I've used these skins for several seasons and I love them. I re-glue them every season because they definitely lose some stickiness over time. Love them, they hold up, and they do the job. My only complaint is the setup - the nails given to attach the toe piece are SUPER fragile and if you break one accidentally, there are no extras :(
