I need new skins cause all the skins I have don't fit the skis I have. Which are the best? I'm interested in geko but do they stick well enough?
Thanks

never had an issue with BD
my brother had problems with his BCA skins
I hear g3's are nice, but i don't have any personal experience with them

I had some BD skins on my K2 Obsetheds. Just bought some longer skis and I plan on getting BD skins again. I've never used any other skins and I see no need to.

I have owned two pairs of g3 alpinists and they work pretty good. The guys I tour with use BD and seem to grip a little better and say they are more durable. I would get BD if you can, I only use g3 because I tour on Moments.
