G3 Alpinist Climbing Skin

Item #GGG0182 | 141 in Stock
3 Star Rating

great design, weak glue

By Ranked #446 - Climbing Skins September 3, 2009

Light, thin, foldable, with a fantastic tip attachment. Unfortunately, I had a lot of glue issues within the first year (not sticking consistently in temps of 0F -- 40F on the east side of the cascades). I swapped back to the old ascension stand bys, but secretly wished for the G3 skin and BD glue combo!
