What about the Red Skidoo?


lynx is a skidoo. there is currently 3 sled manufactures, more like 2 in reality though.

Brp, Polaris. Maybe Cat, see what they have for 2023 i guess.

Long time cat rider myself. May be on the doolaide next week. Wasn't impressed with the Polaris we rode with this week. Both had issues. Rental Summit turbo got ridden like the redheaded stepsister on pornhub and didn't skip a beat.

Nothing against Cat. My best riding friends are Cat guys.

They are kinda flying under the radar the last couple years though.

Turbo Alpha next year maybe?

If that was the case, I might be interested. Not holding my breath though. Cat parts are hard to come by on a sledding trip though, and my dealer (about the best dealer out there) closed up shop last year so there's nothing close to home anymore.

I want more power, but I'm getting too old to be working on the mod sled on the hill. I was really keen on the Boost until this trip. BRP, as much as I have my personal dislike for the company, seems like the logical choice.

They are a good sled forsure. If i was buying a new sled id get a 165 turbo freeride.

Would prefer a freeride, but if I can snag a summit expert that Randy is backing out of, I'll go that route. Prices are likely to be up next season again
Saw Willerton's in Wainwright just posted they have a snowcheck walk on a new 165 Freeride Turbo on Facebook. Arriving early this week. Give em a call.

Cats are def tough ive seen some cats take hits that would of crumbled most other sleds, if you want durability there hard to beat also great reliable engines road my brothers alpha last trip out west it was a nice sled but the 800 motor

Hopefully a narrowed down chassis. Better handling, better rear skid and suspension. Could care less about turbo or more hp.

They don't have to do anything to beat the competition. BRP should lay off the engineers for the year. I don't care if that the new POO rips, sounds like more of them are broke down than running. :skidoo:

id like to see a tunnel/cooler redesign. One things clear, the gen4 holds about 10lbs more snow and ice than the matryx chassis. i don't care about trail cooling, ill figure that out.
Try a sno flap! Sorry bud had to go there! 😂
