      It was a fun sled to ride! I miss the simplicity of the older machines.

      @@thatalaskaguy Yes, I have the exact same sled. Just came in from the garage and cranking her up. One prime, one pull. Great sleds. I do have others. A 2003 Yamaha RX-1 and a 2019 Ski-Doo Renegade 600R. I love all of them for different reasons. I post some videos on NLP_SLED_HEAD.

    Hey what happened to the cross country 600 videos?A Bud of mine just bought an old AC two up with 299 original miles cool but I couldn't even sit on it,my hips wouldn't let me even get my legs up onto the running boards 😂😂

      Haha!
      This winter sucked for videos of that sled. We didn’t get decent snow until January and then it didn’t stop snowing so all I did was shovel, snow blow and move snow. Then I got a concussion going headfirst over a bank into an ice road so I’m recovering from that still.
      Right now I don’t feel comfortable to ride the Cross Country the way I want to make the videos I have planned. I don’t want to risk smacking my head again, I already ruined one helmet and am still feeling the effects of the concussion.
      I was surprised by how not comfortable the Panther was. I don’t like riding with my feet out in front of me as I know how a bump can sneak up and compress your back. It was still fun to ride! I forgot how capable the springer sleds were climbing hills. I miss how the old sleds make small areas way more fun than newer, more capable machines.

      I’d like to ride his Panther again this winter, they are nice sleds.
