I was wondering how some of you all sidehill? what is your technique? do you use your side hill strap or lefty throttle? This should be interesting forum.
Where do your ride? The trails? Sorry but that is simply a ludicrous statement.
I have never felt the need for a lefty but I am over 6 ft tall and have long arms. The strap on the other hand can definately be a lifesaver or at least a sledsaver.
The trick to most sidehills is enough gas to get the track to drop in, usually lots of gas. Once the track has dropped it is easier to roll the sled over and sidehill.
I never go on one side only.. keep one foot on eachside.... what you need to do is to turn your ski tips out from the hill... your weight is on the inside and your tips point away from the hill... the more you turn them away .. the more it wants to go up the hill..the ski cuts the snow and your machine falls into it...
