pro in 4 feet of fresh, awesome!!!

[m8sandman]

got a huge blast of pow this week, me and a bud took our pro's up to rip it!!! got into about a 2-3 mile section of nothing but 6 foot deep windlips, the pro's were eating this up. got to a section about 50 yards long, a little more flat but the snow had blown into this spot making sooooooooooooo bottomless. got to it and the back just sank, held it pinned, for that 50 yards my front end was sticking almost straight up. ski's hanging above the snow, and the pro kept on going!!!! got to the point i was barely, and i mean barely moving so started pumping the bars forward and back. gave me that last little bit of mo i needed to burn through the last 20 feet. have never seen any sled go for that distance that vertical and keep going. did the same thing several times, you couldn't help it, the pow was just bottomless all day


heres one pull that didn't quite make it!!!

i'm 5'10", this pic is me standing in the trench, i'm eyelevel with the pow, PRICELESS!!!

you had to be careful getting off your sled, if only we floated as good as the pro

cool.my xp would have spanked that hill

i'd like to buy your xp when you sell it, according to everything i've read about it on the forums, it'll go everywhere, better than everything else and i would bet it'll give you a handjob when you get back to the pickup as well.

I am surprised at how many peeps dont like to ride when its that deep...I live for those days..full throttle down hill and still getting stuck...just a riot for me..yeah you are gonna get stuck..but dang it..it is so much fun and such a test of sled and rider.....we hit a place called lost lake back years a go, they had 10 ft of fresh ...just leaving the trail was unreal with 6 ft + walls to climb thru....best ride I have ever had..burned a tank plus 2- 2.5ers in about 8 hrs..never went more then 4-5 miles.....

Ya I hear ya man. Part of riding is getting stuck, a bit of digging if worth a good day of pow in my book.

Rode two days ago in about 6 ft of fresh ( I would sink up to my arm pits.... and I am 6'2")
We actually got 217cm in one week thats about 85 inches in one week...... and no one had been out..... so we didn't get to far and were beat by the end of day. (so many stucks) Whooo Hooo
Thanks for sharing the photo's.

Just three days ago my buddy with his last years XPX146 and I with my Pro were in very similar conditions. Where he found he was full out all the time, I was finding the Pro did best at about 3/4 throttle. A couple times I found myself in exactly the predicament in your photo and made a discovery. Where side to side shake couldn't get the job done, I found that I could throw my weight into the bars and back, and get moving! I have never done this before and never seen this done before. Tried the same on the Summit with no obvious effect.
Unfortunately went back to the same area today to find a couple days of 45-50 degrees and fog have reduced 4-6 feet of bottomless powder to 20-30" of mashed potatoes. My deep stuck was merely a two foot deep trench!

just one problem....NOT ENOUGH PICS!! i think i speak for most of us in saying that we are green with envy

Last week 3 people with PRO's went riding in snow about that deep, and all 3 of us came to the conclussion that if the sled was leaned to the right with the exhaust in the snow it would cut out and stop you dead in your tracks. Sometimes it would do it just going straight down the trail in deep snow not leaned either way. We are thinking that the exhuast is getting restricted to much. With a quick yank to the left and it would clear up, other than that this sled is the best i have seen for snowmobiling. Wondering if anyone else is having this same problem?

V shaped exhaust deflector and an exit that looks to be in the same location as a 900 Cat? If not properly sealed and intakes on the inside of hood I wouldn't see why it couldn't happen? Mike

 

[Fr8tdog]

Thats why cat came out with the exhaust dumping into the shock tower on the M series sleds...
