Have these on my 06 apex gt. Wondering what carbide others use with that ski? Track is not studded! Current carbides are 6" not sure brand. They have 4 wear pads on them..3 in front 1 back. Anybody know?

generally a 6 inch carbide is all that is needed with most single keel skis. i would try shaper bars if your in the market for new carbides

Bergstrom 6" or 8" triplepoint carbides work great on the Slydog Trail skis with the Apex.
I'd go 8" if you're not studded.

I have the Slydog ski's on both my sleds. I use the Bergstrom triple points. I'm not going to comment on carbide length. If you use the Bergstrom triple points
with the slydogs you have to use the ski saver that Scott sends with them otherwise the host bar is too long for the factory impression. I don't care for the ski savers
with these skis so I just cut the end of bar to fit. FYI.

I run 6" Shaper bars on my Slydog powder hounds. They turn great. But next year adding the Half Pipe mod to the front of the carbides. to stop the darting in certain conditions.
