UNCOMPROMISED PERFORMANCE AT UNRIVALED WEIGHT
Building on the strength of the classic ALPINIST, the MINIMIST UNIVERSAL is the lightest, most packable fully-featured nylon skin in the world with unparalleled versatility, durability, and usability.
The MINIMIST skins achieve an ultralight feel by using high performance textiles from other demanding sports applications as a backbone. This results in climbing skins that exceed the highest expectations for features and performance. Every MINIMIST skin is up to 30% lighter than anything else in its performance class.
The MINIMIST skins pack small enough to fit into your jacket pocket. The low-bulk materials matched with the minimalist tip and tail system create a tightly packed roll that doesn't require any extra room in your pack.

The skins are super easy to cut and set up, about average performance on their first outing. The glue seems bomber so far. Unfortunately, the loop of the tail piece( presumably designed to pull to get tension) broke on first use. I’m hoping the tail piece doesn’t totally fall apart.

Been using G3 skins for 7 years. Never had an issue with them.

I just did a short tour on my new G3 skins and they were noticeably lighter and compact for travel. Will need a few more tours to form a useful opinion. But one thing of note is that when I placed my order, it asked for width of skis and I responded 100, and they are 100 but I think that is kind of misleading because they are a tad narrow at the shovels and tails though I'm sure they will be okay. I just like to trim for most base coverage
Point #2, I love my Pivot poles in so many way but today the latch that adjusts length broke, which had never happened to an adjustable pole before. Can you tell me what I need to do to get it repaired or replaced?
Thanks, Ed

I was not a fan of the plastic tip on the G3 skins I had before, so opted for this minimalist version and they are awesome

Do the skins come as a set of two for the price shown? Or do you have to buy two skins (one for each ski) ?
Hello Mat,
When you order skins you get 2x skins, skin savers, and the trim tool. Everything you need to run your skins is in the box.
Hope this helps!
