About Skip • The Story
Born at Google X.
Forged in the Coast Mountains.
We didn't set out to build a robot. We set out to make the mountains accessible for decades longer—whether you're pushing a 2,000-meter summit day or returning to the trail.
Apparel first, robotics second
Every gram is sculpted to move, breathe, and flex like premium alpine outerwear—never a rigid brace.
100% on-device privacy
Stride telemetry is computed locally on embedded processors. MO/GO never requires cellular service or the cloud.
Built for longevity
Snap-off actuators, replaceable carbon cuffs, and hot-swappable batteries ensure years of trail service.
Timeline
Project Mountain Goat begins inside the Moonshot Factory.
Skip partners with Arc’teryx to integrate carbon cuffs into the Gamma pant.
Over 10,000 vertical meters of field testing with mountain guides.
MO/GO Batch 01 reservations open alongside trailhead demo hubs.
Field Tested
“I carried a 42 lb camera and rope kit up the Chief without the usual late-day quad cramp.”
“The cleanest eccentric knee offloading curve I have ever measured outside a gait lab.”
