A climbing skin, in its original form, was quite literally a piece of animal skin attached to the base of skis - with the hairs pointing down hill, towards the back of the skis. This provided the essential grip needed to walk uphill wearing skis. Nowadays modern synthetic materials are used to perform the same task but far more efficiently. Modern climbing skins have a unique directional pile that provides grip on snow, preventing the skis from sliding backward during uphill travel, while still allowing them to glide forward.
