    Sick area back there, that is the beauty of spring riding. Another old school sledder here, a lot of us oil field workers would work pretty much all of Dec to end of march. Then load up our sleds and golf clubs and head to Revy in April or May and Ride & golf. Back in the early 90's we used to get a double room at the Columbia motel for 20 bucks a night in April-May, it was a cheap fun holiday. Sled until mid afternoon then go play 9 holes of golf. Throw some screws in your track like the hill climbers do for those icy conditions, also build a couple ski brakes from old belts helps a bit too. I remember the ass puckering spring riding on the down hills, heart rate would get way up there. LOL. Keep riding and filming, the snow will get better once that ice layer melts in a few days. June 11 was my latest day riding.

    Great to see you are still living the dream in the west. I was just out your way skiing at Revy a little hard in the morning but the afternoon was good. I have been following you all winter and have enjoyed seeing your adventures. My wife and I came into a lot of new snow this past week it made the skiing outstanding. I hope you found some of that good white stuff too.

    Hey Mat. You ever try the old belt around the ski trick? Slap an old drive belt around the tip of each ski. Acts kinda like a front brake. Chain works too but a couple spare belts are much more handy.

    Please provide more detail regarding the use of reverse during downhill. Do you initiate reverse while stopped or do you do it while still going down by locking the track/hit reverse button/gently release track and continue downhill coasting and if you need to spin track in reverse you first lock the track and give it a little throttle while still locked and release brake when you can feel clutches are engaged?

And on the screen thing for the loss of connection thing my sled did it before and apparently it’s a upstate that the dealer was supposed to do when they gave you the sled and it’s just a update that the dealer can do they just connect the computer to it and update it easy fix. But then after my third ride after it my screen hasn’t worked or turned on for the last few rides

    I seen enduro/rally race riders route two a complete second clutch cable from the bar to the clutch, then sealed the ends and if their clutch cable breaks then can just complete swap to the second one in a race. I dunno if the breaks on sleds are common enough to make that worth while
