I have the Volkl Gotama, 133 / 105 / 124mm . I bought the 110mm skins. Will they be too narrow at the tip and tail?

I had 120's on my Gotamas, and kicked myself all the time that I hadn't used 130's. With a 110 mm skin under a 133 mm ski, you're going to have over a centimeter of exposed base on each side of the ski at the tip, and seven mm on each side at the tail. Good luck climbing firm snow with that much base showing.

Yeah I'd think you'll be just fine with the 110s

Well it is one straight width for the full length, so it definitely is not the same width as the tip or tail. This means no full coverage, which isn't that big of a deal. You still have a lot of coverage this way.
