Love them

— Show original

Easy to attach and remove. Good balance of grip and glide.

— Show original

There are plenty of places to stay and even a small jacket can fit in the bag.

— Show original

Easy to install - For some reason, it took a little getting used to on the first few trips, which previous similar skins didn't do.

Do the job

They look fantastic. I look forward to using them in a months time.

The skins work decently well but usage is complicated by a missing protector for the sticky side, they only ship with a paper cover which flaps in the wind and rips up easily, hence does not provide service for very long.

Experiences with previous skis. Functional, good attachments to skis.

Have used several of Åsnes X-Skin and have always been satisfied. Varuste.net's price was better than other merchants' prices.

They seem perfectly compatible with Falketind 62 skis. They use an ingenious system for attaching the skin in the middle of the skis, which holds in place very well, and has minimal bump from the base of the ski. Looks like they will provide a lot of grip to climb, even though they cover only the kick zone of the skis. As for glide, I think it may glide almost as well as a fishscale kick zone would.

Worked well

In the longest Kongsvolds, with the 184/90 size, the narrowest skins don't even fit at all if there is even a little bit of a soft bottom. On a hard surface, it was enough for a comfortable ride. I will definitely order the widest skins later.

Good skin, easy to attach, 5/5.

In severe frost, at least good ones. Good glide, the grip is ok on the flat. You get tired in the mountains.

Better glide than nylon hair.

— Show original

Good grip and sufficient slip

— Show original

It's good and stays put.

Really good and easy skins for åsnes skis.

— Show original

Half-hairs easily attach to Åsnes skis. There is enough grip, only in closed climbs there could be more grip. Glide better than the same ski with full hair. In their own glue, the tent site did not properly hold the tent site when skiing.

Really easy to use and change. I have used two widths depending on the steepness of the uphill and the weight of the box.

— Show original

The attachment glunssi sticks to a harder surface and that's a minus.

— Show original

Easy to put on, and the holes didn't freeze up, which I thought a little about.

— Show original

A clever way of fastening.

— Show original

Overall, a really good purchase. Pros: +easy to put in place +excellent grip + good sliding forward in soft snow Cons: - on hard or wet snow, bad sliding, the plastic bracket catches the snow

— Show original

Easy to install and stays on the bottom well, even though the tape didn't seem to stick very well. Instructions in Finnish or English would have been good, but you managed to guess Norwegian.

A premonition and the experiences of others. Holds uphill, but not good on flat and hard. It crashes because the clip catches. You have to ski "in the back"!

Works well, enough grip

— Show original

Easy to install and good grip.

— Show original

Bad glue, you can't keep the glue surfaces facing each other like, for example, Colltex bristles. Ok grip and slide.

Excellent product.

Moderate grip. It could be better. It works ok with soft. It's hard to beat. Flame due to the plastic part to which the hair is attached.

— Show original

The ski still slid surprisingly well when this hair was attached. And the grip properties are also ok.

— Show original

It is worth checking that the glue is in order when buying. One pair did not stay on the bottom even when new inside during the installation phase. Otherwise, a great product with Åsnes skis.

The grip was significantly increased compared to the scale base of the skis.

— Show original

Good grip. The hard left plastic front piece clearly worsens the glide.

— Show original

They are fine

Basic grip for varying terrains

— Show original

Could be more durable.

Works

The fastening mechanism seems convenient. I haven’t had time to do more testing yet.

Easy to use. Skating murders.

Bad glue

Works very well with threshing and has sufficient grip in normal mountain terrain. However, the steepest rises have to go up a branch or across. Very easy to install and Plus a good storage bag.

Good grip and glide!

— Show original

The wear resistance of these is not magical, although it can probably depend on the footability of the ski. But well there is grip enough when there is even some kind of load-bearing layer somewhere in between the project.

Good grip.

— Show original

I get these 200cm for Kongsvolds and they work well. I have not shortened the strips. The front end mounting piece squeaks on a somewhat harder surface, but the glide is still reasonable.

— Show original

The skin held well when pulled flat and on a gentle ascent. Easy to put on and stays well. A little snow accumulated below the point of application, but does not affect the stability of the adhesive.

Makes things great. Quick attachment

— Show original

Really good half hairs and excellent grip.

— Show original

Grip is found, easy to use

— Show original

The fastener also takes the glide forward away, but on a hard bottom there are grips uphill.

— Show original

Good grip, can kiss.

— Show original

45mm provided a suitable grip for kongsvold yaks in frost. Good compromise.
