I want to see the Dragon rider ride through that trench!! The XP did pretty good in that deep of a cut. Let's see the XP first, and then the Dragon follow
the xp did better imo even though running in the dragon track was a hinderance and not a help...but why not sidehill up the slope to compare..???...the vid made the two sleds look weak when they can im certain side hill better then indicated
You should have taken the xp in it's own line instead of on the dragons cutout. Not a real good comparison running in the dragons foot print IMO.
BTW I can sidehill on my xp along with any dragon or M series.
A fresh cut is much easier than sidehilling in someone elses line. This is for all those people that say an XP can't sidehill.
looks like they both did it to me. depends on rider and ya they both need a fresh line

a poo and cat will sidehill slightly easier in marginal or hard snow--in powder the xp is just as good and in marginal snow you just drive the xp across because you dont have to side hill it to get there
pol doo and cat are so close to each other now its crazy the riders or drivers make about a 98% difference in what the sleds are able to do (who is willing to take the extra chance to make it look good to the guys at the bottom is the biggest difference)

Man, that was pathetic! Take those sleds up a real sidehill with deep pow, hard ruts, and drifts....oh, a couple trees and a few rocks too!
The video does not do justice for the topic of discussion. Apples to apples rules that you can not poach a track and then compare results. 'Nuff said.
Stay out of my area! LOL
The question should be can a dragon side hill after a night of 20 beers and 1 fatty as well as the well rested xp rider.

An Apple tastes as good as an Orange, just different. The sled that sidehills the best is usually the one that gets ridden the most. Time on the mountain is the biggest advantage .
It really does come down to the rider, not the machine. That was the point of the post. A lot of people seem to be taking this a little too serious. It was not meant to be the proof that one sled could sidehill better than the other.
We were just having a little fun in the whole 7" of fresh powder on top of hard pack that we have here in Washington. It's been a crappy year for snow here.
I am amazed at how many people think riding in someone’s sidehill trench is an advatage.
Eric, we tore the crap out of your area!
Dragonrider took it easy Friday night it was more like 10 beers.
LOLThis is such a waste of a thread. The original poster should just drop his pants and show us how big he thinks he is.
WOW That's deep. Deeper than I wanna go. Strange part is I actually sense some excitement coming from your post..
