Voile Split Decision Tractor Skins

Voile Split Decision Tractor Skins description

The Voile Tractor Skins are splitboard-specific climbing skins designed to get you into the backcountry. The Voile Tractor Skins' bomber riveted stainless steel tip-loops take the abuse of ascending and ensure they stay securely on your board. Voile used the most tenacious glue and super grippy hydrophobic nylon mohair to keep you ascending into thin air. These extra-wide climbing skins come complete with a nylon bag and trim tool to make sure they fit any splitboard.

Bottom Line: Gitty-up. The incredible grip, slide, and durability of the Voile Tractor Skins will have your skier buddies bribing you to break trail.

System was fit well for split board. A little trimming and your ready to go. Could have another attachment method at the rear, but all in all product works well.

This is only my second pair of skins, so I'm hardly an expert. And, since both pairs are Tractor Skins, I've nothing to compare them to. However, and it's a big however, it is worth noting that there appears to a substantial difference the two, otherwise almost-identical, sets of skins: Grippiness (Sorry. As a backcountry knuckle dragger, my vocabulary is embarrassingly void of ski-centric technological terminology). In short, these new skins appear to grip MUCH better than the old onesold" being a relative term, since the old ones have been used maybe a dozen times, and most of those have been in brand-spanking-new Wasatch backcountry powder. So, anyway, I'm not sure if this "review" makes much of a difference, except to the two or three other split-boarders out there (if there are indeed any other split boarders out there). Since we already have skins and probably can't afford new onesand if we can, we're probably on the verge of divorce and one more "discretionary" (toy) purchase will be that last strawwe probably won't be purchasing anything new, anytime soon, anyhow. But I digress. Seriously, these puppies appear to have some sort of anti-gravity stick-to-it-iveness about them; because it really seems I have to make a conscious efforton anything but solid iceto use the worst form I can possibly manage (leaning WAY forward, poles willy nilly, etc.) in order to get these skins to let go. Meanwhile my poor son is extricating his twisted limbs from his split boards and the tree limbs after his last slip/slide/tumble...on my old skins. So, there you have it, albeit from a relative newcomer to the world of skinning. Two thumbs up.Jefffrom Sloppy Slushy So Cal
