Recently I purchased a pair of modern climbing skins for my backcountry skis. I hate to use my old strap on Voile' plastic "Snake Skins". They climb just great but forget ANY glide whatsoever. Thus the new skins.

I wanted to get some Black Diamond skins but they didn't have any long enough for my Asnes Combi Combat 210 cm skis.

So... I found some G3 skins in 80mm width that did have the requisite length. They are a bit heavier than the BD lightweight skins and may or may not have glue as effective as BD's proprietary glue. But everything else about them is top notch.

Anybody have experience with G3 skins?

Any brand preference for waterproofing skin spray?
