Jones Nomad Climbing Skins

Jones created the Nomad Splitboard Skins to balance outright traction on steeps with low-friction glide across mellow alpine meadows. This particular version of the Nomad Splitboard Skins comes with Quick Tension Tail Clips, which secure into the notched tails found on 2016 and newer Jones Splitboards. Made from a mixture of 70% mohair and 30% synthetic nylon fibers, the Nomad skins strike the sweet spot between glide and grip when you're skinning up a mixture of meadows and steep terrain during your backcountry tour. Both fibers are coated with an EVER DRY anti-glopping treatment that prevents frozen snow from sticking to warm skins, which is especially helpful in springtime when you're encountering a mixture of different conditions. They're also equipped with Grip Tech, which works well under the dynamic loads, twisting, and abrasion common when you're touring.
