i've seen this several times, i don't see any special hill climbing happening but i do see a lot of sand flying, even on the driver. what did see that seemed to help was a set of the razors up front and this lady went in to a bowl and you could see those things actually help pull her quad out and i didn't see sand getting thrown all over her.

I saw this on a scrammy but it seems like a gimmick cause if you go up a steep hill there's not much weight on the front and scrammy's are not made for dunes anyway, but he got a lot of looks.

i was out at the dunes a few weeks ago and i saw the stranges thing, there was a guy on a utility 4x4 quad with 4 paddle tires. they were GBC sand sharks by the look of em. has ne body in here every done that? i realize that it makes sense for a 4x4 to have 4 paddles, but what about handling? he could probably power up ne hill in 1st gear, but could he do donuts if he wanted to?

ya, razors in front seems to make more sense than paddles. when i saw the guy he was riding right along the edge of the ocean, so the sand was wet and hard so it wasnt' flying.
