Mine are cut for JJs, so they would sort of work, but you would need to get a special tip-loop. Never seen ones bigger than what I have in stores, although they are on backcountry. Are you putting trekkers on your bents or something? Skinning with reverse camber and trekkers seems like a sub-par deal to me. I would try to borrow some other skis if possible.~

For how long? My skins might work, there cut for bluehouse districts so they wouldn't cover the whole base, but would probably work fine. I just need them back buy THursday night when I head to tahoe.

kscho, you might have to buy some, because most people don't tour on bents (because the lack of surface area on the snow makes skinning harder), and those are fucking huge skins. although you can definitely rock skinnier ones, just makes it harder. if i wasn't gonna be touring up at baker id let you snag my setup
