Brake cleaner works great removing sticky decal residue.

I rode an 12 600 etec xp for a quick lap today and was pretty surprised how good it handled ripping uphill in wet schmoo. I weigh 200lbs...

Etec for sure. Fairly bombproof engine in an industry where wrenching and replacing ($) is part of the game. I know a guy who just rolled 15k on his '13 Etec. I rode an XP for a year before I got an...

Its a dangerous addiction

things starting to fill in at Whistler. I went up Rainbow for the 1st time yesterday... twas deep!
...

hahaha... forget Cats and call around to all the Doo dealers to see who has a spring order T3 package available. Its the only way to go in wet coastal snow. The turbo'ed out Polaris's were turning...

oh there's plenty of snow up high, but along with potentially trashing a good sled dealing a shit stained approach trail through the subalpine you'll need a decent mtn sled to get to the goods! Pics...

Brandywine will be your best bet. Blackcomb snomobile grooms quite a bit for their tenure. Always lots of people around too if you get stuck. I would not take a sled like that too far off trail. Lets...

That thing is gonna get you laid, for sure.

Seems like stock is a pretty good bet these days. Not really into highmarking, but Im not really wanting for more power in my T3 174. I guess someone straightlining up a narrow 45 deg chute with no...

Yep. Sometimes your local scene/shop will dictate your ride. Thats how I ended up on Ski Doo. Theres a Cat shop local, but no Polaris and everyone pretty much on Doos, so that seems to be the local...

Mannix-

I had a 14 163 xm that I thought was the shit until I caved in the entire left front side at the end of last season... otherwise Id still be riding it. I bet the T3 acts like a high...

If you whisky throttle it into a sidehill, the Tmotion washes out and the front end of the sled will hook uphill on you. The easy solution is to ease in on the throttle and goose it right along a...

finally got a free min to put up some pics from my Revy trip last week...

leaving Whistler and not sure what we would find.
...

I posted 2! The rest are on crackbook. T3 lives up to the hype and the 174 is a monster. The only stuck was behind an Arctic Cat 163 breaking trail. He burried it good and I decided to wait on the...

More fun in the sun and pow yesterday in Revy!

Broke trail into Turtle zone outside Revy yesterday and found this...

Thats whats happening here in BC, but the plate is same as a car, it stays with the person, not the sled. Before the sticker stayed with the sled so it was easier for someone down the ownership line...

XM is off road. Call me crazy, but Id rather schralp fresh pow than build roads! You get paid by the local club to do that sort of thing?

Wow. Makes me rethink wanting to head out to Revy this weekend! Having been overnighted last season in similar conditions, I'm ok not driving 8hrs and missing a deep day or two if its just going to...

so how many of you BC interior folks are heading out sledding this weekend? Revelstoke zone has a decent base and looking at a meter by Friday and then bluebird... seriously considering hopping in my...

Just got my new ride registered. The new registration process is a blatant cash grab. Went from $10 last year for the sticker to $48 this year for the plate! Obviously new sleds pay tax at purchase,...

and that's why I go with a new sled out of the crate with warranty! Man, if I had to deal with that shit all the time, I wouldn't ever ride!

As far as I know, the whole plate thing is a farce....

I had CFR blades mounted on the inside of the tunnel with a HD bumper on my XM 163 last season and loaded it up with ski and camera gear no problem. Ratchet straps > bungy cords. Obviously taking it...

I know. Its a fuckin Etec... you could run that shit in your house.

So the new T3 package was supposed to come with a smaller muffler can to save weight (5lbs). Got a letter from BRP prior to delivery saying new can didnt pass EPA standards so back to the old...

I could just run it up a frozen trail with scratchers up and slap a full rack of ribs on there. Sizzle Mcgriddle...

No lack of RE back there, but I dont dare leverage it out! Putting my CFR rack almost right behind the seat. Gonna add on tunnel stiffeners and a HD bumper. Apparrently a prototype came back with a...

my new ride pre PDI... now we just need a few meters of snow!

the banana 174... pretty happy I didn't choose this...

Tyler from Broken Boundary Adventures in Pemby has 3 13 XM's for $9300. Not sure the K.

Ive got access to a local sled tour ops rental fleet. Trade paint work for sled stuff. Getting my boys out on the mini z 120s this season. I'll get you out for a day or 2 of sled ski in brandywine...

I never rode it either. Kind of an impulse buy. Never show up at the sled shop demo during spring fever with $500 cash in your pocket "just in case". Figure if I hate it, I can sell for at least what...

Hey, I resemble that!

Good luck with the new sled! Id say congrats, but that would be right up there with congratulating someone on their 1st hit of crack! Its a dangerous addiction!

For sure. Kind of scared what that thing is actually capable of! Shes coming out of the crate on friday, so some pics of me rubbing one out next to it in the driveway will have to suffice for now!...

Ive got one. Still in the box. All yours for $20k. Hahahaha

Pretty sure those guys are both on Ski Doos. Daryl Treadway is selling a 12 xp thats in decent shape for $8k or so. I know those two are more ski access users unlike big bro Dan who you would never...

I think 3-4 guys on sleds leap frogging along is the best trailbreaking method. The trick to making it efficient is the lead guy doesnt just go barrelling in as far as he can, but sets a nice little...

I hear ya. Endless sled adventures right out my back door makes it an attractive sport in its own right. I think sledding in BC is an entirely different exp than most other places. Places where you...

Pretty low for a 4 yr old sled. I put 2500k on an XM last season alone. Like I said, Kidwoo can probably attest to it going a lot farther than that. Everyone around here is jumping on the XM...

I can personally vouch for this sled. Owner is a pro photog who used it just to get out and set up shots. People goving him shit about it being a back up sled since the miles are so low. I dont know...

Cool design. I like how the aluminium angle iron doubles as a tunnel stiffener. Patent that shit.

If youve got an XM, Skidoo has a ski/board rack for the Linq system. Seems a bit less $ and bulk than the CFR rack. The advantage to CFR is ability to strap all sorts of other crap to the rack. CFR...

Tis the season to get sendy!

Hahaha... Awesome! At least you saved it from rolling to the bottom!

I did something similar on a climb the other day, sans tree. Breaking trail up a steep off camber climb to a ridge line. ...

Foon is one of the most humble, under rated mountain mad men you will never meet. Dude is a ninja.

Pehota says he drove a Tundra up the S chute 20 yrs ago... but it was considered a pretty big feat back then. Now its just another blip in the daily commute because modern technology has evolved...

It started snowing in Whistler. It was sofa king deep. Buddy getting right in it!

If the snow doesn't come to you, you go to the snow. Pics from the Pine Pass in Northern BC. Snowed 3 meters of tits deep blower in 2 weeks. Amazing sled zone.

Grandpa Leo still killing it at...

The SP is not the Sport. SP is pretty much the same as the X and Freeride (XM chassis). The only real difference being cosmetics and a lower level shock package. Logic being when you blow out the...

Sounds good. Buddy made it sound like something new. Maybe for him. Dude is going up today to rip around and see how she goes. We get the wet and heavy more often than not, so not clogging/bogging...

Got a new 2014 skidoo sp 800 and looking to mod the muffler with a can. Save some weight, make it louder,etc... Anyway, local shop owner is modding his out sled out with a new can that exhausts into...
