Any body run these for trail? I liked them on my Polaris, and and would need to buy the correct mounts to run them on my Apex. Anybody? RR

I put them on my 06 Gt for a trail ride after some heavy snow and they were great when the snow was deeper.I really didn't get enough groomed trail miles on that day but what little groomed sections I did ride it handled good but did dart a bit but could have needed mabey a little shimming.
I don't ride enough off trail to take full advantage of their potential so I don't have these on full time.
They are good on softer trails and carve pretty good with 6 inch bars on.The softer the trail the better they were.
With the stock skis my GT had a tough time of it in deeper snow but the Powder Pros took the sled over and through 2 1/2+ ft of snow on this day.
Still a single runner ski and meant more for softer trails/powder but there may be other skis that work better with the heavy Apex sleds for mostly groomed trail riding.
Some like them,some don't.
Nice xtra set of skis if you go to the mountains or live in the snowbelt.

I have them on my apex and think they are great for the trail. They hook great in the loose stuff! The only time ive had them dart is in the morning on fresh groomed trail that is set up. I think they are a great ski. Biggest drawback about them is if you ride with multiple sleds running them. They want to run in the track no matter what.

I've got them on my stretched Nytro. They are great for off trail ... but they are also great for on-trail. They've got a nice deep keep for aggresive trail riding, and grab hard on groomed trails. And because they are also a powder ski, they still perform with the trail gets loose and sloppy.
