<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]--> For what its worth, I have found thru personal experience the tire pressure  can have a serious effect on ground handling.

I agree Dee, When I bought my fox 4 my flight instructor made  me take my pants off   

  Wheel pants that is... He said takem off or they might  get knocked off... When we got them off the pressure looked very low in the  tires... We aired them up to a nice solid sidewall appearence. I did appx 10  squirrely hours with 15-20 psi in them and a fellow kitfoxer heard me complain  about it being squirrely on the ground. He told me that I should purchase an ATV  air pressure guage and have no more then 7 psi in the tires. After learning with  too much air in the tires, having 7 psi suddenly makes groundhandling easy...My  observation...  Steve Bennett  n109BB  North  Carolina

I'll definately copy that.......I have a moele III  and I run 8 pounds after trying to taxi/land with 15 pounds. I found as much as  2 pounds of air can make a difference.

I measured the toe on my Skis today , damn things are so loose on axles it varied between 1 " toe in to  zero toe.  



Flys fine and i guess the skis a little more forgiving.
