09 vs 12 attack angle differences/rear suspension?

[sscamaro_skwark]

I have an 09 154" that used to stand up like mad, even on slight hills, I was wondering if the newer sleds have reduced this or not, I know they have a different rear suspension geometry, but sounds like minimal changes. I love the feeling of skis up action & the sled still climbed like crazy (although it trenched like MAD), but not nearly as well as it does now that I can keep the skies MUCH lower while climbing (more track on snow means more traction). any input would be great as I am thinking about getting a '12

Isn't that what a limiter strap is for?

The rails/center shock were changed in 2010.

The attack angle is slightly different and the center shock 1" longer. Better for control, not as good for deep powder.

JH was correct in saying use the limiter strap. Let out the limiter strap, more traction at the front, lifts skis. Digs deep holes.

I was going to suggest the same.
