There's usually not much use for oil with skis. Modern skis are mainly plastic, and oil won't do much for them. Older wodden skis are/were traditionally treated with tar as a sort of base preparation to keep the snow from sticking to them.

Should you put mink oil on skis?

No, you should not put mink oil on skis. Mink oil is primarily used for conditioning leather and can damage the base of skis, which need to remain smooth for optimal performance on snow. Instead, it's best to use ski-specific wax designed for the type of snow conditions you'll encounter. Regular waxing helps maintain the skis' glide and overall performance.
