Default Best Sand Paddle for a Raptor

Greetings! What's the best sand paddle for the Raptor? We've dropped one tooth on the front sprocket and now all this thing does is spin out of the hole.

I prefer the ITP Sand Stars. Haulers are great if all you are doing is racing the hill, but if you are gonna be duning at all the sandtars are better for cornering. Stay away from the sand Gecko's. They are too heavy

For straight hill climbing I'd go with everyone else and say the 8-paddle haulers..for all around duning, the ITP Sand Stars are awesome...

These tires would be for drag racing in sand or mine tailings. Any suggestions?

8 paddle haulers and i would play with the pressure up and down to get the best performance.I only mention the pressure thing because many times i have seen people use the same pressure for all conditions and if you do you will not be at your best.If you are experienced and already know this then disregard what i said but if not give it a try.
