LEXICON: cheat sheet

Lexicon: skins
cheat sheet - / tʃiːt ʃiːt / -
Plastic (often mesh) sheet used to separate the adhesive layer of climbing skins. Cheat sheets or skin savers help to prevent the glue on your climbing skins from sticking to itself. They are used to cover the glue base when not attached to your skis. The skin gets folded over this sheet, and then the pair of skins can be placed in their storage bag. This also helps prevent the adhesive from drying out when not in use.

\\ I always use a cheat sheet with my skins - less faff, less goo, less maintainence.
