Ya they do and it's a friggn blast.

If your not wheeling you may as well be drunk sitting on the lake taking about how gay your sled handles and how little fun it is

Could you imagine a sled that doesn't wheelie? I don't think I would sled anymore
Thank Santa for SKI-DOO. His Christmas present to you.

The m-series sleds generally dont climb with there skis way in the air. Its all about setup, It is fun but with your skis way in the air generally you wont have as much track on the snow. But you guys are talking about xms and appaerently they are the best thing since sliced bread, or perhaps the wheel...

A lot of guys grew out of that, and not everyone rides the same tree meadows and hits the same snow humps, again and again ..... And again.

I bet the fellow who took that photo (cp)just hit a big compression. The XM does not just wheelie for no reason in a boring straight climb

And they climb so much better when they're only running on 10" of track vs 3' - 4' pushing them up the hill !! LMFAO !!!

As much as I hate to admit this, I rode my buddy's XM and absolutely loved it. It's every bit as easy as my Pro to throw around in the trees. The only thing I would do to his sled is minor suspension adjustments to give it a little more ski pressure. First Doo in five years I've enjoyed riding and I really do like that electric motor smooth ETEC engine.


Done fishing. Let's go sledding !!

Yeah,, but don't forget , they're 16 wide.

Very true. That extra 1" of width would definitely let them climb higher on 10-12" of track length vs a Pro with 3' of track on the snow that is only a measly 15" wide. I definitely can see the advantage of more square inches on the snow with the Doo. Maxwell, I'm officially converted !!

I was hoping for this to be a picture of LHF on the old wedge with 4" of ski lift, with a grin ear to ear saying look this thing can climb.

Was out yesterday and jumped on a friends XM. I was pretty shocked at how nimble and agile it felt. The motor was smooth and pulled the front up with ease but it was also a 146" vs my 155". would be lying though if i said i didnt like it. Finding balance point was a pain.
