Nah its not a MUST... but it is MUCH better.

you can screw around and jump, but dont expect to climb any huge hills without paddles!!!

I think they rock in the sand being so light. I have a Warrior and it pulls up the hills better than my buds 300EX, but his seems to get up on top of the sand better. Both quads are stock and his 300EX keeps up with my Warrior much better on sand than dirt or pavement. Neither of us has paddles. He has Razrs and I have Kenda Bearclaws. The Razrs kinda suck in the sand, but they didn't stop him from getting anywhere, just needed longer running starts.

I like riding his bike at the dunes better than my Warrior. I haven't put the heavy V Force on the sand yet, but I expect it to perform mediocre until I get paddles.

If you mean will they just fly through it like a banshee, no way. But just for fun they will do alright. I mean with paddles they'll get you up most hills but they just don't have the power to blaze through the dunes. Any quad in the dunes is fun though.
