Heading into 2018-19, Vancouver, BC-based G3 has redesigned its climbing skins so that skiers can easily “choose the right skin for any mission.”
The new Alpinist+ series boasts five different products, each focusing on a different strength: Universal, Grip, Glide, Speed and Pow. G3 utilizes a combination of different fabrics to provide the ideal grip and glide for each specific condition. Each new skin also boasts a reformulated adhesive that will allow for more laps without glue application.
For these reasons, G3’s Alpinsit+ series of skins earned one of FREESKIER’s coveted Best of Show Award at this year’s Outdoor Retailer.
Go ahead and take a gander at the below series of videos, which dive into the design process and tech used in G3’s skins. As a bonus, we’ve included product videos of featuring the company’s new SEEKr ski and ZEN binding. Gear junkies, have at it!
