Climbing Skin Tail Clip

thingiverse

###Overview: This design is for a tail clip to be used with climbing skins used for backcountry skiing, ski mountaineering, and randonnee racing. This design replaces the stock clips in the event that the design which shipped with your skins is poorly designed, or brakes. Design has been tested for light usage and works well, but has not been tested for aggressive kick turns or stabbing ski tails into the snow for storing. There are three separate designs in this upload; Black Diamond (BD), G3/K2, and Pomoca. **NOTE:** BD and Pomoca versions have not been tested on snow. Therefore feedback would be greatly appreciated. *** ###Revisions: + Revision 01 - Initial Release - December 11, 2020 + Revision 02 - Renaming initial upload to reflect K2/G3 compatibility, Added Pomoca and BD versions, Updated overview section to reflect changes. - December 24, 2020 + REV 03 - Updated BD Design based on user feedback and design optimizations - Feb 15, 2021 *** ###Print Settings: + Material - PETG, ABS, or PC - PLA has been tested but is brittle at lower temps.
