907banshee Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 i just moved to alaska and its goin start to snow in october... So i wanna ride year round and was wondering if like dune paddle tires would work for snow?? like i know they have the 4sno tires and the zipper but i hear that the actual dune tires work better?? is it true?

907banshee Posted August 20, 2008 Author Report Posted August 20, 2008 get a sled.. you start having problems in snow on a quad past about a foot... even with paddles yes paddles work, i suggest a form paddle ( like a maxxis 4 snow) and not a tire like a skat trak but once i sell/trade to get a sled i have no quad im young and got no job hahaha.... what would happen with the skat trks one??

bronco91shee Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 i run my paddle masters in teh snow when it gets much beyond like 5 or 6 inches here. but the other guys is right. much past a foot or foot and a half os snow, and there just isnt enough ground clearance. iw ould say get a cheap sled as well. and try to keep the shee for the summer months. but i doubt a shee will do anything in the winter up thre. but idk, i havent been there yet, but it is on my life's TO DO list.

Frogger Posted August 20, 2008 Report Posted August 20, 2008 I have some friends that ride some ski resorts once their closed for the season. That's all packed so I'm sure it's different. Quote
