I need some info on what kind of paddles i should get, i want a kind of aggressive paddle for good hook-up, but dont want to sacrafice speed with a big bulky tire.

I will be in soft fluffy sand on the oregon dunes, winchester,florence,sandlake,ect... I like hill climbing, tree shots,and going fast

Im stuck between, skat-track 8 or 10 paddle haulers, skat-track edge 8paddle (v-blade type), sand star or sand shark

also i seen kenda has got a dune runner paddle tire and it looks just like a hauler, anybody using those cuz there like less than half the price of a hauler.

Oh and they would be going on a trx450r:muscle:

Haulers are the way to go if you want a straight paddle and sandstars if you want a v-shaped paddle. The sandstar will turn a little smoother and the hauler will hook better in the drags and hillclimbs. Dont get sand geckos heavy as sh#t..

+1 about the gecko's. I bought a pair fro my 400ex and used them once. Sold them for a profit though

Agreed, the gecko's are heavy trash.
My friend picked up a set and realized he made a mistake after riding my AMS Sidewinders (Sandstar clones)

so far ive owned:
21x10x8 8paddle haulers
20x10x9 9paddle haulers
20x10x9 10paddle extreme haulers
20" sand stars
and now i have some 20x10x10 10paddle edge tires. the edge tires are by far the best yet, but the 8paddle 21" tires were the best for dragging (light and they spun just the right amount for some 2nd gear starts)
