so, how does the front part of the skin connect to my ski? I have Volkl Gotamas (2009) and wondering if its better than the other connector version on the G3 Alpinist skins? I think that version is better designed. What is the big difference between the two skins besides weight?

The tip loops just go over the tips of the ski. The Alpinist skins have a better design for blunt tipped powder skis. I'd go with the Alpinist skins over the Expeditions, but Black Diamond makes better quality skins and are worth looking into.
