  • Dude< I just got back from steamboat, and i should have watched this before i went, my body is soo sore and I obviously have no idea what i am doing. Does the suspensions of the sled matter cause i felt like the suspensions was so stiff i couldn't transfer the my weight.??

  • So what is the strap for in the middle of the bars?

  • Good instruction, wretched music.

  • hey im a little underweight. is there anything I could do to my sled to help sidehill/carve? like skis?sway bar?

  • @RumfordSledhead Anyone?

  • you sound exactly like steve zahn

  • wrong foot forward, rules!!!

  • hey i know you switched to yamaha.. but did you have any luck with your 2008 xp 800? everybody said the clutches are bad engine are bad and what not is this stuff true? im looking at a 2008 xp 800 154 with 600 miles on it and i was wondering if i should take that over a 09 600 146 with 300 miles.. whats your opinion on those two options? does the xp hold up better than what people say?or does it just matter how you ride them or treat them? thanks you!

  • How deep does the snow have too be to be able to sidehill properly? And, if i have a sled with and older chassis, does that make it harder to sidehill?

  • left hand throttle

  • If your lighter than your is that beater for sidehilling or if you are heavyer is it beter

  • do you have to have a light sled to side hill?

  • So does having handle bar risers make this easier?? and can you do this in any kind of snow and depths or do you need feet of snow to do this??

  • hey thanks a lot, been trying to see how ppl do this for a while, subscribed

  • its similar to riding a bike if it leans too far into the hill then you have to turn into the hill and you cant do this without deep powder that inside ski needs somewhere to sink

  • hey so you guys got a tip for navigating tight trees at high speeds??? Tight as in barley wide enough for your skis to get through

  • Is your sled stock? or a mod, what mods does it have?

  • sick video!!!=sub!!!!!! add me as a friend!!!

  • wow sweet video! you must be a really hardcore rider!!!

  • ok serious question, some ppl say counter steer and some say keep the skis straight which one should u do?

  • counter steer , no question. as long as the snow is deep enough and you want to maintain your height going across the hill you'll need to counter steer. you can also slightly adjust your skis and weight as you need to very easily.

  • Hey Is the Big Iron shootout going on this year. Cant find anything on it. Turbo Hill !!!

  • yep it is. next weekend. March 12-14 Sat being the main day!

  • I do a little of both to be honest. It is situation dependent. If I'm going snow counter steering seems to help get the turn started. Once I'm up to speed, I don't exaggerate the movement very much.

  • @slednx Dude you CAN not SIDEHILL without counter steering OK but there are times when you are sidehilling you may have the skiis straight for a short period before you start countersteering again. The More you counter steer the more you turn uphill the less you counter steer the more riding straight across slope you will do.

  • @slednx Dude in deep powder you have to counter steer. other wise you will turn down hill. It is like riding a motorcycle you must counter sterr to turn when you want to .

  • @IveGotTheNuts I agree totally but it is possible to hold a steady line with the skis straight. 

  • hey another tip is to lean more into the hill so u can have break controll allowing u to slow down while staying in a sidehill.

  • haha, a bearcat is great to throw arround??

  • @digerfilms ya.. with narrowed suspension.. tightened.. and bar risers

  • @digerfilms no. i have one and it weighs a freakin ton! i much rather my pro-xr :]

  • ohh, nice. I ride an `09 bearcat, great to throw aaround

  • ahhahahaaa

  • what kind of sled is that

  • 08 rev

  • Skidoo Summit 800 xp. it's not a rev!

  • a rev is a xp, xp is just newer....... extra performance ....

  • extra shit.

  • ski doo summit -rev xp  Im a cat fan but these things rip!

  • WOW, actually a good newbie how2 video.

    horsepower, big track and a lefthand throttle make it easier 2. Especially on an older sled,
