So here is the deal. This was the best trip I have ever taken. We met the greatest people from Chile who bent over backwards to make sure we were always enjoying the moment. Sahen Skinner and Ryan from BBA were incredible hosts and put us through our paces. They are truly amazing riders and coaches. Everything went so smooth. The food down there was incredible! My new 2015 Motorfist Recon Gear was superb, we stayed dry and warm. I am very impressed with the bolder colors and how waterproof my recon jacket pants and gloves were! The snow conditions were very spring like but we made the best of it and more. Will I go again? For sure! With BBA? For sure! With Motorfist clothing? 100 % yes it's needed to stay dry! Thanks again for an awesome crew and great times, riding and laughs!

The haters are gonna hate.....just proves how stupid some people are....at 11,000 ft in the Andes, a boosted yammy makes the same power as at sea level...... now what does a N/A sled make?....HAHAHAHA
You'd have to be an idiot to think.............oh wait.......I see who posted comments.....LOL

Looks like fun, one day I'll make it.

Why would you compare a boosted sled to a non boosted sled? Seriously usually you have some good posts but that one was just plain dumb.

I Never took any but try to find Coralco Ski Resort it may show up on there, or the town of Malachuco. We were close to the Lonquimay Volcano, but basically the area to the south and west of the ski resort. Of course they got a fresh dump the day after we left, but all in all I would do it again tomorrow!

I was one of the 6 guys that went and everything Polarman said about the trip is true if not better! We literally rode on volcanoes, climbed waterfalls, and checked out real natural hot springs! Sahen And Ryan had to be the best riders i have ever seen in person and had a lot of advice. Not to mention they we awesome guys. Motorfist managed to get me some of there 2015 Trophy gear and all i can say is at +16 on top the mountain it not honely get me dry but cool as well. Most comfortable gear i have ever owned. I cant wait for my - 1000 gran Alpha helmet to get in! Chile.jpg chile1.jpg chile2.jpg chile3.jpg chile4.jpg chile5.jpg chile6.jpg

Ps For all you wondering about the costs its $4500 plus flights. But money cant pay for those memories i now have. I was told it cost BBA around $45000 to get two c cans shipped down and yes they have permits which also cost them a **** ton. Say what you want about google and renting sleds down there, you still wont get the experience we had. Also look up sledchile on google which is the location we stayed. Guys name is Ceazar who owns the place.
