Pomoca RACE PRO Skins - TOP FIX RACE 62MM

Pomoca RACE PRO - TOP FIX RACE 62MM Skins: Competition-level glide and precision on the ascent

The Pomoca RACE PRO - TOP FIX RACE 62MM skins are designed for performance-oriented ski touring, with a clear goal: to optimize your efficiency with every stride. Part of the high-performance POMOCA range, they feature a POMOCA Formula specifically developed to deliver efficient glide while maintaining controlled grip. Their integrated Top Fix Race attachment system is designed to meet the demands of race formats and fast-paced outings. Weighing just 94 g per skin at 59 x 145 cm, they are aimed at skiers seeking a lightweight, precise, and competition-oriented ski skin set. The TOP FIX RACE 62MM version incorporates these features in a width suited for narrow touring and dynamic backcountry skis.

Glide and performance: optimizing every step on the ascent

Designed for speed, the Pomoca RACE PRO - TOP FIX RACE 62MM skins put glide at the heart of their design. The glide value of 171 kcal/h translates to excellent energy efficiency: for the same effort, you enjoy smoother progress and a continuous gliding sensation during long ascents. The GLIDE PRO treatment integrated into the suede further enhances this efficiency by reducing friction between the ski skin and the snow, which is particularly noticeable on well-groomed ascent trails or race routes.

This performance-oriented design allows you to maintain a dynamic stride, with a noticeable sense of fluidity when linking turns or traversing long flat sections. Combined with a weight of 1100 g/m², the skin remains in a lightweight category suitable for outings where every gram counts, without completely sacrificing the grip necessary for serious ski touring.

Grip and traction: controlled traction to limit slippage

Although the Pomoca Race Pro skins prioritize glide, their grip level is perfectly balanced for athletic use. With a grip of 38 g/cm², the skin offers controlled traction that limits backward slippage on the ascent while avoiding excessive braking of your progress. This grip value is suited for competition routes and well-defined tracks, where the balance between grip and glide becomes critical.

This technical compromise is particularly appealing to skiers who know how to manage their weight distribution and position while ascending: the skin doesn’t “stick” to the snow more than necessary, but it provides enough grip to stay confident on moderately steep or variable terrain. This allows you to maintain an efficient stride, with energy return consistent with the expectations of race and fast backcountry use.

Durability and Materials: Formula POMOCA and Integrated Technologies

The construction is based on the POMOCA Formula, a blend of fibers and treatments developed by the brand to optimize the glide-to-grip ratio and the skin’s performance over time. While the exact ratio of mohair to synthetic fibers isn’t specified, this specific composition is clearly designed for performance, with a pile calibrated for competition. The controlled weight per skin (94 g in 59 x 145 cm) reflects this work on materials, designed to reduce fatigue on ascents.

Several technologies round out this package. The SSL (Safer Skin Light) laminate aims to lighten the structure while maintaining a reliable base for repeated use, which contributes to the ski skin’s longevity during back-to-back outings. The EVER DRY 3.0 treatment, which is hydrophobic and fluorine-free, helps the skin limit moisture absorption, helping to maintain consistent glide performance as snow conditions change throughout the day. Finally, the GLIDE PRO treatment enhances the skin’s ability to glide smoothly, providing tangible added value on every ascent.

Compatibility and practicality: Top Fix Race 62MM system

Designed to fit narrow touring skis, the Pomoca RACE PRO - TOP FIX RACE 62MM skins are available here in a 62 mm width, paired with a standard length of 145 cm for the base model. The Top Fix Race attachment system is included and weighs just 5 g, making it a very lightweight solution for a competition-oriented tip-and-tail binding setup. This system is designed for efficient installation and quick handling during transitions—a key factor for race formats or outings where you’re constantly switching between ascents and descents.

In use, this configuration promotes precise placement and stable skin retention on the ski, with a consistent fit for touring skis with narrow waist widths. You thus benefit from a harmonious combination of the 62 mm width, the Top Fix Race system, and the glide and grip characteristics, for a cohesive package on your race or fast backcountry routes.

Who is it for?

This model is designed for ski tourers seeking a performance-oriented skin, with a focus on glide and efficiency. It is particularly suited for competition use or athletic outings where you use narrower skis on groomed trails with a mastered climbing technique. If your goal is to maximize efficiency with every step and minimize energy expenditure while maintaining sufficient grip, the Pomoca RACE PRO - TOP FIX RACE 62MM skins meet these requirements precisely.

By choosing the Pomoca Race Pro TOP FIX RACE 62MM skins, you’re opting for a ski touring skin designed to optimize the balance between glide and grip, supported by proven technologies like GLIDE PRO, SSL, and EVER DRY 3.0. A smart choice if you want to get the most out of your backcountry and competitive outings, with a lightweight, technical setup that aligns with your performance goals.
