2020 Ski-Doo Summit 850 E-Tec Turbo Rider Interview

Sorry, but I have to ask...with you as a professional PR spokesperson, why did you record this in a vertical format?

I'm totally confused. I just don't understand why anyone records in vertical format...it's like looking through horse blinders. The fields of view are so limited.

In this particular case it's not a huge deal...but in my opinion it is always better to record in horizontal format. Can someone enlighten me as to why anyone would intentionally record in vertical format. Am I missing out on something? Almost everyone I know is now recording in vertical and I believe they just don’t understand the limitations of the field of view.

Serious question.

I also think Ski-Doo's latest is a great leap forward in the progress of snowmobiling.

All my stuff is for instagram, now and other social platforms, sorry it is where we are measured, it is a lot of time to do both and for lots of stuff I do, but i spend less time on here due to so many negative people, lots of great people too, which is why I still come here but right now social is where people are seeing the newest stuff so it rules all, appreciate you input and you are right, but there is only so much time and I am busy, so lots of stuff gets canned for the most efficient generators. Happy Riding! dave

It's a new thing all the cool kids are doing... just like the moving picture shows in the big city

 

[norona]

What is instagram?

The largest social media platform on the planet.

[Rene G]

It’s a new social media that my kids use, it’s all short videos. Some are really funny. I don’t understand it...

 

[FernieHawk]

Thanks for the reply Dave.

I wasn't trying to be a Negative Nellie...I just couldn't fathom why a professional would record in vertical. It is to bad Phone manufactures enabled the vertical format...the phones should record in horizontal format no matter which way you hold them.

Back to the Turbo...I think it's awesome that factory rated maximum sea level horsepower can be maintained up to 8,000 ft. I have rarely ridden above 8,000 ft, so in my case max rated power would be available all the time. There has been so many occasions where Ive been riding in the 7,000 foot level all day, maybe with a warm inversion, and I get used to the lower power output. Then I ride down to the valley floor at the end of the day and I notice...hmm...my sled is running as fast as a scalded dog...sure would be nice if I could maintain that power level up top. I also have zero interest in running an aftermarket turbo but I would like a factory setup.

Cheers
