Black Diamond GlideLite Nylon STS Skins

 Brand : Black Diamond
Item : BLD0794
Black Diamond Ascension GlideLite Nylon STS Skins cut weight and bulk from your backcountry load. Skinnier than a regular skin, the GlideLite has a Tractor-Print base which allows them to be folded even smaller, so you can easily stash them in your pocket at the end of a climb. The STS attachment system fits any tails out there, including twin-tips, and the reversible double-bar tip can be attached to a much wider variety of skis than ever before. The GlideLite Nylon STS Skins need to be on your skis or in your pocket for your next lightweight backcountry tour.

Black Diamond GlideLite Nylon STS Skins



A must purchase for twin tip tourers
These skins are must if you own twin tip skis and you want to tour on them. They climb like mountain goats and glide with the best of skins. A must purchase for twin tip tourers.


Pretty good value
Awesome grip but average glide, these trendy looking skins are good value for money. Easily on and off - I think I save about 3 minutes in transition time - thanks to the BD design sticky side. Awesome attack angle to the slope - you can go straight up. The fasteners work well and don't fall off when stressed. The durability jury is out, however, as they tear and lose fur pretty quickly. Hard to find a skin with better grip.


Great skins!!
I have been using my Glidelight Skins for a couple weeks now and I just love them. They are light, easy to fit to skis, never come off, easy to put on and take off...and the blue prints make everything better! A great buy that I recommend!


glidelite skins
These skins are really great! Impressed with Black Diamond this time, they seem to be making products that fail. Not these skins, the tail system makes them really snug, and they grip and glide really well. I think better than purple skins.


Black Diamond Skins
I purchased the skins for my son who works at Dodge Ridge Ski Resort in California. After the resort closed there was plenty of backcountry skiing left so he wanted to join the fun. Being in a low paying job he, of course, hit up the old man. He is very pleased with the skins. "No worries" I believe was his response to my request. I was also extremely pleased by the help I received from the tech support staff in making up my mind on which skins to purchase.
