Pomoca Climb 2.0 Climbing Skins - Are they worth it?

With over 80 days on this pair of Pomoca Climb 2.0 climbing skins I have a quick breakdown. Are they worth it? And most importantly: will they work for the Average Joe? From frigid mornings in the Wasatch to long spring weekend tours and a few weekend hut trips, I have put the Average Joe hours into these skins and I have the answers you need!

My Pomoca skins froze up on me last weekend. I had to stick them up my shirt to thaw em out.

Dang... such a bummer see it happen to others! Gear failure is the worst.

Great review, Chase, except, umm, Pomocas are the best. Best balance of all the good things. Just have to maintain your glue lap-to-lap with good habits. You’ll start to understand when you get older and fatter how important weight, glide, and water-resistance are, which is where Pomoca really shines. Gain 30lbs and I think you’ll come around.

hahaha you bring up some great points! I can't knock Pomoca - they do make a great skin. However, the last two pairs I have owned the quality seems to have gone down hill for sure. I think I might get them re-glued by BSMP and I think I'll have the perfect combo! haha

SO. lets break it down. Price $179, your favorite Nylon skins, one width, $189. The Pomoca Climb 2.0 isn't a premium priced skin. Glue, don't know what you are talking about, they stick plenty good for multiple laps. They are not a Hybrid glue skin. And it doesn't get all that cold in the Wasatch. Grip, in Fresh snow a Mixed or even full Mohair skin grip as well as Nylon. They only do better on an icy skin track.

I have owned multiple pairs of Pomoca Climb 2.0 skins (used to sell a ton of them when I worked at the ski shop) and I used to love them. But I do think quality has gone down hill over the last few pairs I have owned. When it comes to price, I feel like the dollar goes much further with BSMP. You don't get the same glide but (i stand by this) you get better grip, a much more durable skin and tail clips that actually stay on. I still own and use Pomoca skins but when it comes to a true VALUE driven purchase (something I think the Average Joe is conscious of) I can't say Pomoca is my go-to recommendation.
