best aftermarket ski for Viper

[Tomkat700]

From what I have read from various reviews the ski's are too narrow for the new Viper. I'm thinking of trying the Mohawk, but was wondering what you guys were thinking of using? I ride in Co and Wyoming in deep powder and trees.

i have heard that the skies that were on the demos are not the ones coming with the 2015 production sleds,but cannot confirm what they are coming with.so many skies so many opinions lol

That's good to know I will hold off on ordering skis and see what it shows up with.

The prototype I rode had powder pros on it and they worked pretty well in the snow we rode that day.

Probably worth holding off on buying until we see EXACTLY what the sleds will be shipped with.

Powder pros are severe and make the steering feel heavy. The Viper Mountain is easy to steer so severe ski is not needed in my opinion. I took them off and put Polaris Gripper skis on and really like them. All you have to do is drill the bushing for the larger mounting bolt and put a spacer between the spindle and ski. Of course I spacered it so the skis are now 37 inch wide.

If on the cheap these Camoplast all terrain skis are 7 inch wide and can be bought for about 200 bucks delivered. Some small modifications needed for fit

Wait and see what they come with and try them first. May not need any unless they stick the Cat ski on.

Yep, Cat narrow ski + 4 stroke braking + downhill powder = white out.
