That guy was a freak of nature and likely could have rode a crazy carpet in and out of that bowl! Unbelievably talented rider and route finder!

Yup, he also loved his shortcuts!

You Guys have obviously rode with Jim in years past lol!I remember one spring trip into Allan Creek it was May 23 and we got the sleds up to the Snow the first day( a lot of Dirt Riding)and left them there overnight.We had a old King Qaud with no Brakes that all 4 of us were on with Jim driving down the Switchbacks got the Heart Rate going!Good Times I sure miss that guy!
did you say No Brakes!?
I would politely disagree. I am far from a really good rider, but the mono-rail skid makes it wayyyy easier to ride in almost any of the terrain we ride in.Actually the Alpha is an incredible machine only it takes a really good rider to get the most out of it.

......I would agree with you but they are not know to handle well on the trail or crappy set up snow. The reality is we have to deal with this sometimes. What I really was trying to get at is that the handling limit of the machine is higher than some other brands.
