    BoonDocker's crossing the trail.

    Couldn't agree more pc, we spoke with a lot of folks in town for the veterans ride out of Seney. Great ambassadors for our sport and our veterans.

    BoonDocker's crossing the trail.

    As a trail rider we have seen more and more of this happening, off trail guys using the trail berm to launch into the powder. Coming from one side across the trail to the other. A few years ago we came upon a very bad accident where a trail rider broad sided a BoonDocker doing just that. Just...

    Retail Price Of Skidoo Advent Helmet?

    So I paid $560 for my carbon mission 3 years ago with electric shield, add $200 for cardo packtalk bold comm, $50 for bite harder helmet light and $70 for a magnetic cord all total around $900 invested in my helmet. The new Advex is a pretty sweet helmet, it has a lot of the mission features...

    Heere Bleezard Bleezard!!!

    Very good luck! I know this all to well, my boys were multiple time state qualifiers and placers in Ohio. I gave up snowmobiling for 10 years for wrestling, would do it again.

    La Nina is here, anything that explains the warmer weather we have had this winter?

    La Nina winters were supposed to be good winters. Third year in a row with La Nina in place and two of the three have been terrible for snow fall.

    Places to drop in Gran Marais or Newberry?

    The drop area for GM is on M-77 where trail 88 crosses M-77 on the West side, it's about halfway between Seney and GM. Newberry has a drop on the North end of town by Timber Charlies, Pine Stump offers a drop area and then just North of Pine Stump on trail 8 is big drop area. The Kingston Plains...

    Mission helmet fogging up .

    I use the electric shield with my Mission and find no need to use the breath deflector. I carry it on my sled in case of a mishap with the shield, but all has been good for 3 seasons riding this way. If you are using the non-heated shield cooksend is correct on proper fitment with the correct...

    Biggest year in modern snowmobiling

    So many...IFS, REV rider forward platform, EFI, 4 strokes and now the technology era. My first thought though was the REV rider forward platform.

    Ride Light

    Our group is using the bite harder helmet led lights, 2nd season with them. We have blue, green and red lights in our group. During the daylight hours is where they really are a benefit, because they are higher/brighter they can be seen easier than a taillight can. In snow dust is where they...

    Ride Light

    heckler this is my groups 3rd season with ride Lites. I will say we have been seeing more people with ride Lites each year, but most have no clue what they are. Be prepared to be flipped off, arms thrown in the air and whatever else from riders. I do wish the whole sled countdown thing would...

    df your further ahead on the suspension game than most so you know what it's like riding a dialed in sled. Maybe I was being a little hard on the smart shock concept, sorry if I offended you as it was not my intention. All my buddies have experienced a fault with their smart shocks either it be...

    df, I have riding buddies that have the cat I act system and one that has a 22 doo with the smart shock package. We switch off to get comparisons and chat about each package. Plus were fortunate enough to have couple of shock/suspension experts that are way smarter than I am to rely on. The one...

    I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers, but I stick to what I said. Sure, Poo and Doo hold a large market share, I don't disagree, but they could be so much better. Safer for the end user with better shocks and springs. These stock shock packages are good for one set of bump frequency at one...

    Catalyst pricing

    I disagree, it's been Poo and Doo chasing Cat and the current procross front end is still better than Poo or Doo latest and greatest. Poo is getting closer, but Doo has a long way to go. Poo would be on par if they went to a better shock package, the Walker Evans 2.0 is a gimmick of a shock with...
