Thinking of getting a set of paddles to deal with the snow. Anyone have any thoughts on this. I'm thinking as long as I don't run them on dry roads I'll be fine ???

I had always thought about getting paddles for the snow too.
Snow seems to be more brutal than sand.
I'm interested to see what kind of reponses you get for this thread...

I wouldn't use paddles in the snow. Once you spin through to the bare ground, it would probably rip the paddles off of the tire pretty easily. Try a set of realtors for the snow, they are kind of like paddles, but made for dirt and mud (plus they are taller and wider). Terrian Tracks made buy Skat Track would be another suggestion, they are kind of like paddles and I've seen those used on the coal hills, so they will hold up well.

i have used my sand paddles in the snow and they work great. as long as you dont get onto bare ground like was stated before.
the faster i went i was able to get up on the snow better. did lots of hill climbs and drag racing, with them on.
