New Stainless Steel Fin Spikes for greater grip and greater glide!!
Skeats™ Glide Fins are for those looking for improved grip and glide power. They will benefit any skill level. For the beginner, steeper slopes and kick turns are easy to master.
Skeats™ Glide Fins are small and packable and can just live in your backpack. You can pack them in an old sunglasses case or simply stow in a hip pouch.
As a bonus, you will always have two 20” Skeats™ branded Voile straps with you that can be removed from the Skeats™ and used independently for any repair/first aid needs.
In emergency situations the Skeats™ Glide Fins can also be used as emergency boot crampons on stiff sole mountaineering and snowboard boots. Skeats™ Glide Fins are NOT intended as a replacement for mountaineering boot crampons and are only to be used as a last resort to help reach safer terrain. Practice with them in safe terrain and never over any life threatening exposure. Carry proper mountaineering boot crampons on tours requiring them.
Skeats™ are also the perfect option for people who use more than one width of ski, more than one type of binding, more than one splitboard, or who both ski tour and splitboard.
SIZING:
The mounting position should be just behind the tour mode toe piece; please measure the width of your skis at the recommended mounting location to determine the best size that will work for you. For skis this is near your waist width.
- The Skeats™ Glide Fins 85mm (154 grams per pair) Will work on ski widths from 85mm and wider.
- The Skeats™ Glide Fins 105mm (107grams per pair) Will work on ski widths from 105mm and wider.
