Völkl Blaze 106 Skins

Technologies and manufacturing processes

• Smart Skinclip

  The newly developed Smart Skinclip system allows the skier to decide for himself in which direction he wants to put on and take off the skin, depending on the situation. A standard snap hook at the end of the ski allows the skins to be put on and taken off from behind.

• Reduced absorption of moisture

  Reduced absorption of moisture impliziert weniger Stollenbildung. Anders als bisher brauchen unsere Felle keine Baumwollträgerschicht und die Fellhaare sind direkt auf den Kleber aufgebracht. Das Fell ist leichter und durchnässt nicht so schnell, da keine Baumwollschicht vorhanden ist, die Nässe aufsaugt. Somit stollt und vereist das Fell deutlich weniger als herkömmliche Steigfelle. Zudem trocknet das Fell nach der Tour schneller. Deshalb: Don't be afraid of tours that start in wet snow of the warmer valley areas and continue with increasing altitude in significantly colder snow! The fur absorbs smaller amounts of water and thus freezes significantly less.

• Adhesive technology

  Improved glue technology for easier handling Thanks to optimized Smart Glue technology, the skins adhere well to the base, but are also easier to remove from the ski. After transport (e.g. in the skin bag), the glued surfaces can be separated more easily. Separation nets can therefore be largely dispensed with!

• Laser cutting

  Precise laser cutting for exact width matching between skin and ski. Thanks to laser-precise cutting, the skin width fits the respective ski exactly. The cut edge is so robust that the skin frays significantly less

• BESTE KOMBINATION AUS GLEITFÄHIGKEIT & GRIP

  Our 70/30 mohair-nylon mix allows the ski to glide forward in an energy-saving manner and provides the best grip under load so that you can calmly and safely take the next step
