Hey guys, I know the Stryke ski & Snowtrackers have been talked about already. But my question regards what carbide to run with trackers on the Stryke? My last sled came with snow trackers on it, and to be honest I didn’t look to see if it still had the stock carbides with the U bars, or tracker carbides.
I have 800klm now on my 23 GT. I find it darty. If I can’t dial the Stryke ski I’ll go to another ski. But I heard of people having success with Snowtrackers, including myself on my tuners. So I’ll give that a hook. Should I go aggressive with the eps or semi? And what carbides are people running? Stock? Snowtracker or something else?

I personally still like the semi aggressive best on all single keel skis. If you get a little bit of push with some aggressives you better be ready when the bite again. The semi are more forgiving.

The carbides that come with them. There are two elements, the corrector plate and the carbide. You need both.

Oh ok, so you can’t use the stock carbide, or like a woody carbide with the Snowtracker?

You want their carbide. One of the functions of the snowtracker is the deep keel on the carbide. It acts as primary directional stability and works with the correctors to eliminate darting. It will also outlast most carbides.
