question for the guys that have gotten their pro's ski side up

[mickyd32]

I was out playing in a few feet of fresh stuff today on some banks and managed to flip mine track side up when i hit an old run underneath that had gone hard. To my knowledge I didn't hit the killswitch, but the sled died in the 5 seconds it was wrong side up. Is this typical of these? I know on my carbed RMK it never used to die when this happened, it would run like crap for a minute but usually wouldn't die

luckily no damage to anything, it fired right back up and ran good. just curious if they are supposed to shut down when you flip them over or it was just a coincidence

My sled will run upside down all day....no, it shouldnt have died in my opinion

 

[Arcteryx]

Mine runs upside down as well

Belly up

My one also is running even if it's ending up belly up

ok well next time I'll see what happens

Come on, get with the program - put that thing on it's head and lets find out if it will cut off or not - we need more empirical data, one event is not statistically significant...and photos, we need lots of photos.

Note to friends - if you bastages start posting all those upside down shots of me I promise to get even!

I guess you will have to hold off on doing back flips until you get this resolved

A lot of times when upside down, the kill switch is depressed when the bars are shoved into the snow. Several times when out west lately, I tried rolling my sled back over and several times the snow would shut my engine off for me so I wouldn't suck too many exhaust fumes during "undetainment".

Yep, mine runs upside down, sideways, backwards or any other way it decides to end up.

LOL, mine runs upside down quite a bit. Yesterday I even pulled the old roll and go (stopped on a side hill to help a stuck buddy, sled started to roll so I just went with it, let it roll over me and pinned it as soon as the uphill ski came over) by accident.
