RD5608 8" Pair of 60° Double Down Runners for Arctic Cat Early Plastic Skis -Snowstuds Z ZR ZL ZRT Thundercat Kimpex Carbides Feature

• Completely eliminates darting on the trail
• 60° steering carbide on each of two beefy 1/2" bars per ski, stud-welded 3/8" studs
• Carbide brazed deep into the bar allowing for more miles before replacement.
• Wearpads front and back make them last longer than you would even imagine.
• Sold per pair to complete one sled.

It was unlikely that a part most snowmobilers consider a wear item would actually turn into one of the biggest game changers this sport has seen to date. As surprising as it was, the Snowstuds Double Down carbide runners did just that. In the dark days before they made their debut, darting was just as much a part of snowmobiling as blue smoke and a runny nose. It was accepted that the limiting factor for how much you could ride in a day was going to be how long your shoulders and your patience would hold up. Snowstuds wasn't satisfied with that. After testing what turned out to be about a milk crate full of prototypes they finally nailed it, the widest double runner anywhere! The sport has never been the same...

These super wide Double Down runners will have you steering straighter with less effort and more confidence. That same wide spacing is what helps you carve tight turns, the Achilles heel of most other double runner designs. For 7 years now the Double Down runners have been redefining what the term handling means to snowmobilers, why not see the difference for yourself?
