Iv got hole shots and another par that are really similar and like them more than the directional set I had when I bought the bike... They allow you to play around slip and slide some but wheelie on the sand ... The directional a I had hooked to good and wanted to wheelie all the time so I couldn't drift ar do doughnuts lol I try to make sure I run a couple sizes taller in the front so my frame has a rake to it and help with Caster a little ... I know this is all a personal preference so my advice is try as many different styles as you can and learn what works best for you... Hope this helps
