Best price / best ski for off trail ..

What are you running likes and dislikes ?

Gripper from a pro? Someone once said was a good ski, would like a second opinion .

Grippers, DS2-3 for the $$. Mohawks are nice but a little more $.

What mounting hard wear would I need for a gripper ski?

I read all the posts and tests and went from Mods to the Poo Grippers. It was a big improvement both on and off trail I would highly recommend these skis. I picked a brand new take off set complete with runners and bolts for $200. Can't beat that for new skis.

I second this question?? Do they just bolt up and you're good to go? Or any modifications required? The link someone posted was mainly discussing the rubber pad not the mounting.

Yeah there are definitely a lot of these available around! So did yours just bolt right up?

You use the poo bolt (wider ski, longer bolt) and you need a spacer. The washers from outside of the doo ski do the trick, but Bparks makes a bushing set that works perfectly for this and allows you to center the ski if you want (as well as A arm bushings that work WAAY better than the stock junk).
