Pork skins (or rinds as they're called in the US) are definitely allowed because they are simply fried pork fat with a bit of the skin attached. Fat is not restricted on Atkins. The only caution I would give with pork rinds is that they often contain high amounts of sodium which will cause a lot of people to retain water, so if you do decide to enjoy them, make sure that you drink plenty of water.
