Volkl’s Rise Above 88 skins are the perfect complement to your backcountry and touring arsenal. The popularity and proliferation of backcountry skiing and touring are nothing short of remarkable, and the way the ski companies have caught up is quite impressive. Due to demand, ski companies like Volkl that are making touring-specific skis are now making skins that attach to those skis, and the Volkl Rise Above 88 skins are a prime example of that. Featuring a few things that make it stand out from the pack, the Rise Above 88 skins are a Mohair Mix for grip and confidence even on the sketchiest of terrain. When you’re ascending the steeps, it’s about as frustrating as it gets to slide back down, so having the proper traction is of the utmost importance. Designed and cut to fit the Volkl touring skis, the Rise Above 88 skins are aptly named. They’ll allow you to ascend and climb to the most distant peaks that you can find with as little energy expended as possible. Thanks to Volkl’s long-standing tradition for making quality touring products, you can rest-assured that these are of the highest-grade of materials and engineering. Other than the Mohair mix in the grip, the other big thing for these skins is the fact that they have a Smart Skin Clip which puts a lot more of the decision-making process on the foot of the skier. You can release the skin from either the tip or the tail, freeing you up to focus more on where you’re headed rather than where you stand.
