Any snomobilers on here?

[OrvisKrawler]

So that killer subaru thread had me wondering if there are any sledders on here, its supposed to snow this weekend, which means its going to be that time soon, anyway if you do I would love to hear where you ride and what you ride....post up some pics

as for me Ive been riding for about 9 years, ride tonys grove, franklin basin, wolf creek pass, afton, monte, and the mountains around my house in the ogden valley

here are a few pics

I ride some for work, but I've never had the opportunity to have much fun with them.

I've only been a few times and for the most part it sucked. This year however i figured I'd give it a shot on my own mill. I recently picked up a VERY clean 95 XCR with a good running 650 tripple swapped in for free. With the PSI pipes, 136x2" and a few extra's it should scoot pretty good for a dinosaur... That is until I learn the hard way (like so many others) why Polaris went away from the tripples :rofl:

Some people go nuts over these things so I figured I'd dive in and see what all the commotion is about :D

Btw thats an impressive drop!!! :eek2: :greg:

thanks I was hitting that with some pretty good speed, all the landing holes are mine as well lol :D as for your sled it sounds like a good place to start, add a handle bar riser though it will make all the difference in the world for sidehilling and throwing the sled around, I started on a 98 summit X with a 136 and rolled it at least twice everytime out lol... fun times

i ride my lil bros sled he has a 2002 rmk 800 which is a decent sled to learn on. i never liked the snow til my lil bro picked up 4 sleds for 2000 bucks. but now we are down to just one sled so i dont think ima be going out this winter :-\.... that drop would feel amazing! i love the feeling of floating through the air nothing better then it

My friend Jake, he is on here, but not that much, married into the Simmons family. As in simmons skis. He rides all winter testing out new ski designs and last year rode a sweet propane powered turbo sled. Ill get him to post some pics.

They have about a dozen at any given time. The CNC all their own parts for the propane and turbo setups.

forgot to tel you where I ride, mostly the lake creek area (tower mnt) & the fairview area, a couple time a year. Ive never ridden the tony grove area, Ive heard that Its awewsome! I ride a juiced up 600 dragon.

[OrvisKrawler]

nice vid! ive been to tower mtn area once it was pretty good, if you ever get the chance to ride tonys you definitely should it is by far one of the best places to ride in utah, Ive always wanted to get down to fairview to ride, heard its really good

One of my buddies I ride with had a 600 rmk on nitrous, it was a fun sled!

yeah fairview is some cool ridding!
the 600's are alot of fun, Ive shaved about 40 to 50 lbs off of it & slp did some nice work on the motor. I cant wait to get out & ride!
If I ever head up that way Ill have to hit you up, to show me around tonys grove

I have been riding since ~04. I make it out a handful of times per year. Mostly timber lakes area. We usually make it up to either Sun Valley or Island Park once a year. This year might be West Yellowstone.

I wish a had a job that I could head out on the good days. I only go when new snow happens around the weekend.

I have an 04 rev 159 and a 01 skidoo 144. Both are 800's and bone stock. Plenty of machine for me.

I have always wanted to ride Island park, but can never get my buddies to drive that far, I go up in the summer alot cause my family has a cabin by henrys lake, ive heard its a snowmobile paradise up there

There's no better way to spend the winter, IMO, than on a sled:) I ride an 02 RMK 800 for now. I have fun on anything thou:D
