EC Skid Plate

[cdn280]

Being totally disappointed in the CRD skid model that has to be the dumbest design ever (hooks on the back side of the frame so when you hit the front the back falls off were it hooks on in the wrong direction), I'm looking for a replacement.
Any comments on these for slipping over logs/rocks ?

(a lot cheaper than the others)

or Scorpion

or Hyde plastic

or??

I've never ridden with a plastic bash plate before, is it too slippery and slides off when perched precariously on a wet log/rock ? The reduced noise factor is a nice benefit though.

I still believe the Mecasystem is the best.

I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say you're a Canadian...

Scorpion is made right here in BC a IMHO is the best. Go figure eh?

I'm already leaning that way bro. The Meca is polished pretty (but not for long) and probably lighter but it doesn't show how its mounted and with all those holes I'd probably be pulling out tons of sticks and debris. My money may stay in Canada this time.
I dig the HD mounts and smooth bottomside hardware.

I have the Scorpion, it's nice despite being Canuckistainian

I went to scorpion after using the Hyde combo. Steve Vanderhelm was a fellow racer and knows the value of keeping the bike going through the worst of it!
The hyde offered nice pipe and case protection but didn't save the frame rails from munching or from filling up with 40# of mud...
