i have egg beaters, though the nicer ones. never had any problems. if durring a cx race in deep thick mud i cant unclip from pulling up, im sure youll be fine skidding. hell i skid just fine in them and im a big guy...
I did just score some atac xs pedals super cheap the other day, been wanting a pair for a while. suposed to better than eggbeaters, im looking forward to using them. however, im gonna miss the 4 points of contact...
