That's because most 2 stroke boys aren't man enough to give them an honest go....
They sure don't go up the hill very fast.

Lol I ride with 2 more so can include them. And you did ride a Polaris this year so maybe I can get you onto the Sidewinder....
But I would like to get a 154 2-stroke for the low snow days. I appreciate both types of sleds.

I kinda agree, the thing is I don't know if I can count with one hand how many guys I know riding a Winder.
I'm not trying to buck any trend, trust me, in fact I love the odds. If it was the case that everyone rode 4strokes I would be like you and every one else here. Hey, not that its bad or anything, 2strokes are so easy and simple to ride, very little challenge, just go. I do own a 2stroke sled and it blends in well with the crowds like the rest of them, I guess you can wrap it up LOL or have your own special braaaping signature pattern amongst the cluster of minions.
You see Maxi, I don't need to do that...trust me....I assure you I have owned more 2strokes and been riding 2stroke waay before you were born.
Each to their own, so keep riding your prefer sled, that is a good thing and I guarantee when a Sidewinder rolls by you in the hills you won't be able to help your self but to look..they all do, its a 4stroke.
We get the looks and the questions and guess what, its not even the newest trend on the snow...LOL

I can understand. I wouldn't want to run one full time, but it would be fun to have both. 165 Sidewinder and a 154 Turbo would be a sweet combo for different conditions.

Riding trees is not all about huge power. If you are on a 50-60 degree slope heading downhill and the hill is full of trees it is imperative that you can flip these things on to a spindle and control your direction. Poo does this well because it is light. Doo does this well because you can get your weight more over the motor and skis. A 4 stroke is just too heavy and will suck you toward disaster. Power can hide weight but only when the power is on but as soon as you are trying to change directions, the more power the more it wants to go straight.

I completely agree.
Except tree riding is not the only aspect to snowmobiling. Infact tree riding can be done anywhere there are trees. I do get a laugh at dudes driving for hours to the mountains to ride trees...LOL your fuel, your money, it must have todo with the trees in BC I guess. hahaha
Anyhow, if you like busting bark your right, no argument here.
I live in the mountain because I love the mountain's and everything it brings, if I wanted to bust bark I would ride my back yard, plenty of trees there and snow LOL.

It almost sounds to me that some of you guys like to knock some down because they might not ride your style.
Sledding has many styles, for me its backcountry/high alpine involving many aspects and not just one such as tree riding or hill climbing.
Happy sledding boys

Tree riding at home (for me) is nowhere near the same as tree riding in the mountains.
It can be fun, but not the same fun as working up the long hills in BC. Toss in a couple drainages and we have a good time.
Some guys drive all that way to drink beer and pound meadows. Doesn't make sense to me, but to each their own.

Pretty tough to find tree riding with 5ft of snow in Sask or Alberta. I think if you like tree riding, your likely ok with all the hill climbing, and playing in open pow on the way to the tree's. Kind of a win win really.
