No problems thus far

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #477 - Climbing Skins March 17, 2009

I have been using these skins for the last three years and have never had a problem. They come precut to any BD skis but can be cut easily to fit any other skis. They are not the lightest skins but what they don't make up for in weight, they cover double in functionality. They seldom slip and if they are taken care of they can last forever. Anyway a little more weight attached to your feet can only make you stronger in the long run. These skins are bomber and work way better than any other skins out there. Make sure to insert the metal tail clip at the tightest possible setting and you will have no problems with them coming off during your skin. I have had touring days when i have put on and taken off these skins over ten times and they are easy and manageable every time. Hope this helps
