Summer Climbing Skin Storage Tips

Skins are expensive, and while in-season storage is relatively straightforward (dry em' out and fold them in half) storing your skins for the summer can be a little trickier. Throw in some hot, hot temperatures and if you're not careful you could end up with a sticky mess next time you go skiing.

Fear not though, because we have a few tips for you that will help extend the longevity of your skins and prevent the dreaded molten goop.

Per BD:

Apply Cheat Sheets and keep skins below 32˚ C (90˚ F) for long-term storage in order to preserve glue quality. Use the skin bag to keep skins clean. After long term storage, remove Cheat Sheets at room temperature for best results.

G3:
  Lastly, if finding a cool dry place is easier said than done for you, don't be afraid to throw your skins in a ziploc bag and put them in the freezer. It sounds bizarre, but freezing temperatures are exactly what they're designed for.
