Ski Trab skins?

Out of curiosity what do you all think of these skis? I haven't skied them enough to really tell, but I wonder if they are actually too light for a lot of winter/early spring conditions? I imagine they're actually fine in corn conditions (haven't had 'em out in corn yet). I do wish they made a larger size.
Corey - I use them for summer skiing only... For example I haven't had them out yet this summer and have skied just about every weekend except this last. The snowpack seems to be firming up pretty well now; will probably let them out this Sunday to play

Where are these so-so reviews?Ski Trab sells some skins to fit, but reviews of the attachment system are so-so.
I use the Trab attachments. Granted, removing the skins w/o first swiveling the little tip part does risk breaking the tip attachment, by swiveling it out to the side is hardly a burdensome operation. And when affixed the tip system is super secure and sleek.
The rivet on the tail attachment though does cause it to protrude a bit.

Hard to say where you can get just the tail attachments, with the distribution of Trab being taken over by Scarpa this year.

Ripping at the tip is easier for me and do a similar setup as to below.

Be careful there. Slips in, yes. And slips, out, yes, for many hundreds of thousands of vertical, until one transition I was a little rough and leveraged it too much, breaking the attachment.I never swivel the tip attachment, it just slips in and out of the tip slot.
