Simmons Gen I vs Gen II
- Thread starter edge835
- Start date
Stock skis are better that Gen I. Need to max out the front shocks for better trail riding and boondocking. Gen I IMO are not very good in the powder. Stock skis float pretty well. If they dont, adjust your transfer.
I have no experience with GenII.
Good luck

I bought gen I s which I use for spring conditions and swap back to the stockers for the mid-winter dry pow. The Simmons don't float as well but do a much better job tracking where you want to go, and IMO they don't waste the steering bushings as fast as the aggresive stockers. Never tried the Gen IIs.

If your the type of rider who takes a 10 mile trail to get to off trail and you primarily ride off trail, the Gen II's are the ticket. I've riden 2 different Nytro's with different ski's, both seemed darty/tippy to me. Gen II's would be the first addition if I ran that sled. If your a trail rider, Gen I would be fine.
I have always ran simmons skis but these Gen II skis are even better, especially for the four strokes with the heavy front ends.
I have a TApex and love my Gen II skis.

Gen 2's on the nytro are awesome. almost confidence inspiring in a way.
If you are off the throttle thats when the stock skis are a big joke, throw snow over like crazy, and on the trail they dart all over the place
