8 inch sly dogs

[robosledder]

just ordered a set of 8 inch sly dogs for my 2012 1100 turbo i hope i made the right choice

I think I'm gonna go 7"

I'm running them on mine and they are night and day over stock ones. I would recommend doing the cut out on them. It doesnt effect the performance but it helps for side hilling.

 

[mynewuseddoo]

The cut makes a noticeable difference from the original PH ski mold?

I have been running both for years the 7" and th PH 8"
what is this cutout all about?

S/C

 

[mynewuseddoo]

I think it's been referred to as the "Carl's mod". Cutting the outer rear edge of the ski to make the rear of the ski narrower.

 

[Sage Crusher]

Mmmmm have to look into that one.
Cutting a$400.00 pair of skis will have to really make a difference.
The sly dogs are great on the T 1100.

I just secured a pair of black on black 7"!!! can't wait to try them!

 

[Sage Crusher]

Awe you will enjoy them enough to buy the PH next go around and compair. I like the 8" in the fluff but the 7" are far better on the triail 4 sure

Yeah I figured the 7" would be a better all snow condition choice.

Yeah I figured the 7" would be a better all snow condition choice.

Shoulda got the 8" I did NOT like my 7", the 7s flex like no tomorrow, and didn't really impress me over stock. The 8s have a deeper keel and I found them to turn better and they are awesome in deep snow.

If you are riding deep powder, go with the 8's. My M1100T is a nose heavy b*tch and you need the extra inch to keep the front end from dumptrucking. I did the Carl's cut also. Unbelievable difference.

i just put the 7" on my assault i'm hoping they work better than the c&a xtx i had on there.
