Good to see more people in it
Getting the 'brothers' into snowmobiling would be huge.
Hard to imagine pulling up to a group, we take out helmets off, and one or all of them are black. I honestly don't think I've seen a black guy on a snowmobile, although there have to be a few riders (maybe more in the midwest?). Deion was big when I was a teen; I'd love his autograph on my sled! I'd ride with him just to say I did, but I'd have to suggest West or IP - not any of my favorite spots - because there's at most 15 miles of trail where I ride, and those sleds don't have enough track! My old 600 would probably handle deep snow better, but then again, he'd have to get the bug hard to get much into off-trail riding. It's easy to forget how much it takes to get into that. That said, imagine what a really athletic guy could do on the right sled; not Deion obviously, but someone like him in his prime who could ride would be a nightmare to keep up with!
There have been a few here in Alaska over the years. One was Too poor to buy his own sled, but loan him a 10-20 year old piece of **** sled and he'd school the cool rich kids on their brand new factory race snow cross sleds! Honest! That kid could ride a turd and make it look effortless and fast! We all envied his talent.
At the Avalanche 1 seminar last fall, there was a noticeable crowd of Hispanic Riders attending!
It’s entertaining, like watching Christopher and other newbies not quite tie down their sleds, oh the tricks we learn over time.
Also insane how far a three inch track can carry cow **** when the only trailer you have is the dairies calf hauler.

The taller people have a huge advantage if you are thin, us shorter men really need a ton of upper body strength. I'm 52 year old and 5ft 8. I've had to up my dose of TRT and pump heavy iron to be able to muscle the machine around like I did 20 years ago.
I've been practicing on my sidewinder. Makes the 9r feel like a feather.
