Black Diamond Ascension Nylon Climbing Skins - Standard, Clipfix & STS

  Product Group: Climbing Skins | Product Added on October 25, 2005, Updated on January 10, 2008

Black Diamond Clipfix Climbing Skins - Click Here To Check Price & Availability Black Diamond is as far as you'll have to look to get your alpine touring ski gear. Black Diamond is based out of Salt Lake City, Utah, barely a 20-minute drive to the Cottonwood Canyons. They test their equipment in our backyard so we know it will work great.

The BD Ascension skins have set the standard for climbing skins. The skins are unchanged for 2008. They still come with a reversible double-bar loop system so they will fit on the fattest of the fat touring skis. Black Diamond Ascension skins have a glue-free strip down the middle to make frozen removals way easier. Sizes range from 70mm to 130mm, in 10mm increments. The Standard skins do not have a tail attachment system, eliminating weight and drag. The Clipfix skins use a metal clip to attach to the tails. The STS attachment system will securely attach to any tail, including twin-tips.

Suggested Retail Price: $115 - $175 Depending on Style and Width
