Fischer Twin Skin Replacement Skins

You should replace your skins when you notice a significant decrease in kick efficiency or if the mohair fibers appear visibly worn, matted, or damaged. If you find yourself slipping on climbs where you previously had solid grip, it is likely time for a fresh set.

No, these specific replacement skins are designed exclusively for 2017-2019 Twin Skin Carbon and Twin Skin Race models. Always check your specific ski model and length against the compatibility chart before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.

The installation is straightforward and does not require professional tools. You simply peel off the old skin, clean the base area thoroughly to remove any adhesive residue, and press the new skin into place according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Mohair is the industry standard for skin construction because it offers the best balance of glide and grip. It is naturally hydrophobic, which helps prevent icing, and provides a smoother, more consistent feel on snow compared to synthetic alternatives.

While they are ready to use out of the box, applying a dedicated skin anti-icing treatment or glide wax specifically formulated for skins can improve performance in variable or wet snow conditions. This helps prevent snow buildup and keeps your glide smooth.
