On an 800,850 or 900t they just aren't aggressive enough to get the power down. Put a Rip2 or Storm on any of those sleds I listed and they're a completely different animal. Yeah ripsaw is shit. This sled came with a rip2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rip 2 out performs it everywhere and lasts long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its so fucking stupid I just cant take it. The rip2 was designed for those fat pig 4stroke yamahas and their shitty skis to help the back end slide around better. So in essence the rip1 had too much grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Studded and railed on it for 2000 or so miles on a super fast, 800 sub-hyper sled!!!. Not a tear in it......when I parted the sled out.

Well if they were riding more off trail or hero snow I could maybe understand but then again a rip2 would still be inadequate for off trail. My etec pulled the skis in the air with the rip1 and smoked bussmans f7 so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rip one is a solid, lightweight performance track. The Rip two is just sturdier. I'd like to see who could tell the difference in these tracks when riding. Answer: Nobody. Now...jump to a cobra or something else, sure. Characteristics change. My SX track took a minute or two for me to adjust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can see that its definitely not as durable, its much softer than the rip2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't made for that terrain or that kind of riding. The right tool for the right job! LOL...I had one of his lugs fly off and hit me right in the neck once. I thought it was a rock but when we stopped...it was wedged under my crotch! Yuh...it left a mark (on my neck..not my crotch). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f7ben Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 The ripsaw1 is a banana peel of a track. It hooks for absolute shit on any good running 800 or up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
