Colltex BC Skin Mohair are ski skins made of mohair for those who want the best glide possible , without losing a secure grip uphill. Mohair is a natural material that provides a soft, efficient ride and a fast feel on flatter sections - perfect for ski touring, mountains and long trips where you want to save energy and get better flow.
This type of skin is particularly suitable when you prioritize:
better glide on trails and over lakes
longer trips where efficiency matters
comfort and less resistance in the step
Excellent glide – mohair provides lower friction and better flow
Good uphill grip in most snow conditions
Nice and quiet walking position – more comfortable on long trips
Save energy on flat transport routes
Perfect for mountains, hiking and everyday adventures
Mohair is often the choice for ski touring enthusiasts who want:
more speed on the plate
more efficient walking and better rhythm
less “braking feel” compared to synthetic
👉 Good to know: Mohair can wear out a little faster on really hard/icy snow than some synthetic skins – but rewards you with better glide and feel.
Ski touring in the mountains and forests
Longer trips and transport distances
Easier top tours where you want a faster feel
Riders who prioritize glide over maximum grip
To get the most out of your mohair pelts:
Apply skin wax/universal wax in the direction of the hair before waxing.
Wax easily at changing temperatures (around zero).
Warm the skins under the jacket before putting them on.
Make sure the surface is clean and dry.
Press firmly all the way in.
Dry the skins after each turn (not directly on a strong heat source)
Store with a protective net or protective sock
Keep the adhesive surface clean – dirt impairs adhesion
