154 or 163

[Powdown]

What do u think go 154 or 163 which is better for boondocking and is the extra track nessisary for the deep Pow???

I went with the 155 when I ordered my Dragon 800. The 163 would be nice to have about 3 times in the whole season. We are now getting to the part of the season where a 121 can go just about anywhere.

154 will be big enough!

I went from a 151 to a 162. I miss the 151. The 162 has better flotation, but doesn't handle quite the same and is worse for jumping.

Unless you plan on going slow in deeeep powder or doing a lot of highmarking, I'd go for the shorter track.

150-156 is awesome IMO. Being 6'4" and 265 lbs out of the shower there are probably more times that I might wish I had a 160+ but the shorter tracks are just too much fun!

Are you into just boondocking or do you like to hillclimb a lot. I had a 136 on my sled and i put a 144 on it because i wanted a longer track for deep snow but short enough to be able to jump with but i wish i got a 151 now. I think the next sled I get will have a 153 for sure.

I had a 151 on my sled and it performed good in all conditions, I like to hillclimb so now I am running a 162x16 and love it. Although for general riding my next sled will probably be a 144 or 150 something depending on brand.
