I am in a little delima..... I just got my cannon and i am going to be adding a pipe and remap soon.I weigh about 150 so i get pretty good wheel spin. Ok now that you know what i am going to do to it could you guys help me out on which paddle to get?, I am thinking about geting 8 paddle haulers, 9 or 10 paddle gliders or an 8 paddle half hauler half glider?? Which one would you get????

Thanks in advance...

 

i have 8 paddle skat track edge they have worked really well in the sand the curved paddle also allow you to slide well in the sand you still get some wheel spin but they still seem to throw a good amount of sand. if you want to get rid of some wheel spin then go with straight paddles that is what i'm going to do. the bike will slide enough for me with out the edges hope this might help

 

I would also recomend the 8 paddle edge 20x10x10 which works well for me, I'm a little heavier and with the 20x11x9 edge I got to much hook, which made it hard to keep the front end down and hampered turns with the excessive bite. Haulers are good, but don't turn as well.

good luck!!

 

I run 20x11-10 sand skate II, they work well sliding and hook up well. I do have about fifty pounds on you though.

 

Anyone using the gecko? Is it all hype or a good tire? Pretty new, never been in sand before.

Thanks for your help

 

I have used the 8 paddle edges and the 8 paddle haulers both on a 9" wide rim and a 10" wide rim. It depends on what you want to do in the sand. The edges are a LOT heavier tire but they are more durable. They definately turn better. The Haulers are by far the best if you plan on hill shooting or drag racing. The last time I was at Florence, I was racing up Comp hill with the Edges on and was getting beat out of the hole every time, later I switched to the Haulers on 10" rims and man did I come out of the hole in a hurry!! The Haulers on the 9" rims give you more top speed but not as much traction IMO.

 

I run geckos, they seem to be good. They throw a big roost and i can get up any hill at sandlake. It seems like the quad could handle a more agessive paddle though. It will turn them no problem. They corner really well and are smooth running. When they wear out i think i will get somthing more aggresive for better holeshots. They are heavier then Haulers though. To sum them up i am happy but feel i could do better. But i have never run anything else. And you know that the grass always seems greener on the outherside.

 

Thanks for the help everyone for all of your imput i think that i am going to get the 8 paddle haulers on a 10in rim..

Thanks again
