Muskoka Freerider

[snochuk]

Sounds like a bunch of wives on here being worried when their husbands go riding. And we say, we’ll be careful don’t worry. This can be a dangerous sport and will bite you hard when ever it chooses to. I’ve had to dig friends out and I have a feeling muskoka will have to eventually also.

Look at the sleds we are riding. To push the sled or ourselves we are getting very deep into danger zones, well beyond what is safe. We know that packing our gear before we leave. It is up to us to have the best gear and training to mitigate the risks we are WILLINGLY taking to insure a safe return. Let's not kid ourselves on what we do and where we go, just make sure we minimize the exposure of the risk tolerance we take. Shat ya I regularly play outside of what is safe, BUT minimize the exposure and have mitigation for spotting and rescue within and outside of the team before you point uphill and pull the trigger.
Let's not question Matt for doing what 99% of us regularly do. If we run our turbo, NA or that most awesome 9R to its limit and have to loop out, well, we have long since crossed that safe line. Just make the best remaing choices when crossing it.

Well stated, I don’t think peeps are picking on Matt, just a reminder (as you stated) of the dangers we expose ourselves to. Exposing multiple people in your group on certain slopes can be a recipe for disaster. My hope is everyone reading this topic will be reminded of basic Avi safety 101.
We all get complacent at times and reminders are a good thing.

Wondering if something is wrong with the turbo doo, Matt has not been on it for days. He has not even put a can on the poo, first thing we always do, room to get in the engine compartment and dumps 9lbs or more depending on the can. SLP can is probably the quietest, close to stock and cooker mount. I put a diamond S on my 9R (saves 12 lbs ), wish i would have done SLP as the titanium Diamond S is it a bit loud for my liking. Advertised as fairly close to stock, not so much

He probably doesnt want to mile the thing out so its still worth something at the end of the season

he is probably playing catch up with the 9. he already had over 1000k on the doo.

there are a pile of people without 9r and looking for content. I think hes trying to give that to them

That DOO is pretty beat up already....don't think the odometer will factor in too much for resale at this point.

Or they could have gone to the meadows to see who could wheelie the furthest.
And it was multiple turbos flailing and not able to get up to the two 9R’sAt 1800 meters.

So you think 5000km wouldn't effect resale? Ok sure..

Doo really isnt beat up is it? Few plastics mb a set of aftermarket boards or heat and straighten and you would never no lol, if u actually use a sled tbere are going to be bumps and bruises on it
