G3 Alpinist Plus Glide and Alpinist Plus Pow Skins Review

The G3 Alpinist Plus Glide and Alpinist Plus Pow Skins both have a Poly Urethane tip to help reduce the migration of snow between the skin and ski base, however, the tip on the Pow Ski is much longer and not convex in shape like that on the Glide skin. This additional length of the PU plastic tip helps reduce friction when breaking trail in deep snow. Because of these plastic tips, the Alpinist Plus Skins are folded end-over-end and not glue on glue like traditional skins. This allows you to easily store them in a pack or jacket pocket.
