"WOW! Great buy!!" - Review of Black Diamond GlideLite Nylon STS Skins

Rating for this product: 5 By -DeeJai (2) on December 25, 2007
I purchased the Glidelite's for my Volkl Karma's (New Zealand release with stiffening plates) powered by a set of Naxo 02's. The setup is a huge success, I am able to climb straight up, leaving my friends slipping out behind me. I love these skins. This was my first time cutting a pair, so I watched the video on BD's website, very informative, step by step instructions(the included instructions left some to the imagination). I did have a little trouble with the cutting tool, it was a bit flimsy, but it worked. The clip system is great I have not had any problems in the field after about 15 days out on them, in everything from rain soaked slush to fluffy dry powder. I would recommend you purchase the gob stopper wax with these, it's cheap, it will last a long time, and it will greatly help your forward glide, being one thing these skins lack in ease. I would not hesitate for a second purchase again.
