Is it necessary to countersteer when carving?

[Jeff C]

I never do, but what do you guys do?

I hear countersteering is the way to go.....


Hmmmm

 

[khaddon2110]

depends on how much boost you are producing at idle, or what tint goggles you are wearing.

Burger King chili, a whopper Jr and fries for lunch. I should have counter steered!

you also have to take into consideration whether or not the machine you ride has a ported track, snowflap and seat.

Does using Blue Marble help with countersteer?

Whats countersteering?

Easy, On the way to the hill you stop to get coffee.
Those who can, sit at the swivel bar stools and practice balance.
Usually the best at counter steer sets highest mark on mountain later
unless some one cheats. ("track poaching" I'm sure will be addressed in
a thread coming soon)

[kinge]

Its your momma that countersteered!

 

[minnesotam7]

If you have a ported chaincase it is mandatory that you counter steer while carving

 

[doors4u]

You guys have steering on your sled?

 

[Meatman]

I had the dealer put one on when I bought my sled...clean look, good feel, almost looks stock

 

[Ollie]

You guys have steering on your sled?

I have the steering system on my sled. I even have it pretty well figured out. Still not sure what the whole "brake" thing is about though.

Do you have to grease the muffler bearings as much when you counter
steer?

 

[NoSecondChances]

Do you have to grease the muffler bearings as much when you counter
steer?

No, and less grease will make your sled lighter even though its not about the sled weight or track length its about the track speed. Make sure that you change the summer air to winter air in your trailer tires though, this might help your counter steering when hauling if you're not producing boost at idle..........
