Co-founder of the revolutionary Glyde skid, Tyson Thomas has equally represented the snowmobile industry alongside his son Justin. Together, they've developed the leading skid hardware used by recreational enthusiasts to seasoned professionals throughout the globe.
Tyson helped mold Justin's professional career at a young age, trekking to the backcountry and RMSHA circuits around the country. Now at the peak of their success after decades of mastery, Tyson and Justin are producing the industry-leading standard.
Easily adjust the skid to your rider preferences in minutes no matter where you are. One of the most fun and powerful adjustments comes with our quick-link rear link torsion rod adjustment. Simply rotating this shaft can adjust your sled from planted to wheelie monster.
This allows you to have one sled that can excel in playfulness, and within minutes can climb the gnarliest chutes in North America.
While our skid comes with our backcountry-proven settings, a few minutes with a wrench can completely change the ride from aggressive/planted to playful and light, all while keeping a plush ride for the Ultimate Comfort.
SPECIFICATIONS
Love the trail ride in! One of the main focuses in the development of the TRF Glyde ONE skid was to exceed the capacities of OEM skids in the backcountry WHILE providing trail-sled characteristics for the ride in.
Expect a smooth, comfortable ride on the trails, with an improvement in steering response and a decrease in "push".
Know that your expectations in backcountry performance will be blown!
Custom-built rails, engineered to compliment the TRF suspension. The rails feature a more aggressive tip bend, eliminating the need to run an anti-stab kit while providing a playful and light feeling.
The TRF Glyde ONE skid has seen several seasons of RMSHA punishment from a variety of racers across all OEM's. Extruded alumimum rails provide the protection to take on stumps, logs and rocks. Billet cross-link and hardware have been beefed up for the most demanding riders. This kit utilizes the IceAge HellFire wheel to further the durability!
Skid rails are able to flex and conform to terrain. A longer torque arm provides a confidence-inspiring ride without the washing out or feeling unstable.
Because of the engineered flex and custom-built rails, you can keep the feeling of a shorter sled while gaining the benefits of a longer track.
It only takes one ride to see how this skid changes you as a rider. The combination of controlled flex and lengthened torque arm forces the sled to stick to the mountain.
We focus the flex on the front of the track with increasing resistance, the further you get into the stroke. This provides positive rider-feel without instability or "washout".
The TFY Glyde ONE is a complete rear skid.
Inside the box, you'll find a complete rear skid, assembled and ready to install. It includes custom TRF-profile rails with hyfax, mounting hardware, shocks and wheels.
It will utilize your existing track.
