Powder Pro vs. Pilot 6.9 on a Rev

[Reeb]

Only ridden one Rev with PP's on it, can't really remember how it handled. Tried em on a XP, did not like one bit.

I have Simmons on the rev I just picked up and although they are a good ski, not what I'm looking for outta this thing. I was going to order up some Pilots but since I have PP's on my Cat and love them, what is everyone's thoughts?

my brother and dad both have simmons and i dont ovely care for them. But i have some slydog powderhound and they are the bomb. i like mine way more. so i suggest getting some from them and you get to do some color color jobs on them. hope this helps

Have run most of the popular skis, including all those mentioned here so far. My favorite is the SLP SLT with the anti-dart wings.....best for both on and off trail for REV and XP IMO.

I liked my Pilots, but I switched to powderpros when I damaged my pilots. I really like them off the trail and in the powder (of course), on the trail they aren't to bad definitely darty but I don't know how much it is the skis and how much it is my bent nun. (one ski sits about 6" ahead of the other) I got the 60 degree longer carbide as well. I've been thinking about doing the mod to them but haven't yet as I've found I have a harder time getting them to turn over then my pilots, but an easier time keeping them there. (this is on a 07 rev 151 w/no sway bar, holz arms and a zbros shocks)

hope this helps.

I have Nextech CF arms(stock length) with the swaybar removed and stock X shocks. Thinking of replacing the swaybar or buying floats. There are times I love when the sled sets into a hill and the ease of movement, but I never did have a problem with the swaybar in the first place. Little more input and I've been gold.
SLT's eh Paul? I'l have to look into them a bit more. Always went directly to the PP's.

I like PP when its deep and or soft.
Pilots when its not (PP's too much of a handfull then)
Simmons when its fairlly hard/spring conditions
