do you mean "Traitor"?

Depends, maybe he is trading the Cats off to get the Poo's
Maybe he wants more of a challenge, the Cats work too well so riding is probably getting boring for him.
I cant believe how many people are butt hurt over this, is he the reason you chose to ride AC? Did you really have to make another thread about this when there are allready several in almost every section of this forum.

Hmmm!
I don't think most of the riders in our section even know who he is, most riders came from the Twowheel world.
Anyways nobodys brought it up in our section, so your safe over there.
We still like Hot Pockets though.

He's not the captain so why would he go down with a sinking ship?

if someone gave me sleds, and paid me to ride them I wouldn't care who's sled it is. let's face it, no sled is great without aftermarket help anyway. I'm sure Chris dosen't ride a stock sled often. anyways, congrats Chris, hope it all works out good for you and your family.
can't blame a professional for going where the money is.....bret farve?......me?, i traded companies because i could make more money to support my family and to be able to put away some for retirement......no problem with his decision, even though i would have liked it better if he stayed cat...but cat company is maybe hurting a little now, and if polaris can pay the freight for him, wouldn't you do the same when the bucks are on the table?.......even though i ride mainly cat, i have had at least two sleds form each of the main four manufacturers....would never buy a snowhawk, however...

Pure and simple a bussiness deal. Look at Motocross. Bubba Stewart on a Yamaha last year? Carmicheal, all of the greats have gone where the money is at one times or another. Even Blair Morgan a few years back, Cat to Doo... One thing about the greats, It does not matter what flavor they are on, they will always rise above the others and be in a class all their own. Polaris just paid alot of money for adverising, And Chris will still be Chris, only alittle weathier.
Read on another site AC never offered him a contract
how do you know that Cat didn;t drop him and he is only earning half of what he did from his new sponsor...?????...old atheletes earn diminishing rewards..
X2.
It's like people are crying in their closets, wearing women's clothing and parading around the house with a strapon on becuase some dude switched brands.
I'm starting to think there's a lot of people living in their moms basement on these forums.
This is getting weird.
cat has a history of finding and developing young talent and then knowing when it was time to move on. It seems they can sense when a racer has peaked. Remember Robbie Malinosky (sp?)? Yeah, nobody around here does either. I am actually thrilled that Chris switched to Polaris, I think that now I might be able to out boondock that motha!

Besides, I think the manufacturer gigs are just income to float him through the summers. Say he guides 3 guys a day, for 4 days a week for 4 months. At 400/day per person (ballpark pricing) he's pulling in roughly 20,000.00/month for 4 months of "work." And that's JUST the guide aspect of Chris Burandt. Figure out what Polaris/Arctic are paying him, as well as any other sponsorships and you'll realize "he's doing OK."
Congrats to Chris for suckin dry every t!t he can while he can.
