Dragon Feethooker are here! Foot board traction

meathooker · Dec 31, 2008

Hello All,

Here are the Meethooker Feethookers for Dragons. These are reduce snow build up on your running boards while greatly increasing traction!

Here are a few key design features that make these the BEST boards for your sled:

Pre-located holes for east rivet layout
Superior tooth design for the ultimate in traction
Front opening has no traction teeth, 2nd and 3rd have rear-ward facing teeth to aid in traction while allowing easy exiting of footwell area! (see pics)
Others have teeth that stick up above the outer edge which doesn't allow the rider to feel the edge; reducing traction and confidence. Feethookers are approx 1/16th lower than the edge. This gives you the best of both worlds: increased traction AND the use of the outer rail.

Last but not least these are the BEST value: $150 and that includes powder coating, and shipping!! (ad $15 for canada)

PM me if you have any questions or to place an order. The first run will be shipping next Friday.

Thanks for looking!

look like better board knock offs.

meathooker · Dec 31, 2008

The size and shape are the same as they fit the same sled. As the top post said they are improved in several ways. And of course much more affordable

There is NO HONOR AMONGST THEIVES!!!

It just proves that if you build it....

Someone will build it and sell it cheaper just to undercut ya!!

It's good to have another option and choice. Better Boards weren't the original either.

^^ what he said..

there is always going to be a similar product on the market..its nice to get more options..

dont get me wrong i think F-BOMB is flat out the best guy i have ever dealt with and his better boards worked flawlessly..

its hard to deviate from the original design on anything..as long as they are getting better and work great then who cares..

no different then the front bumpers..just depends on the color styles, price and customer service..right??

OK, I'll bite....my IQ boards are like standing on ice covered railroad ties so I need something better.

Any installed photos?

Anybody used these yet?

I've got a set on my sled, but mine is on an IQ racer.
They work awesome. when I carve through the powder and set my foot back down the snow just gets pushed through the holes and I have traction, I don't even think about it.

Won't get into a brand discussion but some type of "boards" are a must have for a sled. I'm running Better Boards purchased from Carl's Cycle, wish I'd bought some last year. The treads are the same height as the outer edge and have cleats to the footwell except for the last hole on the Carl's version. These look very similar.

Unless it's patented, it's free game. As a consumer, we all love competition because it forces better prices.

I read the post and figured out that the cleats are slightly lower and the front 2 cleats face backwards. This is the part that I really like as it would definitely prevent your foot from getting caught.

Besides who cares? Rob will come up with the next whiz bang thing and make money off it before the others come imitating..
Correct: Robs were not the first. They were even named because they werent the first. "Better Boards" he built them because they were a "Better" solution. These seem to be different in a few ways but they are VERY similar. I can pretty much promise the next version of the "Better Boards" will have improvements. I doubt Rob will care much. Hes a pretty smart guy!!

These running boards have had a good reception from iqr crowd and if you take a look in his post the the racing section on this site he is more detailed about some of the things that are different or improved on compared to other boards on the market

PooSlinger · Jan 5, 2009

I've had my foot trapped in the other boards before. I thought I blew my knee out. I like the fact the first two flares are reversed on these. May have to try a pair.

wasatchrider · Jan 5, 2009

its kind of funny they are built so you feet to get caught and the are called feethookers

wyoyami222 · Jan 5, 2009

As you can see in the first post the located mounting holes, tread design, tread height, and price.

Are you interested in a set; we could trade for some vents :face-icon-small-ton

Clarke673 · Jan 6, 2009

Hey mh, I want some 4 my IQR. Could i get a set that has shorter raised tabs that are NOT sharpened?

I wreck a lot and i really don’t want to loose a knee cap.

Also, i need the ones that will fit with a stock 121 rear sus.

How do you go about ordering these is there a number you can call.

PalousePoo · Jan 8, 2009

The first hole looks good and large. I also like the improvements you listed. Need to see an install pic. Could the teeth be too sharp and chew up boots quickly?? Props to you.
