I pulled my skis off today getting ready to put the sled away.
This is what my woody's look like. I have about 2k on them also have 192 studs in my track
So my questions are
repair (if possible )
replace
or change to something else.
any suggestions?

Do the ski shim mod and install new carbides. Hopefully you will get some wear into the rear of the carbide with the shim in place.

OK let's just pretend I have no idea what the shim mod is LOL
I was going to mount scratchers on my skis will that help or make it worse?

Scratchers will not help that wear on the carbide. Staying off the roads will tho.![Tg :tg: :tg:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tg.gif)

Any reccomendations on carbide length?

Carbide length will depend on studded or non studded track, driving style and trail conditions that you drive in the most.
I personally would go no less than 6" carbide.

X2 on shimming. As far as skegs, get a set of Bergstrom triples. They out last other skegs three to one.

I shimmed my skies and run stud boy shaper bars, I have around 2200 miles on a set and they still have a good amount of carbid on them.

Ride a lot of narrow twisty trails and am NOT very aggressive. I would say average rider.
so probably 6-8"?
