I rode one when Arctic Cat was doing the demo tour with those and I totally agree smoothest Atv I've ever been on. Seems like the faster you go the better the ride and lots of power! Wish I had 20g's lol

Apparently you can get them stuck. Tony Stewart mentioned on the Nascar coverage this weekend that he got his stuck twice Easter weekend in South Carolina riding with buddies. Lol.

So, since we are on the topic of "air"......can someone explain how "air" is measured??

when you say you got 8 feet of "air"....what does that really mean? Is it 8 feet in height (this is the way I have always interpreted it) or is it 8 feet in horizontal distance?

If you jump over a driveway and you go 2 or 3' high but land 10 or 12' away....how much "air" would one call that??

We took in the Bonnyville proto-type demo ride hosted by T&T...would be nice to try them in some mud :p but they were a real nice ride...super smooth and handled well.
It's a bit tough to get video from the ride, but we had some from dif peeps so we whipped up a little promo for T&T.

I tried that $h!t with the wife's old 6x6 Ranger after having a few.....not a graceful landing to say the least.

I'm betting there's a great story behind that..... but probably no photo's or video.
