Hookworms would be the go :p :D :D

Anything with a tire tread really. Larsens or Continental Verticals :) I have found good in sand :)

Ones I have heard are good are Nokian NBXs (3 of us use them and they rock) and others swear by the Maxxis high rollers.

GF and I went out to Woodhill today, she had new continental verticals front and back, loved every minute.

I had one on the front of the Reign - loved it.

Taking into account though that Woodhill is more hardpacked sand and pine needles right now (w00t!)

So to summarise, Continental Verticals good. Tripples on hardtails bad :cool:

depends on what you're riding style is, i'm an a/m sort of bloke and i'm liking a highroller on the back and a minion on the front

my friend and i both use high rollers front and back, and both agree that they r nice grippy tires, i also ride at woodhill often and found these tyres really nice with the sand
