Applying skins to your skis.

This is a quick tutorial showing you how to apply skins to your skis. (Skins Make it possible for you to stick to the snow so that you can hike up the mountain with your skis on.)

NOTE: Before you begin to apply your skins to your skis, make sure that you have cut your skins to the appropriate length, and width of the ski that you wish to apply them to. Make sure to follow the instructions that come with your skins when cutting them.  

Step 1 Your Skins

There are two sides to your skins.  One side is sticky, and the other side is made of fabric.  The sticky side sticks to the bottom of your ski.  The top of your skin has a cable loop that attaches to the top tip of your ski.
