easiest and fastest way to secure,if you use straps how long till you cannot read the tag ? if the tag is missing cannot use by dots.so how many times in the next few years will you by straps and before long you would of paid for the super clams

I bought a set from Princess Auto for a little under $200 a piece. They are absolutely one of my better purchases. My only complaint is that when clamping down the Yamaha ski's you have to unscrew the adjuster past where it says 'not to go past' point. But so far have not had any problems and well worth the money.

Why don't you put some fender washers in between your hook loop and the deck, should raise the loop enough that you can screw the adjuster in farther.

Yeah it was my fault when I installed them. Didn't have the sled on the deck and just put them in and cut the excess bolt off. When I loaded my sled it was close to not being long enough. So for the next guy I guess make sure you have your sled loaded before you cut the excess bolt off the loop. Haven't had any trouble with any other brand of ski's so far just Yamaha.

Yes they're easy. Yes they're fast. BUT.....it'll depend on what skis you use them on. They work fine on two of my sleds, but they're too short for the Powder Pros on my big cat. That one moves around all over the place and I absolutely do not trust the Superclamp to hold it. I end up double strapping the back end. :(

I have run Superclamps front and superglides on my sled deck for many years. Finally ordered a trailer, so now I am treating myself to superglides throughout and all new Superclamps front and rear. It would take a truly exceptional product to top Superclamp. Exceptional-er.

Just thought I'd update this. Finally bit the bullet and narrowed my ski stance enough so the clamp reaches all the way across and now it holds just fine. So I ordered 2 of the rear ones and they work great too. Great product. Still think the front clamp should be built longer though. How's it gonna fit a (God forbid) touring sled?

Of course now that my skis are narrower I have to learn to ride all over again....but I wasn't that good in the first place! ;)

i have one major complaint with the superclamp product line up.....and that is that they don't make more products for me to buy....this level of product quality - and more importantly service - is lacking in so many industries...

Wendy does the unclamping and clamping. Easy to use lightweight but strong. I use 1 full length clamp across both rear skids to hold them down

Love em. Worth the $$$. Be sure to clean and lubricate them regularly- lesson learned the hard way.

I have a superclamp for a couple years now. Great product. I went and bought another so the sled deck has two clamps. I noticed the deck clips were different, so I filled out the form online and asked if their was a difference in quality. Within a minute of hitting send Randall called me and assured me it was just a change in manufacturing and that the only difference is appearance. Great service and a great product.
