I am going to be ordering carbides soon in either 8" 9" or 10". They are going to be used for glare ice riding and was wondering what brand/size do you think work best (XC700 with 144 studs). Thanks!

For ice riding I don't think 2 inches will make a big difference. The 144 studs will obviously help with traction. I'd take the 10". I personally use 6" studboy's on my slydog powderhounds on my F7.

I'm using 6" Stud Boy Shaper Bars on my SlyDog trail skis. Plenty of grab. Now my riding is not really glare ice riding, so I'm not really sure what I'd recommend for that.
