how to unstick a pro.....

[AKSNOWRIDER]

buddy filmed this..this is me, short steep climb, at the end of a long day..so as i go to turn out, cant get the sled spun around fast enough and I stick it..(pro 163)...Now this is without doing anything to the sled or snow around it(its deep loaded slope)...no stomping, shoveling, rolling the sled up on its side and filling the hole..just a simple ski tug....watch closely...

I have a pro and not to diss on the pro or anything cause i love mine but generally any sled hooks up pretty good when you hit the dirt.

yep, you are right...but the 2 other times I did it on the way out..it didnt get to dirt..next time you stick yours..try just tugging a ski..

sometimes someone pulling on a ski makes all the difference in the world.

Actually I have noticed this with the Pro as well. Much easier to get unstuck than ANY sled I have every been around. We have been riding a ton on them with a mix of other sled Dragons, Doos etc and the Pros are hands down easier to get unstuck with just a ski pull. I know a ski pull CAN work on all sleds but its easier with a PRO.
It's starting to make me a little lazy.

I find my Pro soooo much easier to pull around, after trenching in, much easier than my Summit 144, I believe the major factor is the lightness of the Pro.

I agree. The Pro seems to come out smoother and most of the time a buddy and I just pull the ski and you are out. I think this is attributed to light weight and great transfer in the skid. It's also light and narrow which makes flipping it over really simple. I can do it mysel most of the time. My Dragon would get on it's top and it was tough to flip over w/o a friend. Haters - don't come hating this is just my experience.

Soon as you fix the crank and the jack shaft and get it running you might get stuck. Happens a lot more often out of the garage. Sorry. Had to. EW

i've found it pretty amazing what a little wiggleing and a whole lot of throttle will do

 

[snowmobiler]

xp riders dont wiggle

Tried a pro for a first time today. It was a pro rmk 155. I tried this hill twice with my 09 Assault and got stuck both times. Tried it with the pro on a different track and it walked up over it like it was nothing.
I was thinking about getting a switchback 144 next year but now I think Im going with the pro rmk 155 or pro assault 155.
