Which aftermarket ski's?

[Speeedracer]

I've put extensions on my Crossfire 800 to make it a 144" with a 2" Challenger. I"m presuming it would be best to put different carbides, and likely ski's on it to compensate for the different length/track.

Which C&A's would you suggest with which carbides?

Best place to purchase?

2008 Crossfire 800
144" w/ 2" Challenger track

POWDER PRO. i love thses skis and wont go with anything else. float nice and hold a side hill well.

We certainly have to do our fair amount of trail riding to get from A to B......what are the disadvantages of Powder Pros' on the trail? What's the sled react like?

 

[XC700116]

The powder pros handle like they are on rails on the trail. they can make the sled a little tail happy though. But C&A's will do the same thing on the trail and won't really compare on the POW. If you buy Powder pro's you may want to get the modified ones from Carl's Cycle as they are supposed to be more forgiving on the downhills. I haven't tried the modded ones yet though but you can read about them in the Performance/Modified section or click here.

Simmons, for trails, deep powder, side hilling, climbing or boondocking.

Have you ever looked into MODS Skis?

Powder Pros, I love mine!

I have a set of powder pros and a set of simmins on each of my REV sleds. The better all around ski is the simmons. they work way better on the trail and also take to the powder good too. The PP's seem to be a better powder ski but don't handle on the trail nearly as good. I know this will change with every sled application though.

 

[mtnclimber]

I have both the Simmons, and and powder pro's. I love the PP's 99% of the time. The only time I don't like them is when there is a crust on the snow, then they are kind of a pain. Simmons are excellent ski's also, but in the fluff the PP's are superior

X-MT by PPD No darting on the trail and work great in the powder.

what ski? simmons

simmons on 3 of my 4 sleds. my 570 fan "let everyone ride it" does not have simmons

 

[GONRIDIN]

Ran the Simmons and PP's both. I kept the PP's.

Yes Carls sells them cut like that. It's supposed to go on the outside and keeps them from getting away from you on downhills and side-hills.

Put the Carls PP on my 06 700 Polaris and will be trying them this weekend. Can't wait to see the difference!!

Those ski's look bad ***. What carbides do they run? Run 3 different ones? two on the outside keels, one in the middle/?!?!?!

 

[BA.]

3 Keels,each keel has a 6" rail with 2" carbide on each rail.

 

[Speeedracer]

Are the keels deeper on those x-mdt's? How are they physically different from the PP's???
