You could always insert the noConflict code into the header of your template like so;
<script type="text/javascript">
$.noConflict();
// Code that uses other library's $ can follow here.
</script>
Or, Download and install jQuery Integrator from
extensions.joomla.org/extensions/core-en...ements/scripts/12995
and turn off jQuery loading in the Skitter module and load it via the above plugin in noConflict mode instead.
