Pondering a set of paddles for snow riding. I was looking at the Kenda Sand Gecko. Thoughts? Suggestions?

I've got Bear Claws on the quads and a Wooly Bogger style on the 200S, both styles don't do too bad. These would be for the 200S or the 200X once I get it running.

I'm not talking from experience, but i hear 4 snows are the best.

I can tell you at a pensiltuckey ride i rode my 350X in the snow w the tires i had on it, it was TERRIBLE! freaks 350X broke down and he offered his 4snowto to me,.. it was a totally different trike! I couldnt believe it was the same trike! If i played in the snow more i would have 4snows on my trikes!

What do you run for snow?

I have fond memories watching toudours videos, riding on barren snow on Canadian land. ALL of the guys in the video run Maxxis 4-snow tires, and they get places. Sand tires are for sand, and give you a rough ride on hard pack. Give the 4-snows a try!

I just check out the 4-snows and I like 'em!

I'll probably wait until we get some snow to make sure I can use 140.00 worth of tires tho!:naughty:

From what I hear, you will not be disappointed.

Although 4-snows are great from what I see, I wouldnt be afraid to run a set of some tough molded paddles in the snow. I have ran Sand Skate 2s in some deep snow and they worked great. And since Sand Geckos arent worth a sh*t in the sand maybe they would do well in the snow :beer

This past winter I ran Swamp-lites with the tread backwards. I'm going to buy a pair of 4 snows before this winter though.
