Black Diamond Ascension Nylon Split STS Climbing Skin

Designed specifically for powder-specific planks with a waist larger than 110mm, the Black Diamond Nylon Split STS Climbing Skins give you the same climbing performance with reduced weight and drag. A section of webbing in the middle of the skins makes for easier packing and quick on and off, while the adjustable STS tail strap gives you 10cm of leeway for different skis in your quiver. Black Diamond also added a split skin-specific tip loop made for the massive shovels found on most powder skis.

Bottom Line: Climbing power for your mega-fat powder sticks.

what is the width and (untrimmed) weight of these skins, also what is the width of the "non skin" strip and the middle.

Any idea what it's made out of and how strong it is?

The gap in the middle is to reduce weight. I believe it is also Nylon, I've seen it and it's plenty strong.

I have a pair of both Volkl Gotamas and Kuros. I would like to have to buy one pair of skins. Will these work for both? If not, which skin would you recommend?

How long is the difference between the two skis length? STS tailclips can work for a range of about 10CM. If your skis are drastically different in length, then no, you can't have them on both. If they can work for length, you are talking a large discrepency in underfoot dimensions. Goat is 105 and Kuro is 130, that means if you trim for the goat, you've got 12.5+ mm of slick bottoms on each side of your Kuro... and that could suck hard on a an icy early morning traverse.

In a pinch, Yeah, it'd work, but I wouldn't plan on skiing a season like that.
