Default 07 450 sxf sand paddle

I live in central cali and occasionally ride at pismo beach. What would you guys suggest the best paddle would be for that type of sand and riding?

When I rode Glamis on my 2 smokers, I always used an 8 cup/scoop paddle.

On a 4 stroke, that is a different beast.

4 stroke have a more linear powerband, and you might be able to use
a 6 cup tire (less $$).

hey there you got skat trac down the road in cali they can custom build ya a paddle from old dirt tires, or dune king molded, the skats are lighter, and have better hook up like the viper. I have a 2011 450 exc and use the 8 cup, I would't go any more, it works great in hole shots and trails. Six cups are better if wide open, but if long hill climbs go with the 8
