bring it in the trees and we will see how u do but great vid like it and the song

[VWGOLFGTI20VT]

do you think my 2008 summit 800r 151" track can go were your apex goes?

[yamadoo04]

@VWGOLFGTI20VT

Only where the stock Apex Goes :) It should go higher and better than the stock Apex, But It wont go where the Turboed Apex goes :)

[adrenalinejunky99]

@VWGOLFGTI20VT they dont even make the 2008 summit 151. the rev chassis was built until 2007 and that came in the 151, but the XP came out in 2008 and that came with the 146 or 154, no 151.

[VWGOLFGTI20VT]

boondocking means using nitrious? right

[PUREpowderIQ07]

@VWGOLFGTI20VT no? lol deep riding in the trees, that's boondocking 

[arasaka2020tm]

@VWGOLFGTI20VT

No, Its about what you do, not what you ride

[yamaharider512]

i like how at 00:48 the music picked up its speed when you started to throw your sled over again

[sledtv1]

Nice video.

[Hamiflyfish]

Sweet video. Good riding, That snow looked perfect.

[matssk]

whats the name of that song?

[Turbojeep23]

apex's are awesome sleds, my friend bought one last year.

but i think they are just too heavy, especially if you were to get stuck in the powder. i'll stick with the nice and light 2 strokes.

[yamadoo04]

Yes they are definately heavy when you get stuck but once your turbo it you dont have to worry about getting stuck anymore. Oh and if you do, its time to break out the shovels. :)

[nikstiks]

@yamadoo04 I just use a highjacker to get out works a treat.

[nikstiks]

@Turbojeep23 you can get the apex pretty light, mine is the same weight as a 1000 skidoo. Took out over 80 pounds of weight from it. But it does cost to do it.

[thierracing]

great song choice fits it perfect

[thierracing]

this one goes in the favs

[MrSuell]

Nice video :)) I miss my Apex / Warrior. Best snowmobil I ever driven.............

[patrick4758]

Hey very nice video man. Do those goggle helmets work pretty well? I'm so tired of using a full face one because it always fogs up. Anyways let me know. Maybe show me a picture of the one you have?

[yamadoo04]

I use the Scott Turbo Flow goggles with the quick straps. Works great and is a must have for those powder days.

[yamadoo04]

If you look up yamadoo04 on Photobucket and look at the picture album for snowmobiling 09 you can see a picture of what i use.

[absentimental69]

dude amazing love the feeling of the powder crashing over and being under the snow its amazing feeling hello from the kootaneys in british colombia amazing terrain cant wait for summer to be over lol getting a new sled

[HepatitusJay]

I've tried that kinda stuff , just can't seem to get it down . I usually end up biting it or falling off . Should i look with both feet planted , or kneeling ? I'm more of a jump special .

[yamadoo04]

I try to keep both feet planted. Sometimes I will bring both legs onto the same side of the sled but I hardly kneel on the seat. Remeber to counter steer.

[HepatitusJay]

Thanks , oh and one more question . What size track are you using ?

[yamadoo04]

It is the stock track so I believe it is the 16" w x 162" L x 2.25" H

[yamadoo04]

Its not too tough once you get the hang of it. Ita all about balanace, timing, & throttle. Once you get it down it becomes really easy but does get you tired. It does take effort. A key thing to do is counter steer. The best way for me to describe it is when I am going to puill it over, I lean, hit the throttle, and steer the opposite way i want to go all at the same time.

[POLARISAllday54]

thanks for the tips

yeah cant wait till my trip next year to canada and yellowstone lookin forward to it

by the way where did you film this

[yamadoo04]

In Central Utah

[POLARISAllday54]

is boondocking tough why i ask is cuz i live in ill and dont ever get any of that shit and you make it so easy but is it really?

[atvking04032]

that is so nasty

[rhockeydude10]

that was BEAuuuuuuutiful

[yamahariderguy38]

nice vid

[adrenalinejunkie15]

thats some wicked snow there....where is it that you're riding?

[nightsniper101]

awesome video, same with your other videos to. im gettin a phazer MTX for next winter.

[yamadoo04]

Thats cool. Thanks, Hopefully I will be able to get up other videos soon. I have more footage this year that I would like to put together. I noticed on a message I got you asked what I used for slomotion. I use Final Cut Pro to edit my stuff and used that program for the slowmotion parts.

[nightsniper101]

ok cool, cant wait to see them. thanks for the video editor to.

[mainejits]

nice riding, nice song! how much powder was out there that day?

[yamadoo04]

There was a good 3 feet of fresh powder

[FactoryConnection661]

great sled! my uncele has the Apex RTX 04 but its black with the red flames. theyre so sleek looking and such great throttle response! and cheers to you for great bonndocking skills id like to ride with you some time but im afraid youd put my 03 zr 600 to shame lol! cheers from all us slednecks in Canada from the maritimes!!

[80h4thephaze]

what song?

[yamadoo04]

It is Hemorrhage(in my hands) by Fuel

[thedudefromthewoods]

oh ok if i ever get a new sled im definitely getting a apex.

do you happen to know what it costs to turbo and intercool one of these?

[yamadoo04]

I think it cost my dad around $6,000.00 to get it all set up. Oh and look into the Nytro before you buy an Apex. Those are supposed to be pretty awesome as well. My dad just dropped his off to get turboed for this year. Should be pretty fun if the snow ever starts to fall.

[thedudefromthewoods]

how big of a difference does it make when you throw a turbo on one of those? is it just a couple of hp or enough to surprise the hell out of you if your not used to it?

awesome vids by the way!

[yamadoo04]

Yes it does make a big difference. There are many hills that my dad could make it to the top and I couldn't get halfway up without track poaching. Get one. You'll love it.

[gggrimmm]

Needs a turbo....awsome pow, I'm jealous.

[yamadoo04]

Yeah I know. I wish I could ride a turbo all the time but my dad gets to ride the turboed sled.
