I've got some on order with some new kit coming today. Haven't used it on my existing skis, but I will likely add it there as well.
I used anti ice tape on my Mount Rainier patrol skis and thought it took care of a lot of the icing issues, but would still anti-glop them with skin spray occasionally. people would use everything from Pam to chapstick in an effort to fight the icing underfoot.
skiing down a challenging run with snow clumping up underfoot is no fun.
