I’ve been using SK’s and agree that they do wear out quite quickly and I don’t really skid at all. However, I’ve only ever had one puncture so I’m happy with the compromise on longevity.
Think I’d like to try Contis new(ish) gravel tyres as I’m a big fan boy of 4 Seasons for road riding.

Terratrail/speed?
They look (to me) like they'd tear up just like the SKs if you skid on them.
There are more tyres in the Urban/Tour range that look like they'll stand up to skidding buy none of them are tubeless.

What tyres are people running on their tracklcross bikes?
I've been using Gravelking SKs but they wear out hella fast even with zero tarmac skidding and very limited gravel skidding.
I'm not convinced the tread on the Gravelkings is really doing much so would be tempted to go for a slicker, more durable tyre next time (if that exists, I've gone to the bother of building a tubeless wheelset for the bike so would like a tubeless tyre if possible).
