Chad modified his Traxxas Slash by adding Dubro Snowbird Skiis (black also available). The included hardware makes it easy to gear the skis up on the existing steering axle using the collar. To prevent the skis from pitching into the snow, Chad added Team Associated 1/4 ounce stick-on weights to the back of each ski.
The video shows two tire types, the first segment the truck was equipped with HPI Mud Thrasher monster truck tires. Their large diameter and wide track gave the truck a snow-shoe effect and seem to work well.
Later in the video the tires were swapped out for Pro-line SandPaws which provided much more forward traction, but the smaller footprint and paddles seemed to dig down much faster and getting stuck was easier.
The snow is very wet and heavy in this video. Better performance will be seen in harder packed and drier snow.

What are rear wheels???

@marshallrc79 In the field, they are Wheely King tires from HPI. On the parking lot, they are Proline paddle tires.
