Product Description
Åsnes X-Skin Nylon
Åsnes X-Skin Nylon is a type of ski skin designed for cross-country skiing and can be used on all mountain skis. Ski skins are strips of material that attach to the bottom of skis to provide extra traction on uphill slopes while allowing the skis to glide freely on flat and downhill terrain.
The skin is made of 100% nylon for the best possible durability and attachment, which provide good grip and glide in a variety of snow conditions. The nylon fibers are durable and provide a good grip on hard-packed snow. The nylon trap is excellent for wet and heavy snow, as well as on sharp roads.
One of the unique features of the Åsnes X-Skin Nylon is that it has an integrated attachment system that allows the skins to be quickly and easily attached to and removed from the ski. This means that skiers can switch between using skins and regular skis as needed, without having to spend a lot of time fiddling with the attachments.

Åsnes
Åsnes is a renowned Norwegian brand that has a history of producing high-quality skis for touring and mountaineering for over 100 years. The brand was established by the Åsnes family in 1922, and in 1933, they built their first factory.
The company expanded over the years and experienced significant success, manufacturing over 137,000 pairs of skis in 1977. However, the beginning of the 1980s was a challenging time, and in 1998 the company declared bankruptcy. This led to the establishment of a new company called Åsnes Ski AS. Currently, Åsnes Ski AS is a subsidiary of Active Brands AS, which continues to operate the brand.
Today, Åsnes is a world leader in the production of backcountry nordic skis, also known in Norway as “fjellski,” and is the preferred choice for skis among polar expeditions worldwide. Additionally, the brand is a distributor of trap brands such as Colltex and Pomoca. Åsnes is famous for its alpine and cross-country skis, touring poles, and patented trap lock introduced in 2003.
Apart from skis, Åsnes also produces other ski-related equipment such as bindings, poles, and skins. The company has a strong focus on sustainability and uses environmentally friendly materials and production methods wherever possible.
Åsnes has a long history of supplying the Norwegian military with skis, and the brand is also popular among international expeditions and adventure skiers. Despite the production being moved out of Norway, Åsnes still designs and constructs its skis in Voss, Norway, and continues to be a market leader in mountain skiing and leading other developments in the category.
