I have short, about 20cm, from the end trimming from my skins used as kickers, they work ok, as long as not too icy or steep. Surprisingly they stay put just with the glue.

Bjorn,

I I found that skinning with the front throw off but elastic still on, which gave a small amount of resistance not noticed....until I removed it and was ...

That slough slide would have done for me....at least my boxers!
