Snow eliminators or Better Boards - wil increase traction and redue snow build up on the boards

If ur on a budget rivets from the bottom work pretty well

what do you think of these home made strips? im 14, it took 30 min, and $15.

looks like it would add some good traction steels pretty heavy though. Could cut some "teeth" into each piece

And you can buy tubes with traction that go over the tubes on the edge of the running board. Makes a big difference

What sled neck said! =P

Cutting teeth into them might be a good idea.

I guess it depends on how quickly you need them. I am a few weeks away from my grand opening sale, and I will have a set of boards for your sled for about $150 Canadian. My boards also tie into the front 5 rivets which is a weak spot on your tunnel. Of course they are powder coated in either black or red, and have all the colored rivets and directions. Would be similar to the better board, just made north of the board (notice the little joke).

The simplest and easiest is sometimes right in front of you.

Phone Marathon decks and buy two strips of superglides for $10 bucks each.

Trim to fit board and rivet or bold on.

Voila!

Under thirty bucks total and you will have superior grip with light weight results.

Cheap but they work.
