I have a pair of Ski Trab Maestro.2 164cm which I ‘race’ on, but although I love the tip and tail attachment hardware I do hate the skin material glide they came with, no matter how much I wax them.
Could my favorite shop in the world cut and fit for me the Race Pro Grip with the proper tip and tail skitrab hardware?
Thanks in advance.

Keep expanding!
Best shop, expertise and service in the country hands down. Worth flying into SLC just to look around and get your gear properly fitted.

I have the Ski Trab Maestro.2 108/78/94 [164] with ATK Kuluar LT from you guys using leases but due to the new regulations for 2024/25 want to stick some breaks.
Question: will the 75mm version of the breaks work on my Maestro.2 (75vs78)?
Are they easy to install by myself? (I am handy but don’t know what is under the hood!)
Thanks - I want to stock them while available this year.

I just got from you guys the Ski Trab Maestro.2 Skis 164cm and measured with digital calipers the width at the crampon area to be 77.5mm; since this crampons are 78mm I guess they are the perfect fit? or should I go with the ATKs 86mm crampons - my binds are ATK kuluar 9
By the way, thanks for the great service last week for the above - the skis are binds are a piece of jewelry … so want the equivalent Crampons
