Anyone running USI triple threats on a dragon?

I'm in need of some new skis for my dragon. Love my grippers, but would like to try something different, and want a white ski if I'm replacing them. Looking at USI triple threats. Anyone using them on a dragon? Are they a good ski? Found good reviews of them on other sleds. But couldn't find much of them on the dragons. Who's running them? Good? Bad?

I hate the carbides on these skis! They stick to everything and will chew up anything that is not snow. Getting the thing onto a trailer can prove difficult because they hang up on everything. Other than that they are ok. I wouldn't buy them again though just because of the carbides. This was on a RMK 900 though. Just my .02.

Interesting issue. Seems it could be fixed with different carbides? Anybody else?

I gave some to my buddy after buying a used sled that already them on thinking they wouldn't be very good and hearing how the PP's were the ski to have. I took them off and bought PP"s. Stupid move, those skis are awesome when I rode my buddies sled. Coulda saved myself 3.5 bones. These are on a 900 though not a dragon but they work real well. No problems loading, carbides, etc. My guess is that they would work real well on the RAW chassis. They really shine off-trail.

I have them on my 05 900 turbo, 09 dragon 163 and 09 assault 146...i love them...i have stage 3 on all sleds and i chose the aggressive shaper bars and 6" carbides...personally though i originally just chose them because they were the only company that had white in stock, but i am def happy, although to be completely honest iv run powder pros, carls modded powder pros, simmons gen 1 and 2, and the USI's and i dont think any of them outshine the other...just my .02
