I have a 06 apex and i have a lot of trouble with it darting. i was going to get a set of stud boy duces but now im thinking about the snow trackers. i ride in alot in poor snow going through town how are the snow trackers on bare ashplalt also i have to go over alot of curves will the trackers get stuck on them? how good are the stud boy duces in these conditions? where is the best place to get snowtrackers?
 
SnowTrackers! I get mine from Royle Distributors. I have never had an issue on curbs or wearing on road travel.
Set your toe to 0 and make sure you don't have any shim's under your rubber bumper's and be ready to smile.
 
X 2. what he said.

Deuces are good but they push, cost top end & use a little extra fuel. Sno Trackers are the best IMHO.

They are awesome on pavement. Pretty much steer like you have wheels on your ski's.

I got mine from my Yamaha dealer.
 
Ive used both, deuces will last longer but snowtrackers are what I run just because I like the zero darting and aggressiveness. Dueces would be my second choice over any other dual runner.
 
Pilots with snow Trackers is what i have. Best setup and i have tried most everything out there.
 
I have pilots and have been running the 7" shaper bars and the do tend to still dart a bit. I'm trying the duece shaper bar this year and yes they are pricey. May try either snow trackers or bergstrom's next year.
 
You guys that r running the snowtrackers, r you running the semi's or the full extremes?
 
I run the aggressives with Yamaha mountian skis. Over 5000 miles with this setup. The Snowtrackers look to be in great shape still.
The doolies that I removed from the sled had 3500 miles on them and they were worn out.
My riding buddys run the stock ski with the aggressives as well.
Good setup, last long, steer easy and cheaper than buying another set of skis and multiple carbides.

I run the agressive's. If you are not a real agressive rider go with the semi's.
The semi's bite very well!
 
Thanks fella's. Have been relatively happy with the dually's. Worked wonders for straight tracking, but still not the best for bite. Would rate them about a 9 or 9.5 for tracking but about an 8 to 8.5 for bite. Could be cause I only have the 6" carbides instead of 8". One thing though is the dually's seem to have a lot of drag which hurts topend and fuel mileage.

Have heared alot of good things about the snowtrackers and thinking about switching when the time comes. Would also consider the triple points.
 
thanks for the advice im going to get the snowtrackers but now i need do decide aggressive or semi aggressive what works best? i have a short track with no studs.
 
I ran snow trackers for 1 weekend and sold them. I agree that they bite like nothing else but for my style of riding, they bite too hard. If you are the type to get air at every opportunity, snow trackers can put you in the rhubarb real quick if you land off kilter. For me, triples are the best balance between bite and forgiveness

Snow trackers may be the end-all be-all for the corner carving hero but for the mogul busting maniac... Not so much. Consider your riding style before you consider your carbides
