G3 Alpinist+ skins provide maximum grip and traction and are ideal for steep ascents and icy skin tracks. High-traction nylon plush material for durability and versatility. The stiff material of the ALPINIST+ tip creates a rigid platform that keeps snow from creeping under the skin and extends the use of your adhesive. New tip connector with an extended TPU tip and self-aligning stainless-steel hands give a secure, lightweight connection and superior glide while trail-breaking. G3s low profile and elongated tail strap make transitions fast and easy. The refined camming clip stays positioned on the ski, reduces wear, and allows for easy adjustments. Removable rip strip reduces skin-to-skin adhesion, making it easier to pull apart skins. If your glue gets contaminated on an epic traverse, you can remove the strip for extra adhesion.
