weight of about 238 g per skin (120 mm x 180 cm), placing them squarely in the durable, everyday-touring category. Reviews consistently point to their long lifespan and trustworthy hold compared to lighter mixed-mohair options. This generation brings real upgrades over the previous version: the Safer Skin Light membrane cuts roughly 12% of the weight (about 60–75 g per pair) while staying waterproof, Ever Dry 3.0 adds a PFC-free anti-glopping treatment, and the updated metal Click Lock tip with four rivets improves durability and compatibility with modern ski shapes. Free Explore skins are ideal for skiers who tour regularly, want easy setup with the Ready2Climb system, and value grip, durability, and fuss-free performance over chasing the lightest setup. For Pomoca, when in doubt size up.
