Has anyone ever used Woody's Slim Jim's on their snowmobile, regardless of type? I'm still running the factory carbides and it is time for some new ones; I'm surprised they've lasted this long, almost 3,000 miles! I'm open to suggestions to any brand! I'm also an aggressive rider, so I would imagine a carbide greater than 6" is optimal.

NOTE: I'm running the standard ski that came on the 2014 Viper sleds, not the new Tuner 2 or Tuner 3 skis.
 
My wife and I both have slim jims and are happy with them I put 8" on mine and 6" on hers!
I did some suspension adjustments and they rail pretty good and no darting.
 
I went back to the stock skis on mine after trying 2 others and went with the woody's dually 8" when the nose is down it corners well its just getting the timing right on the XTX to get the nose down going into a turn.
 
I've got the stock skis with snow trackers I love them, no darting at all.
 
I ran the slim jim duallys this past winter (lasted 800 mi)
Iam running the bergstrom triples this year, never seen anything but great reviews, they been out for years
