Silvertip's Playground (Highway 80/20/89/49)

Good morning Gentleman...
Thank you for the pictures. Mr. Oberti, I'm very sorry to hear about your sled.
I have a 1972 John Deere snowmobile you can borrow.

I know that some here have great concern of my identity.
I will unveil myself at the annual Snowest party at Mr. and Mrs. Oberti's house.
Save me a seat next to Jim H, on the couch.


who says your invited?

hummm very interesting. what size of john deere is it. i might be interested in it to put a new turbo on. then i can crash and smash with the best of the cali boys. puddles can you arrange pick up of this sled for me. i might even borrow some shop tools again and see if i can put it together. i will have to call boondockers about a custom box setup and maybe i can call 383 about making it light. then i will come down there and show you guys how to ride.

hahahaha.

Who said you are invited?? How about you quit screwing around and say who you are. And thanks for the offer, I am sure the John Deere will really excite me.
 
Wow...cool pics John!!! I still don't think pictures do that hill justice...man was it steep!

The pictures of your hill are so deceiving, that is the gnarlyist climb attempt that i have personally witnessed. I was impressed. I really fought myself to climb it after you, and finally decided to error on the side of caution. Watching a top notch climber total his $20K sled can tend to make you question yourself. For three days now all I can think about is I should have tried it, so I guess I feel like you I want that hill even more. One way or another that hill is gonna get a track up it, it's just to bad pictures flatten it out so bad. Anyway's, cool to hang with you guy's and see the bar being pushed higher.
 
I couldn't agree more. I really think you would have made it though. Your sled seems to keep the front end down better and you more than have enough power. The only tough spot is where I lost it....just a funny bench right in the middle of the off chamber part. The only bummer is that is you don't make it you are screwed, otherwise I would try it as soon as I get another sled. I may think twice about it now. Either way, great weekend, glad we got to hook up finally.
 
I think that guy peppers his friggin chili with too much TABASCO! I think J-Lowes in for a stalker LOL O LOL!

King, its not me!!!

John, great pics looks like a great two days of filming, can't wait to see the video.

I think the fact that your sled was sliding sideways as you went through should have been my first inclination not to head up there... The second problem would have been you removing all the traction snow and leaving me solid ice :) Either way you made an amazing pull up through there! :beer;

Gracias~

All this talk about the big hill..... such a shame. I think the bee-hive may have to make a special trip back up there and stomp that hill out!
 
jesse i knew you were crazy but man what the heck were you thinking there. no steep enough landing and the snow was too hard but you did something that there is not enough money in the world for me to do. congrats on the try but you might want to leave some film time for the rest of the guys like shane. lol
 
jesse...you've got huge stones for going back up there and dropping that cliff. nice job again and thank god you came out okay.

BILLYJACK...dude...i did a little recon on you man...VERY interesting background! a soft-spoken gentlement with a short temper and a pension for roundhouse kicks to the head.

BILLYJACK goes to WASHINGTON is an awesome movie...nice work. everyone shoud check the youtube teaser for that one.

totally cool having a REAL celebrity in our midst. welcome BJ...welcome.

Way to beat me down when i can't already get up guys. I've heard all week thus far; from my chiropractor to my mom. I think Shane-o explained it to me best though, sideways landing = twisted back... Thanks to all that were there for your support.
 
Nice pics ST. Can't wait to see the film. That was a beautiful sled AO to bad. I see the Holz IQr is mising off their website??? Hmmm
 
He did not take more. Should he of? Mom was pissed, but i didn't give her the full story. I figure she can either wait for the movie or gather the rest from others.

I guess he knows best seeing as he has been treating you. I thought he may take some, but I trust his judgement 100%.

Yeah, I'm sure your mom will love it when she sees the video.
