Awesome climbs Chad!!!! Super stoked for you. I think the 90 is the scariest, more consequence than the Monster.
Frenchy did the Monster on Angel's 800 159" I believe as well. There was a 1000 that went up it too, can't remember who, Irman maybe? Those are the only stock pulls I know of.

Thanks! Pretty sure Angels rev was an 860. Either way that sled would be harder to get up the monster than a stock 154 doo. He did the spine on a tss turboed doo. That might never be done again!

Nope, it was stock lol. He climbed it on his 860 as well. But I have been wrong once or twice haha
For those of you who maybe haven't been around as long, Dave Knight climbed the Monster on a bone stock (+ can) 800 Rev about 10 yrs ago. It is doable but time of year plays a huge part in attempting these climbs, its "easier" as things firm up, but expect the consequences to be much greater if you roll it out the bottom.....

I'd like to know what these guys are smokin or drinkin to build up the courage to point any sled up these chutes, ESPECIALLY stock sleds. I played eye of the tiger on my iPhone as I ran around my sled at the bottom of the 90 and still couldn't bring myself to trying it hahahahahahaha jkjk.

Thanks for the update
You are correct sir, it was stock but it did have a 150x2.5 Camo w/can! I must say that climb was one of my biggest adrenaline rush experienced to date (precede that with the Spine & the Pirate of course). I barely scratched out of there that day, and worst yet my hand grip was giving out in the last few [but very long] seconds!
The fun thing about the Monster is it's never the same. I've done it a few times now and it's been different every single time. It can go from nice and smooth with good traction all the way up, to the nastiest hillclimb kicking you right and left from bottom to top. And what makes it even more fun is you don't get to pick! ...Or I guess one can always pick if he/she is really patient!

Checked out the top of monster today, the cornice is still big and there is a lot of snow in there. So we decided to go try the airport chutes to see what kind of track speed we could carry up the shoot. I went up first and barely made it over the top..was way deeper then I thought it was. Then my buddy went up on his nytro and barely made it over. It was too deep for my liking to try anymore chutes. I guess I'll have to wait till next year to try monster.

1200 turbo doo
Was that you i saw in the bullpen on Friday? I was on the TSS XM.
It's definitely still deep out there. I just barely made it up the 1st airport chute on Saturday. A couple of guys got stuck in the second one so i never tried it.
Should make for some good late season riding as long as the weather stays mild.

Ya I think it was, I was on the black n white 1200. I wanted to try the second shoot as well until I barely made it up the second one. We couldn't even tell u guys did the shoot yesturday when we did it, it snowed a lot since Saturday I think. Was deff a good pull out that's for sure.
