Well not quite but there is some modded wedges and some not in here. I think Bogger is in here with his old 670 Summit.

I gotta be honest..........................................I don't think the new sleds are any different today.

 

[the_real_wild1]

LMAO. Nope I agree. I didnt notice much difference between my 2012 Freeride and 2000 Summit 700.

I didn't see one handle bar riser in that entire clip. Looked like 90% of the riders were sitting most of the time.Riding sure has changed.

 

[snopro]

WTF with that Jed guy? Lmao!!

 

[win]

Brought back some good memories 670 rules lol

 

[007sevens]

WTF with that Jed guy? Lmao!!

That's LHF before he upgraded to the wedge.

 

[snopro]

That's LHF before he upgraded to the wedge.

No wonder he gave up sledding...

Im not sure how someone could even ride like that. My steering post is 10.5 in above my hood and my bars are 15.5 in above. Being that high it helps me flick. LMAO!

 

[Nitrobkr]

Haha reminds me of the 670 I bought in 98. Well except I put a MONSTER 141 inch track on it lol.

You talk about real passion and dedication to the sport and these riders qualify! Some big talkers now days dont ride their brand new sled as hard as these boys ran these. The pain almost shoots up my back watching some of them cliff drops they do. Watch the suspension and how much "POW" they land in. They are just happy to be outdoors, none of this "The snow is too hard" "there isnt enough snow" "my back hurts too much". These boys made sledding what it is today!

We rode hard in them days. Came in soaking wet and tired. I can remember back then the chat around the hotel room being the same as today (my sled is better than yours).

I have no idea, where this thread is going to benefit anyone, other than this is the Meca of sled vids.
Shows where we all came from as riders, good and bad.
My 97 Summit was a great sled and I thought I was king chit (so did my friends) when I got a 2" track
None the less...... I'm watching sled vids tonight

Have a great 12/13 season everyone

That's an awesome old vid.. Hard to believe how far the technology has progressed.. I like the last scene w/ Blair Morgan shredding the track on his Cat, sitting on the seat just bouncing around the corners.. love it..

Haven't heard much about 7c lately.. Anyone know how Blair is doing?

 

[the_real_wild1]

I think the best part of this video is the note at the beginning! The adjust your tracking one lmao.

 

[talkinghamster]

cant believe how hard there riding those old clunkers haha. surprised the machines took that abuse. pretty damn impressive actually, from both rider and machine

 

[gopherchoker]

As far as entertainment value I think this one rivals seldnecks 15 IMO. You can tell some of these landings ended in hospital visits.

 

[kimrick]

I think Jed takes the winning video for cliff jumps in this video.
Anyone else have to adjust the tracking to get video to play? BWHAAAAA!
