First Ride Reviews - Arctic Cat 2019

We review the M 800 Mountain Cat Alpha One

Published in the March 2018 Issue April 2018 Arctic Cat, Feature, Snow Tests

PROCLIMB 7 G2 SKIS

•    New shape delivers better flotation
•    Easier steering
•    Different keel
•    Molded-in foot traction on the top of the ski for better footing when needed.
•    “It’s not the most aggressive ski but we think it’s the best all-around ski.” –    Andy Beavis, Arctic Cat mountain product team manager.
•    Tapered width; 7 inches at the tip to 6.5 inches in the middle.

Beavis explained the ski is the same size but is attached a little farther back on the spindle.

HANDLEBAR CONTROLS


There is definitely a new look to the handlebar controls on both sides of the handlebars for Cat’s mountain sleds. The hand and thumb warmers, forward/reverse button and high beam switch are all grouped together on the left handlebar and easy to use. There is also a button on the handlebar that toggles the display screen on the gauge. The kill switch on the right handlebar has also been redesigned and is a push down to kill, lift up to start design rather than a toggle kind.
