Race Skins of the Year - Pomoca Race Pro
In specific situations, something from Pomoca’s vast range—or a rival brand—might perform better. But overall, this skin comes out on top, excelling in variable conditions and especially on powdery winter snow. With its dense plush, it needs a break-in period to reach peak performance, and glide can be improved with an additional speed treatment. The collection also includes the Race Explore, for less extreme use; the Race Pro Vertical, which has a lighter backing but the same plush; the 55 mm Race Pro Slide, for less steep on-piste races; the Race Pro Grip for steep, icy terrain; and the Race Pro Sprint.

Tour Skins of the Year - Pomoca Tour Pro
With the old name (Climb Pro S-Glide) or this new one, it remains a leading benchmark in the world of mixed plushes courtesy of the balance between glide, grip, plush durability and treatments—all confirmed by our tests. It's always one of the fastest—up there with full mohair models—and prevents the formation of ice, while the stiff backing material helps it to adhere to the ski. The Pomoca tip hook is up there with the best, and the soft glue provides good tack, even at low temperatures.

Free Skins of the Year - Contour Hybrid Mix
In use, both grip and glide are up there with the best, making it a benchmark in the Tour and Free categories for all-round use, alongside Pomoca’s Tour Pro. It stands out for its excellent balance of performance, reliability and practicality. It uses a hybrid adhesive that offers good tack yet is easy to rip—even on wide skis and at low temperatures. It's not quite as good as the Tour Pro on dry, cold snow, but it's an excellent product you can rely on mission after mission.
