Mike,

I asked if you got that at Bennington, because I saw it's mate there (but I guess it was the same one). I bought a bunch of stuff from the guy who had it and, honestly, picked that ski up and put it in the pile I was building. I asked him what he knew about it and he had nothing. As was suggested on the classifieds forum (where you first posted it), I was thinking about grabbing it and having a another one made to match. In the end, after LONG consideration, I ended up putting it back. My concern was that it was really short in length; didn't seem to be enough surface area to displace the weight of the front end ABOVE the snow and I thought it would simply dig in. Wasn't going to go to the trouble and expense of making one before I knew it would really work as well as one of the traditional kits. Bob McDonald (a Snowmobile guy who is on this forum regularly) may be able to tell you more about what you have and how well that design would perform before you spend $ on a match or have one made. Good luck!
