Bush (spring) gear questions

[avidflyer]

Hi all, I've been thinking about getting this gear for my Avid MK IV. I do fly all winter long on skis though, and was wondering if that will present much of a problem. The gear legs are longer than the standard gear, so I'm thinking the skis will put more strain with the added leverage on the gear and gear attach points, ect. Anyone have any thoughts about this? Thanks, Jim Chuk

The cabine style gear from Airdale has been through ski testing and works great. The added length adds to the angle of attack on the ground and aids in the takeoff and landings.

Is it any longer or wider than the Avid "bungee wide gear" ? If not, I have beat the crud out of my wide gear on ski's with no issues. I am about to pull the trigger on the spring gear I think.

The Airdale cabine gear is made on the same jig as the "wide" Avid gear.
