We shape skis; skis shape us.
Where every ski takes shape.
Against the wall, timber planks stand upright. Around them, sheets of aluminum and rolls of fiber wait along the floor. At the center, a machine the size of a boulder turns drawings into material. You smell the resin before you see any of it. Prototypes stand in a row, each one a hunch, a hypothesis, a sensation we carry up to the snow. This is where every ZAG ski takes shape, within reach of the north faces, before it ever touches the mountain.
Mohair, nylon, or a blend: Which fabric should you choose?
Mohair, made from Angora goat hair, offers the best balance between glide and grip and performs exceptionally well on cold snow, but it wears out faster. Nylon is very durable and provides good grip in wet conditions, though at the expense of glide. The blend is the industry standard—and the choice for the ZAG line, which consists of 70% mohair and 30% nylon.
Pro or Classic Skins?
The Pro, in white, is the performance model: it offers the best glide in its class on mixed skins, industry-leading anti-clumping treatment, and high durability. Designed for regular skiers and challenging outings. The Classic, in black, is the reliable entry-level model: it features the same velvet as the Pro, but with a simplified adhesive and membrane system. For the occasional skier who wants a sturdy product without overspending.
What width of leather should I use for my UBAC?
ZAG skins are available in 89, 95, 102, and 110 mm, pre-cut to fit each UBAC model. Choose the width that matches your ski's base.
How do I store my ZAG skins?
Let them dry at room temperature, with the adhesive exposed to the air. Unlike most skins on the market, ZAG adhesive allows you to fold them directly, skin-to-skin, without a protective mesh. Store them flat or hung up in a dry, temperate place.
