How did this set up work last year? What is the part number on those Sniper runners? ThanksI'm going to be running the Snow Studs brand Sniper Double Down 6" carbides on my new SRX.

I am going to try the Stryke ski on my new Winder. I had been running Cat skis with slim jim's on my 2017 and really liked it.
I have to do some research on what works on these new skis.

X2. Good thing is the bolt pattern is the same as the cat carbide. At least what I have read so far. Sounds like the Cat Bolt pattern snotrackers have studs that are to short for the STRYKE ski ?.. I plan to try the double down sniper carbide on them.. Cant figure out what the part number is for the Snipers. Guess I will have to try calling.I am going to try the Stryke ski on my new Winder.

Worked out great on hardpack trail conditions. I don't have the part number for you. I called Snow Studs directly and talked to Dave the owner. (Super nice guy and also a SideWinder owner). Give Dave a call and he should get you taken care of with the correct part number for what you need.
I really liked the new Stryke skis in all trail conditions. You can't compare them to the former Tuner skis. Not in the same zip code. Yamaha did a nice job with the Stryke skis. I ran 6" of carbide with a unstudded track with good results. I should mention that since I don't run studs I swapped out the 1.0" lug stock Ripsaw track with a 1.5" lug Ripsaw II track for better traction. I did need to increase my ski shock preload a tad to balance out the handling some. After that slight change I was good to go.
From what I recall the Stryke skis use the same bolt pattern as the Arctic Cat skis. Hopefully this helps!
