G3 sent me a pair of the women's Alpinist skins to replace an old pair of Alpinists on warranty. Seems like there is less/smoother nylon on the base of the skins, i.e. less grip on the steep, icy gnar. Would make sense as they are designed for a lighter weight user. G3 assured me they are the same as the mens but i remain doubtful. Anybody tried these?
