I'm "looking" at the idea of going with new paddles.  I'm lost on what ones would be the way to go.  I see the ever famous hauler, the hauler extreme and someone was saying something about an ultralight but I do not know who that is made by.

I run 22x11x8 Hualer 7 paddles.  But you got way more HP, so I would think 21x10x8 Hualer 10 paddles would hook nicely.  Also gonna depend on the sand.  MI and CO sand is wetter than Socal/ID/UT sand.

MI sand is sugar sand. It wasn't wet anywhere except for the drag strip last year.

I was going to keep them for Jenee's quad.  But I wanted to look at a better paddle for my set up.  I just don't know which one.

I also see a skat-trak ripper for higher HP quads.

I sent an email to 07SERaptor (Kyle).  He's rappy is ~equal to yours for power. I'll find out what he's running.  My only concern is that you got about 100lbs on him, but he might have a good suggestion to adjust for that.

I think it depends on what you're looking for.. I mean, if you're looking to go straight paddle.

Skat Traks are by far one of the leading brands out there.

RockyMountain Sells Haulers (a knock off of Skat trak haulers)



I think your best bet is the Extreme's because the regular Skat Haulers are made more for 350cc-450cc machines.

Thats what I was thinking.  I like my sand stars but I do want to put the power to the ground.  My only concern is the "duneability" of a straight paddle.

When I was at the silver lake rally last year, I had talked to quite a few people about their straight paddles and they didn't seem to have any issues. I know when I was looking into paddles just over a year ago, I heard people say that straight paddles were tough to turn but from what I witnessed, didn't seem like anyone really had any issues turning with them that I saw...

If I can find a cheap set of paddles (skats) I'll be buying them, but if not, I'll be rockin my sandstars :) :thumbs:
