i just took my viper rtx se for it first run, 0km's on her until tonight. I changed the sliders and studded it before I went out, we got about 4" of fresh snow tonight and I left the stock skis and carbides on it for the maiden voyage... Wasn't getting much traction and felt like everytime I'd give it some gas the track spent more time spinning and not pushing me forward... Not sure if it had more to do with the snow not being overly packed down or if the suspension still needs some dialing...? I have it all on 2 right now I think, didn't actually look at anything other than the front clickers and went for it!
Dialed in for what? What is wrong?

I ride pretty aggressive,lots of tight Twisties, with some straight streaches!
240 with gear,no matter what I try can't keep the front end planted, second you touch throttle it pulls the front & wants to wash out

Coupler on 1? Limiter all the way out? If its just washing out and not actually hoisting the skis out of every corner just start backing the center shock spring off 1/2 turn at a time. Get way forward on the sled in the corner and out of it. Try running rear shock on 2 or even 3. That's first step. Much more can be done if needed but try little steps because you don't want to lose transfer.

Actually lift the ski's, transfers quick, front skid spring very loose,rear torsion on 3 or 4 acts the same,rear qs3 on firm, limit strap allway out, transfer block on 1&3 doesn't seem to make a difference
Pull limiter in 2 holes.
