Here lies G3 parts to repair your climbing skins or to build your own custom set.
Escapists Tip Kit - Self-aligning stainless steel clips to fit many ski tip shapes, sold as a pair.
Twin Tip Connectors - For use on skis with rounded tails and also fits well on splitboards. These are just the clips (no straps, rivets, etc) sold in pairs. These also work on BD tail straps.
Tail Mounted Connector - Topsheet adhesive backed mount used instead of a metal tail clip to hold on your skins. Sold as a pair at 2g each.
Tail Connector Kit - Sturdy plastic straps with metal clips, which fit best on skis with flattish tails. Comes with rivet plates and hammer rivets for attaching to the skin material. Everything you need for two skin tails.
Tail Strap w/Clip x2 - A pair of tail straps with the included hooks. Fits perfectly with the Rivet Plate and Rivet, neither of which are included but available here. Weighs 26g.
Tail Hook - Replacement tail hook for G3 skin tails. Sold individually.
Glue Renew - Two 140mm x 210cm sheets for reconditioning skins using the G3 glue formula.
Skin Savers - Storage sheets for G3 and other skins. Sold individually with one length in the package in either 110mm or 150mm widths. Store a full length of skin on either side of the sheet or cut in half and fold the skins over each sheet.
Rivet Plate x1 - Rivet plates to attach tail hooks to skin. Weighs 4g each.
Rivet x1 - Skin rivets that you hammer into place, smooshing the underside. Need 3 per rivet plate

I am considering using the Gluerenew on a pair of Dynafit skins that I am not happy with the glue situation (glue balling up and sticking to base of skis). Has anyone tried this product on non-G3 skins? If so, how did it work?
I see no issue with applying glue from a different brand of skin to your Dynafit skins. However, the one stipulation is that you must remove all of the old glue first. If you have patience, an iron, and a lot of paper grocery bags, you should be able to pull it off. Youtube is a great resource for tutorials on stripping skin glue. If you have further questions, feel free to reach out to help@skimo.co!

I re-glued an older pair of G3 skins, and would like to add the "rip strip" back down the center. (I liked that they made the skins easier to pull, and want the backup to pull them off if I get screwed mid-tour...) Do you sell the rip strip material, or is there something else you might recommend for that use? Thanks!
Great question, however, I have a not-so-great answer. To the best of my knowledge, there isn't a substitute material for rip strips! If you're finding the skins difficult to pull apart then it could be worth switching to a new skin (when the current one begins to fail) that is easier to pull apart. Something within the Kohla or Pomoca line would be worth looking into!

Run a strip of duct tape down the center. You’ll likely never get it off ever again but you’ll probably be able to take your skins off without a herniated disc.

I am looking for replacment tail clips (the middle picture between the tips and glue). Plastic on one of mine broke after 2 short trips. The tail clips do not appear in the purchase drop down...does that mean they are not available?
Dan, the best tip would be a tip loop which would be attached off center. This would be a good one BD tip parts. For the tails check out these Voile offerings.

Do you sell just the rivets for plates? I see them in description, but no choice under G3 skin part...
Hi Bartlomiej! Unfortunately no, we are out of them at the moment.

Hi- can the clip parts on the tail connector kit be taken off the strap. I have an existing G3 skin with a tail that has twin tip connectors. I want to swap those out with a more standard pair of tail clips. I’ll then use the old twin tip clips on a new skin and a new ski with a rounded tail
Can you use the strap (red plastic strap with the little holes in it) with a BD tail attachment (riveted metal piece that is attached to the skin)? I have BD tail pieces currently installed but would like to try the G3 straps. Hoping not to have to change out the riveting.
Hey Julie! Yes, kinda! The width at the attachment point is very similar and they use a remarkably similar tail bracket to hold them on to the skin. The only issue would be getting it installed. The width of the aft end of the G3 tail strap is a whole lot wider than the bracket, re-installing it on a bracket that's already installed on a skin would be pretty tough. What's going on the with BD kit that's giving you trouble?

Description's a little brief. Does this come with tip and tail parts and a trimmer?
