Hybrid Mix 115mm Climbing Skins

The CONTOUR HYBRID MIX is a ski touring skin that demonstrates great functionality. Offered by the Camp brand, this model manufactured by Contour benefits from the proven HYBRID technology.

Benefiting from the advantages of Hybrid technology, this skin is made up of two different layers of technical glue. This allows a perfect alliance between the ski base and the back of the skin. The big advantage is that it prevents snow from getting between the ski and the skin. In addition, all the advantages of "glueless" skins are present: excellent hold even at very low temperatures and after multiple handling, no re-gluing since the adhesive can simply be cleaned with warm water to be reactivated.

To attach it to the ski, no tools are required, the varioclips at the front allow you to easily change the front edge according to the width and shape of the tip. The adjustable tailclip at the back is also suitable for twin-tip skis.
Offered here in 115mm width, this version is particularly suited to freerando skis with a width between 100 and 115mm at the waist.

Technologies used

Poplar

Poplar is a soft, light and resistant material, with a good ability to dampen vibrations. Used alone, or in combo with maple, it facilitates maneuvers and offers great stability on landing, two essential characteristics for this type of ski intended for fun all over the mountain.

Carbon

Our C45 carbon, integrated into the wood core, provides additional stability without weighing down the construction. Each carbon strip is braided into the fiberglass, ensuring the strength and rigidity of the ski along its entire length.

Super strong topsheets

We use the highest quality topsheet available, and we rigorously test it to ensure it stands up to regular abuse.

1+1=1

Since our skis come from the forest around us, it is important to ensure that a tree is planted for every pair of skis produced. Raccoon Skis is proud to be able to give back to nature through our partnership with Tree Canada.

Raccoon Flex

This ski provides good edge stability, both at the front and the back. Its soft flex at the tips and tails helps absorb irregularities, making it easier to initiate and finish turns.

Alpine ski geometry varies depending on the skier's skill level and style. Beginners prefer short skis with moderate camber and slight rocker, while advanced skiers opt for longer skis with pronounced camber for stability at high speeds. For off-piste skiing, wide skis with rocker improve flotation. Each geometry is designed to optimize performance in specific conditions.

The radius of a ski determines the curvature of its edges and influences the type of turns it allows. A small radius offers tighter and more precise turns, ideal for slalom and technical slopes. On the other hand, a large radius favors wide and fluid turns, better suited to speed and large curves.

The length of skis affects their maneuverability and stability. Shorter skis are easier to maneuver, making them suitable for beginners or skiers looking for quick turns. On the other hand, longer skis offer better stability at high speeds and are preferred for off-piste or big turns.
