BUILT FOR COLD AND DRY CONDITIONS

The ideal all-purpose, go-anywhere climbing skin built for cold and dry conditions. A mix of mohair for optimal glide and nylon for added durability.

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 extended TPU tip and self-aligning stainless-steel hands give a secure, lightweight connection and superior glide while trailbreaking. The updated tail lever and elongated tail strap makes 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.

  • Bomber tail connector & updated tail lever
  • Removable rip strip
  • Trim tool and skin savers included
  • Premium Plush: Lightweight, fast & durable
  • Non-toxic adhesive
  • PFC-free waterproofing treatment
  • Recycled & recyclable storage bag & box
  • Proudly designed, tested and manufactured in BC, Canada

G3 skins

I live in Alaska and have snow 8months out of the year. And G3 skins are by far the best designed, very durable, and reliable skins I’ve ever used. Not to mention, the best cutter :). Highly recommend.

Love the glide - especially on long approaches

classic tip hands and a set-and-forget tail clip are great. Glide with this carpet is A-one. Shipping was super-quick too.

Climbing Skins with style

Really like the look and features on the Alpinist+ Glide skins.
The extra tip feature saves on weight and there is less skin to slow you down while still providing the necessary grip where it is needed.

Thanks for your review! Glad to hear you're enjoying your skins.

To thick skies

I hava a question
I have the black crows anima in size 189 and my skins are size L they should fit fine the Lengt is perfect but the tip conetcor is to tight does not fit on the skies I was thinking to bend the tip but I am afraid to break the thing what should I do?

Hi Filip, please email our Customer Experience Team at service@genuineguidegear.com and they will be happy to help you get sorted out. Leave the skin protector sheets on the skins, in case it’s recommended you exchange for another size or need to return them. Thanks for taking the time to leave us your feedback!

Super fast on the skin track

My favorite skins for cold fast powder day skinning. Not for wet or icy, use Alpinist Grip for those days. Zero issues after 25+ days over two winters.
