I've got a new ProClimb coming and one of the things I hear is that it feels front heavy in the deep. I was thinking of getting a set of Powder Pro skis for that. Is this a good idea or is there another suggestion?

I put slydogs on mine for this year. A lot of guys seem to think they worked well for them. Time will tell I guess.

Has anyone tried simmons? I'm guessing they will be really aggressive like they were on a Rev. I had sly dogs on my 09 M8 and really liked them.

What carbides are best for the powder pros?
I run the powder pros on my M1100T, and use the standard wear bars (no carbide). But, if I was trail riding the machine, I would use 4" carbides. You will like the PP's on the proclimb chassis, they work very well.

I have a set of simmins gen 1 on mine but haven't had much of a chance to try them out other than just around the yard. Time will tell I guess. Hope to hit Valemount mid December for first trip of the season.

I installed Powder Pros and my 2012 M1100T. I got the narrowing kit -arms as well. I think they are going to be much better. Oe thing I have noted on the hard pack is that the Powder Pros have a very high final flange and a deep keel. The deep keel allows the sled to fall over more aeasily and it stops on the top flange - gives a good sweet spot to balance the sled on its side. Can't wait to ge to the mountains to try it it out.

They were also easy to install.

I use the Powder Pro, and i can say they are much much much better than the original ones. The sled floats better and most of all the steering is way better. My advise is to also tighten up the front damper to maximum in the skid, that way the front end lifts up alot more.

I like the look of the Simmons Gen 3's. 8" wide and that concave bottom, should work good.
