So far so good except a one design flaw in regards to the cut and/or clip orientation.

First, I will acknowledge the challenge in getting a skin to properly fit onto an assymetrical ski (splitboard half). If you ski you likely never deal with such frustrating nose clips that aren't well aligned (because skis are generally symmetrical) but if you're Jones you should know how to make a skin.

Check out the photos but basically I wish the plastic portion of the nose clip was set into a position on the metal clip in such a way that the skin is aligned by default. Instead, the plastic piece is set in the middle of the metal clip which is not the position that creates equal tension between both edges of the skin upon installing the tail clip.

In one photo you'll see the default (centered) position on the nose clip. It creates slack on the inside edge of the skin which is very problematic.

In the other photo you'll see the nose clip which I've forced to slide into the position that creates equal tension across both edges of the skin. This will work fine but now the clip slides back and forth so it takes one extra step to align the skin.

Note, as designed there is a slight ridge on the metal tip piece that keeps the plastic portion centered. They can position this ridge so the tip connector is in the proper place from the get go.

Excellent grip on steep terrain. Only used once thus far, we will see how they hold up in the long run.

Loving my new Stratos 159 Splitboard. Floating like a boat and still holds an edge pretty good for a split. Enjoying the Pop the board gives me and with that short tail it is nimble for areas you need it to be! I‘m 180cm 75kg and ride the 159cm

These skins are light and compact. The glue is decent but will occasionally not stick and pocket in the front on a well waxed board. The glide is just bad. They won't even slide down hill. Probably worth it because they are cut to size, light, and have the quick tension tail clip. Black diamond skins offer far more glide and slightly better grip but they are heavy and their glue glops up after one year. So I guess I will stick with Jones for now.

Love these skins, Very good quality. I would say slightly less glide then my G3 skins, but they seem much more durable. The precut size fits perfectly on my solution, and the tail hooks are so quick and easy. Highly recommended if you can afford the price.
