Wich its best for long distance rides (endurance Continental Gator Skin or 4 Season tire?

We have used three different Continental tires on our tandem (700x28) for 12k miles. 4Season best ride and wet traction, ideal for day rides, training and mixed weather. Hardshell best flat protection, ideal for loaded touring and multi day rides / tours. All are pretty long life.

What are the dimensions (H x W) aired up and mounted 28c size?

Haven't mounted the 700-28 yet - still riding the 700-25. But, can't imagine how you'd measure the "H" and both depend on the pressure you prefer, and on the rim with.

Are these okay for dirt/gravel roads ??

These are my favorite road tires. We ride these on our tandem (700-32) But they have limited to no tread and would not be my first choice for use on gravel or hard pack dirt.

How much better will this corner compared to the Gator Hardskins?

I haven't ridden gators in a long time so I can't make a great comparison. The 4 Seasons are pretty good though. No complaints about the cornering.
