Levi. Your such an awesome roll model. And this will give so many riders a lot to think about. I love that you mentioned social media. Once you say it…… it’s out there. Doesn’t matter how great of a guy you are. If you Loose your composure on something as big as social media… it can be bad for you and everyone around the team. I have loved watching all your journey. Polaris Forever 😊
Thank you for following this crazy dream of mine! Being aware of your surroundings and how you are presenting yourself is huge. Social media is a powerful tool that can help or hurt. It is best to be overly cautious in what you write and post because you may not have ill intentions, but it can be perceived differently by others.
Excellent video. My child started racing snowcross this season in 120 stock. These are the values I will be teaching him as he develops both in motorsports and in life. Good luck to all your race teams this season!
Had my son watch your videos before I shared this with him! He had seen them all before. He is only 8 but if he only took one thing away from this video! It was worth it! Son! I will show you this video at 13 again. Levi! Disputably This video proves you are the goat in snowcross! At the very least you are the “professor”. Thank you for everything you do in the sport.
Far from the goat or professor, but I do love the sport and grateful for all that it has brought me. Enjoy the time racing with your son- lots of lessons to be learned and memories to be made!
Pumped the race is on! Unfortunately the snowmobile hall of Fame induction is that weekend and I am in this years class so I won’t be able to make NY this year.
Awesome video! Good points for life in general. Do you have any advice for someone wanting to get into the team/mechanic side? Do you need certain qualifications or can you be trained in? I know it's a small group, how do you get your foot in the door? Anything else? Thanks!
If you have some experience working on Powersports vehicles is a start- working at a dealership etc. It's nice if you have worked on the race sleds before to speed up the learning curve, but if you haver experience working on sleds that helps. Big thing is being close to one of the race teams locations. that makes things a lot easier and cheaper for the teams then you can stay at home instead of having to get an apartment.
Hello Cameron. Thank you for your input. Please elaborate on what you believe is more important than results in securing a spot on a professional race team. Perhaps that will help me understand your point better.
Hi @@Levi_LaVallee.. 😊 .. a couple of things are Sponsor Loyalty .. as in .. making sure as a Rider you are not seen “promoting” a brand that conflicts with a Team Sponsor .. and .. willingness to be a Team Player .. granted this is not as “openly obvious” in sports such as Snowmobile Racing .. say versus Cycling .. but if you are not a TEAM PLAYER .. in general .. I’d certainly not want that person on my team
@@Levi_LaVallee Still not one Tattoo on my body just have no desire for one. I like your shop the last time my shop was that Organized was 1989 the year I built it .
@@Levi_LaVallee My shop is full or equipment for my business like a front end loaders, lime spreader trucks ect and parts for them. The motorcycles and snowmobiles are in a corner. Also the Location is not so good Kalamazoo MI As I have to trailer the sleds 300-600 miles North to find any snow.. This winter sounds like there is not even any snow in the Upper Peninsula. I keep reading about a new Grand Solor Minimum. We had some seriously fun and long Winters back in the 1970's
@@Levi_LaVallee yea thank you my mom bought a poster for Christmas for me and when we got it you signed it with my name on it which I was very happy 🫶🫶

You the man levi, keep the next generation in the sport of snocross. I have to go watch Canterbury and ERX every year. It's just in my blood
Snocross has done so much for me, hopefully it can do the same for others.

Thanks for watching! Hopefully this video will help you progress through the ranks and have fun while you're doing it!

Always look forward to a new video from you and the team. Cannot wait until you guys arrive in New York next weekend. Safe travels !!!

Congratulations !!!@@Levi_LaVallee
@@kevinmulkin3002 thank you . 🙏
another thing I want to learn is how to get bigger sponsors
I could talk for a while on that topic.
Awesome video Levi! Lots of good info
Glad it was helpful!
Pallin still on your race team? He’s a hell of a guy. Met him when he first started out with eberts.
Hope to see you guys at ERX later this month 🤘🏼
Pallin is the rider coach on our team which we are excited to still have him involved as he is indeed an awesome guy!
Nut up!

@@Levi_LaVallee That all makes sense. Good to know! Maybe that will be me someday. Thank you so much! And congrats on the Hall of Fame coming up!
Great video Levi!!👏🏼
Thanks Brad!
Class act! p.s we wanna see you jump into +30 for a weekend, just for fun and the fans. Worried you can’t hang Lieders? 😎
Thanks.
No I’m not worried, I know I can’t hang! 😂
👍🏽
anything missing? You've been around enough to know.

Respectfully .. from a 35+ year competitor .. and Team Owner of “entry level” Semi Professional Cycling Team .. I disagree with “Results” being #1

Don't be a poor Sport. Back in the 1970's and maybe the 1980's the Japanese Motorcross Teams didn't even allow the riders to have a Tattoo.
Crazy how different things are now.
