Filmed by the owner of 509......a long time ago at the BISO.....One of those was a crank shop 900 ;) pernsonally I like several of the new items on the Chassis. I think their Belt drive is one of the key features. The 858 if under 20k will be a serious sled.
Snowmobile Pioneers there. Hibbert, Hallstrom. Ex Arctic Cat execs and bad ass knowledge. sorry i don't know exactly the third guy. anyone know details on each of them?
Totally with you on this. All the signs are there and some of the access they utilize doesn't have timber for a reason. I don't know this fellow but if someone can pass it along It may safe someone's life. Didn't they recently take an AST2 as well? Putting a lot of people at risk and...

Certainly some instability playing with us all. Not sure on other details, but if they were at Cat or Heli ski operations, then it fooled the Pros as well.

Alan from Timbersled built this 10 years ago and got me thinking. Low CG, larger displacement and something unique. But I was thinking...
As a sledding community I feel its the right time to talk about this amongst ourselves. I've had 2 incidents where I had to use my radio for group rescue. I don't want to have a third. For those that don't know its when a sled usually "over-transfers" and basically loops out. Often the sled...

Safe travels.

Godspeed Ken Block.
Wonder if he got "Mousetrapped". I can tell you this is real as F. The only thing that will save you is a radio or guys close by with eyes on. Nobody can unpin themselves from a 500lb sled when underneath it and your extremities are all over the place. Wear chest...
IMO we are 2 big storm cycles away from somewhat normal. With the price of these machines and parts in general, its cautious travel for me at the moment. I can't image many tracks lasting long for the pin and wiggle club. Seen many rock impacts the past few days so I'd image some bent parts...
So what is the best go to on Belt drive? Never really considered it but I have one I may try it on. Im not even sure the brands out there.
TKI
Specialty
What else?
Thanks for info
Funny....had a decent time in 3 different zones on the weekend. Nice pockets of spring snow but no tracks most of the time. Storm cycle coming this week, so lets get back to winter.

Cheers
