Check your skis!

So I was putting the garbage out today for collection and found a piece of runner on the ground. Thought I beeter check the skis on both sleds. Hoping it wasnt the new one, and I def figgured it would be off the old one. Flipped the new one on it side and found the only thing left of the steel runners was the studs. Glad I found that piece today. I had bought the cheap steel ones and installed them instead of the carbides that came with the sled but didnt think they would wear that quick. Put the new carbides on this afternoon but the skis are worn down a bit. Probably have to replace them next season now.

how old is the sled? a few clicks of rocks/mud will destroy a set of skegs in the spring

2012 with 700 kms on it. Too much riding on my driveway didnt help things.

Just move to where there is snow all season long.

I have a set of carbides (brand new) that I'd give you a deal on as I use the mild steel runners.....just saying

We got a set of those for moving sleds around this year and let me tell you those things flat out work!!!! We wanted to try them out for a year before we made the decision as to whether or not to retail them or not.
