We use a the pulse because we found it the easiest to use and they have been one off the benchmarks for a beacon to be compered against for a few years now.
More important that what beacon you get is that you commit to learning how to use it and practice as often as you can.
It is a awesome sled to bad its not my sled... I hope that the owners back is better come winter though because I sure liked the time i spent stealing his sled...
Till I got on that sled I have not like any turbo Ive tried and I've always been a big fan of a well set up big bore. Im seriously...
we were riding the rolling hills last week but I'm not sure how much longer that will last... I'm sure some of the higher places are still very good. I'm betting on a august ride.
I wish the snow was a bit softer,that thing would pull like a freight train.... 85mp++ track speed right away.
Linderman installed the turbo kit a few days before and till this sled I have always been a big bore advocate. this sled might have changed my mind.

Good luck

I have to agree with Maxwell on this one.... like he says if you mix your gas then run it, fuel up and top off the oil and you can determine the mix that the oiler gave you ...
I get to ride all of the big 3 and a hand full of Yamaha's, and I would be happy on any one of them. I really think people should spend more time worrying about whether their dealer takes care of them and sets up a sled well.
I have to ride clients sleds often and they want to try mine for a...
I always feel safer on my sled then I do skiing, because skiing/boarding you still need to expose yourself to slopes, although the ski hill does great work controlling the slides I would rather spend time in the trees on relatively flat ground. This week we have see slides that went over...
I would help if it slid. when I see people in danger I make a point of going over introducing myself, asking if they are from around here, offering some local knowledge and from that point if they still feel safe I respect that they may have a different safety threshold then I feel safe with...
