Contour - climbing skins with tradition from Tyrol
The first adhesive skin was introduced to the Austrian market over 50 years ago and Contour has been producing high-quality climbing skins for touring skis at its Innsbruck site for almost 50 years and, with a few decades delay, also for splitboards. From the very beginning, the company has focused on quality and regional production, but has also always embodied a spirit of innovation. Products are constantly being reconsidered and opportunities for improvement sought. For example, the guide line was revised for the upcoming winter and the three new products guide PURE 2.0 guide MIX 2.0 and the guide PURE splitboard skin were developed.
Contour guide MIX 2.0 - versatility and durability
The new guide MIX 2.0 skins combine 65% mohair with 35% nylon and therefore offer a successful balance of durability, friction properties and glide. With a tenth less weight than the previous series, a new and more flexible backing material and lower water absorption, the skins also impress with their smaller pack size and greater robustness. The proven adhesive technology ensures a reliable hold, even after repeated skinning and skinning off. They can also be individually adjusted with the tail strap and are particularly abrasion-resistant - the guide MIX 2.0 skins are also completely PFAS-free.
