CLIMBING SKINS Workbook 2015/16 - EN
SWISS MADE FORMULA POMOCA SWISS MADE For more than 80 years, the best athletes in the world as well as top guides and mountain rescuers have trusted POMOCA skins. Pomoca skins have gained global recognition over the past decade, thanks to innovations such as Safer Skin (100% waterproof), Glide (anti glopping and gliding treatment) and Race (the fastest skins ever made). Pomoca textile engineers continue to apply and advance this knowledge, resulting in further technological advances and an ever better product. In the pages that follow, you will discover the technological secrets that allow for faster gliding and better grip. Research Partner:

FORMULA POMOCA Formula POMOCA This is where the requirement profiles for the RACE, CLIMB and FREE operational ranges originated. Our research indicates that each target group requires different grip and glide characteristics. POMOCA met these requirements with a clearly structured skin development program aimed at meeting individual mountaineers requirements. POMOCA s range of colors is emblematic of these requirement profile characteristics. As a result of these efforts, POMOCA has expanded its role as a climbing skin world leader by advancing ski mountaineering innovation. Our OEM partners: La Sportiva US

AMBASSADORS Jérémie Heitz I started sking very early at the age of 2. After a long record in alpine skiing, I naturally moved to freeriding. Lucky to be born in the Swiss Alps, I have one of the most beautiful and wild playgrounds at my disposal where I have trained myself so far. Pomoca reflects the ideal partner to quickly reach the mountains that I want to ski in this alpine setting. Having used Pomoca skins for some years now to reach isolated places, I noticed that regardless of the type of snow, the skins adhere perfectly and occupy very little space in my backback. Really handy! Awards: Freeride World Tour 2014: 3 rd place Photo: Jeremy Bernard Pomoca reflects the ideal partner to quickly reach the mountains that I want to ski
Kilian Jornet 08 09 I grew up in a mountain lodge, located at 2,000 meters above sea level, in the Catalan Pyrenees, where mountains were always my playground. I was introduced to outdoor activities at a young age, and I quickly developed a passion for mountain sports along with a natural aptitude for adventure and physical challenges, which has increased with experience. My love for mountains and passion for overcoming challenges has led me to sponsor the Summits of My Life project, a series of mountain challenges all over the world. In the winter, I trust the quality of Pomoca skins because of their glide and grip when conquering a mountain summit.

What is a skin? 10 11 1. A PLUSH WITH ANGELED FIBERS... The plush offers grip and glide to the skin. These characteristics vary depending on the material used (nylon, mixed or mohair) and the way the fibers are woven (thicker or thinner, longer or shorter, more or less angled). Normally, a skin that glides more, grips less 2....SUBJECT TO VARIOUS TECHNICAL TREATMENTS... These treatments provide waterproofing for fibers, which is key to preventing snow clumps from forming. Wet fibers can freeze with a change in temperature. When the fibers freeze they attract snow which sticks to the skin, forming clumps. It also gives the colour to the skins and helps with fixing the fibers to the angle/backing, which is why it is important for durability and glide/grip. 3....WITH A LINING... The lining prevents from transferring water from skin to the adhesive and reducing its performance. A lining that is not waterproof causes damp on the adhesive and reduces its tack (stickiness). The adhesive could come away from the skin and stick to the ski. A quality lining guarantees the correct functioning of the adhesive and also increases resistance to the skin tearing. 4....AND AN ADHESIVE The adhesive attaches the skin to the ski. In cold and wet conditions, adhesion may be difficult: in general, the adhesives do not perform well in water or cold, as it is harder for them to stick in a wet environment (mist or heat in spring/damp snow) or in the cold.
TIPON TIPON Your journey in the mountains starts with an enjoyable uphill ride: TIPON makes it easier! 100% SEALED MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGY The new TIPON membrane technology is based on the latest generation of polysiloxanes. Combining two types of induction (a membrane and an adhesive) directly on the fabric brings about great performance properties, such as 100% waterproof and high quality gluing, while keeping the climbing skin simple and light weight. Innovative performance and technical excellence make TIPON a revolutionary membrane technology. Climbing skins with TIPON come to be more compact and easy to use due to novel characteristics that push the boundaries of existing gluing and membrane technologies. From 100% waterproofness to UV and extreme temperatures resistance, TIPON takes a step forward in offering safety and comfort it the same time.

RACE RACE PRO Glide forever POMOCA RACE PRO skins owe their success to the finest, hand-selected raw materials and the new GLI- DE RACE treatment. This formula, a POMOCA trade secret, has been achieved through a lengthy testing and selection process. The result: a race skin with revolutionary quality and performance. All the more reason why POMOCA RACE PRO is the first choice of the ski mountaineering world elite. RACE PRO VERTICAL Pomoca Skin RACE PRO VERTICAL is the lightest climbing skin ever designed especially for Vertical Races. With Pomoca RACE PRO VERTICAL you get the same gliding as with the RACE PRO, saving over 10% of weight on skins. The weight that might make the difference at the arrival line. * 59 mm/ en 140 cm, without fixation 75g/skin* RACE The winning skin We asked ourselves: why do 9 out of 10 elite mountain skiers trust in POMOCA RACE skins? The clear and unequivocal response is that it is due to their gliding properties. But the POMOCA glue technology is also part of the reason. Why? Because POMOCA RACE skins can be placed more quickly and securely as they retain their adhesive power even after several skin changes. RACE PRO SELLARONDA The RACE PRO SELLARONDA skin is specially designed for competitive ski mountaineering on groomed ski trails, such as the Sellaronda Skimarathon which takes place each year in Italy. With the same technical properties as the Race Pro, it has a width of 55mm (10% lighter than the 62mm) which is best suited for groomed and low-tech surfaces, allowing better glide on flat or gentle slopes in particular.

HISTORY Since 1870, when they imported their first models to the French-speaking region of Switzerland, the history of the Dufour Family has been linked to tourism and the development of skiing. The family also organized ski excursions and competitions for the prestigious hosts of Montreux in Switzerland. In the 1930s, Louis Dufour, an engineer with a passion for sports, and especially for high mountain skiing, developed and marketed the DUFOUR-GAILLARD rescue sled. Light and compact enough to carry in a backpack, this cloth sled allows an injured person to be taken to the nearest shelter thanks to its skis and poles. Eric Dufour, the son of Louis, developed the production of nonslip skins, and later adhesive skins, making use of his technical knowledge and his experience as a hiker. With the help of his wife, he directed the company until his death in 1988. His son, Guy Dufour, took over as manager in 1996. In February 2011, POMOCA joined the SALEWA Group, turning a new page in its history and facing new challenges. As the Swiss specialist in adhesive ski skins, POMOCA has been known for more than 80 years for the excellent quality of its products and its technological innovations.
