What's best for the dunes? 8, 9, or 10 paddle straights? I hear different things from different people. I'm running 8 paddle Skat-Trak Edges right now (they're the 'V' paddles). I like to drag in the dunes, but I also like regular riding, also. I know that the V paddles are better for turning, but I'm wanting some straights just for duning. So, what's better, 8, 9, or 10s?

 

Eight is what you want. More paddles takes more power. Oh the Raptor has power, but it also takes RPM's to keep you floating not digging. Ten paddles should only be used on hopped up banshees w/ engine work.
