Is there a product or a way to protect your ski tips? some skis have rubber tips on them, but others, like my skogens, don't.

Make sure they're sealed if you rivet them. If water starts working it's way into the skis, then it's game over.

Dont worry about hacking the tips up. Rivets are good for stopping skis from delaming. The only problem is they probably end up voiding any warranty you have on your skis.

to seal em up for when you put the rivets in, once the holes are drilled, just get some silicone and put it in the holes, then put in the rivets, and itll be perfectly sealed up and you will have no worries of water getting into the core and rotting it out
