i just returned from Colorado on one of the best snowmobiling trips ever. 5 guys from Idaho went down to ride with Chris for a couple of days. just letting everyone know if you have the time and money to book a trip with him it is worth it. you will not regret it. you can expect to have a good time, learn that you are not as good as you think you are on a sled, because yes hes that good, become a better rider, eat some good food, throw back a few Monsters, scratch your sled, wear yourself out but most important you leave with a smile on your face. Chris thanks again for an awesome experience. i will be back next year because like you said "no excuses" right? -Rhett

Yup, we also just got back and rode with him the day you guys left. What an awesome experience!

I would reiterate that if you think you can ride, this trip is for you! Chris (and Jared) are extremely hospitable and CAN RIDE! I thought I was an average rider, but soon learned I'm on the bottom end of the skill chain. We had epic snow two days, 10" of new POW the first, 15" the second....on a wicked base.

His ability to manuver the sled in the tree's is awesome! This ride will help you become a better rider and gives you a real understanding of the term "Boondocking"!!!!! It's not backflips and climbing chutes, it's all about riding areas that I would have never went by ourselves prior to this trip. You will become better at sidehilling-up and down, pow carves, weight transfer and sled control in tight quarters, and a hundered other tips and ideas. You'll ride fresh pow in terrain that you wouldn't have riden without Chris!

When Chris says 'you will get stuck'.........he ain't kidd'n! However he and Jared NEVER batted an eye at pulling our flatlander asses out constantly for two days!!

The accomodations of his house, shop, meals are bad azz awesome!

I too say thank you and recommend this trip! Rock on Chris B and remember, if you can't ride........at least be able to talk Smack! :D

Although I do have pics of the experience, they don't do it justice as there wasn't much time for photo opp's until we stopped from exhaustion! LOL

Makes me want to save my $$ for a session with him for next season.

It's good to see someone who is passionate about his sport/avocation take it to the next level and make a living at it.

Right on Chris!

Mafia and Speed... I'm jealous!
 
What the Idaho boys didn't tell you is that they get scared on the Kiddie rides at the local fair! Driving up the loading ramp is a big hill for them.
HAHA LOL.

Heard that Steiner tried to follow Chris off a small set of cliffs and took the XP end over end. Maybe you dinks will take me with you next year, sounds like fun.

WHATEVER DUDE YOU HAVE TO HAVE A SLED THAT WILL GO ON THE SNOW, NOT THAT P WORD THAT YOU TRY TO RIDE. MARSHEL DONT WORRY YOU AND JUDD GOT TO GO TO THE MT'S TOGETHER WITH ONE SLED. GET OVER IT HA HA
 
I too just got back from riding with Chris, we flew into Colorado the day the Kansas guys left. What an awesome expierience with great snow, and blue bird skies. The trip was great from the moment we got picked up at the airport till the time I got dropped off. When Chris said to us he was going to take us out of our comfort level, he wasnt lying. I'm still having flashbacks of some of the amazing things we did, and I will never forget some of them. We were also blessed to have Sandra (Chris' wife) with us on the second day of our ride. She was an awesome rider also, and I picked up a few tips by watching her ride also. The food was great, sleds great, people great, house great, so I hope you get the point that everything was great. I do have to go out and buy some hot doggers now. I will try to post pictures at a later time.
