Why We Like The Black Diamond Glidelite Mix Split 140mm Skin
When peaks need to be summited and powder needs to be slashed, we grab our Black Diamond Glidelite Mix Split 140mm Skin and embark for the trailhead. These skins use a blend of mohair and nylon for impressive weight savings, traction, and glide, as well as an STS attachment system that lets us keep moving.

Splitboarding feels like a second thought
It feels like splitboarding is just a second thought for BD with this product. I know they are new to the game but don't sell a half finished product if you want to be a quality brand in the community. Of note, their written instructions don't match with their video tutorial for splitboards. Seems they updated the ski video but not this one. Second, the instructions say to line up the straight edge but for my average sized board, this does NOT work. It sets the board so far over that the side tail clip won't even reach. Trying to line things up becomes a guessing game for the user and struggling to get the right angle instead of providing a product that naturally works as provided. I've been using BD gear for a decade but for these, I'd shop for something better designed for the use case.

Compatible with different splitboards
Good quality skins. They come uncut and I was able to cut them myself. Recommend filing down the screws after you trim them so they are flush.

So far so good!
Recent purchase, but so far so good after 4 days of touring in the San Juans. We are transitioning into spring time conditions here so I am curious to see how they will handle a spring time skin track, but so far the grip and glide have been great.

Best Skins for a Cardiff Splitboard!
These are amazing! Don't think these won't grip as well as the ascensions because they are so grippy and have the glide that the ascensions don't. They pack down so nicely and the glue has been great from my years of using BD skins. If these are in stock, get em while there available because they go quickly in the shop.

Ok but not as good as the old Glidelite
I got these skins as a professional avalanche educator and splitboard guide, curious about the new combo mohair nylon. I think I got ones with a bad batch of glue but in my experience the old grey glidelite skins not only worked better, they seem to be a little smaller/more packable and have a better glide/grip combo.

Light, stick well, glide great, grip gorgeously
Best skins I've used to date, including other BD skins and Pomocas. They do everything well, get yourself a pair!
