NOpe. Didnt get to see choke up close, although we took a pic thats in here that I think was of choke.I hate to admit it, but we got three quarters of the way there, and I couldnt make any further,at laest the way we went.The dunes were too steep for me on mine, I have issues with height..LOL... going down the biggest dunes are a blast, but I hate to climb them.WE rode a few good sized bowls and rode alomat all the way to the resort.And the full yoshi system paid off afterall,does much better than the slip on,five 400ex couldnt make it up thunder(back side)The 400ex could climb it even with stock tires!!Twisted...We will have to go next year, you and the wife.Im all for it.. Str8wicked~~This is in Idaho by the border of Wyoming,near Rexburg,you should try it sometime,its a blast!!!

these tires came reccomended form a shop in Rexberg, alot of them run these up there, I didnt see alot of straights I liked and was told not to run less paddles than what I got,what would you reccomend?? I need a bigger quad,Ive definatly out grown mine,thinkin on selling mine soon,just sucks w/all the $$$ I put into it in the last 6 months:(

Six paddle, six paddle, six paddle, Glider, Glider, Glider. You want the quad to rev freely and that aint happening w/ the eights...

I would have never thoguht of gliders for my 300ex, but I am getting them for my Daughters Kasea 90cc when I get the TRinity pipe put on it...I think Im done with buying tires for awhile(I hope)I am really thinking on selling it and trading up, I need more power now.But if I go duning again next spring, Ill give the gliders a try...Thanks for the advice..;)

Wow...six paddle gliders is probably less hookup than the stockers...

LOL... my stocks on the 400ex and the 300ex actually do pretty good.:)And my "turbo paddles "do awesome too.No complaints,I love my 300ex,just need more power.

Not so.. I tried my wifes on my stock Dale and climbed the steep dunes faster then my eight paddle Sand Devils at Saint Anthonys. I am gonna try the Gliders on my Dale up Utah's Sand Mtn on Labor Day. I pulled the face in third and barely could hold second w/ my Sand Devils and my pipe and Moto mapping....Couldn't hold third w/ the Sand Devils up the Valley side either.

Not so?? not sure what you meant by that, but I have to say...those Dales are very impresive up at St. A"s:) they were smokin alot of the Banshee"s up Thunder..I couldnt believe how they flew!!But really, with the 400ex,Now that the gearing is changed and a full Yoshi on it,I t will make it up alot of dunes that it wouldnt do before,that is with paddles or stock.BUT... it definatley climbs better with our paddles,I did learn NEVER to run a V paddle up there,unless you want to just play..The sand up there is VERY soft and dry right now compared to when we were up there in June.SO, if I do get another set of tires for the 400ex,what size should I go with? Couldnt find much out there,elsethey run very small or really big...My straights are 20's
