I am still in the experimental stage on snow. I have run with the directionals and it is fun. My first set of ski's were narrow and they steered incredible. Problem was they would not lift over any of the deeper snow. This wider set does not steer as well but if you are up to speed the truck stays up and fast through the snow. Tonight I added some strakes or runners on the edges of the ski's. I will give it another run tomarrow. It was too #*@! cold to stay out for more than 15 min with out gloves today 7°. I have an O.S.CVRX on this truck with an 18 tooth clutch and a 62 tooth spur gear. This thing flies across the snow.
