Does anyone have experience with either SCHWALBE Ice Spiker Pro HS 379 Studded or Hans Dampf Snake Skin tires ?
Trying to decide what works best on a 29er this time of year on North Jeresy trails.
 
i run the hans dampf as a rear tire year round, i dont recommend it on the front tho.

No troubles in the snow, however NJ doesnt really get enough snow to justify a dedicated set of 'winter' tires IMO
 
I went with the Ice Spiker Pros. I had the original wheeelset from before I upgraded so I put them on there. Been out a few times and I don't regret the price tag. Grip is so much better than anything I have tried before. Best in packed snow especially if there are icy sections underneath. I had to put 25 miles of road riding to seat the spikes, but it's all good.
