The Alpinist Grip climbing skins are the high traction edition of G3's Alpinist skin series. These skins have a 100% nylon plush which provides maximum grip (hence the name!) and durability. Along with the rest of the Alpinist series, the Grip skins have G3's extended TPU tip to avoid snow creep onto the skin's glue. G3’s minimalist, lengthened tail clip allows you to size these skins short (less skin on the tails of your skis), which is good because less skin means less drag means more efficiency. The Alpinist Grip is the ideal tool for those who prioritize durability and skin track traction.
