Why We Like The Black Diamond 135mm Glidelite Mix FL Skin
Kick turns and long steep sections of the skin track are no match for the Black Diamond 135mm Glidelite Mix FL Skin. These skins use a blend of mohair and nylon to ensure we can grip skin tracks in technical areas, glide across long flat spots, and jam them in our pack for a comfortable trip downhill.

Skins
Skins work great! They came with a skin cutter that was easy to use making the cutting phase of the skins easy going

Found a skin that's great in between!
Got the 135 width for bent 110 and wow this is great in between glide and climbing! I tested this in Blackcomb and Whistler flute summit and fantastic! Easy to put on and easy to take off !

Contour Hybrid Are Better
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Pros: great glide, super tacky glue. Cons: lack of grip, glue does not last. Ive used the skins for two weeks and the glue is peeling off when I am pulling them apart. I now have areas where the glue is missing. I am comparing my experience to Contour Hybrid Skins, which I have had a far superior experience with. The BD skins also do not climb as well as the Contours.

So light with great glide
II am really pleased with these sometimes 130 width skins can be heavy ad clunky and these are just awesome!

Perfect skins
Bought these for my son. but I used a pair all last year and loved them. No issues. Took my large framed body up anything I could do without much slipping. Seemed to glide better than previous skins I have used as well.

These skins just work!
I finally wore out my last pair of the same skins after a few years of heavy use. This was a no brainer to replace with the same skin. They have good glide and great grip when it counts on a steeper skin track.

Easy to set up
Bought this for my Atomic Bentchetler 184cm. Just need to cut side with special tool, super easy, no way to mess up. Very satisfy my purchase.

Classics
Tried pomoca, and G3 ... always come back to black diamond skins for the quality of the glue and the durability.

Much improved
GREAT skins. Much lighter than the nylon version I have from a few seasons ago. Gave these a chance over over *ahem* competitors known for their mix skins and don't regret it. Per usual, the glue on these is pretty strong skin to skin, but it seems much more an acceptable ratio than in past years. I used to need help to get my skins apart.

Okay
Great glue, good balance of climb and glide. Above average fraying of fabric is my main complaint. Harder to cut cleanly than others. I don't use the cutting tool, finding razor blades to be superior. Large packed/rolled size.
