Pretty fresh edit ngl
Nice edit boys!
god damn that was awesome
Wow! Old school style! Love it! Would love to see some 440s in the modern mix aswell. 🤩 Thanks, cool video!
That was amazing!!
Nicely done Tristin!
Giving me old slednecks vibe, love it👍 long time since there been something with this good content!
Yeyyah🇺🇸🤙🏼907!!
this shits oldschool. i like it
Facts. Got the 2010s Slednecks vibe. So sick!
📽🎞🔥
this is nuts!!!
Carli for the win
Sick edit! Best I’ve seen in a number of years!
🤘🤘🔥
🤘🤘🤘
Great editing. Chevelle was a solid choice. Hopefully winter 24’-25’ is kinder to the lower 48.
🔥
Was amazing to ride with you guys!!!! Can’t wait to do it again !!
Lets goooooo!
Sick
I miss winter already!!! Fuc#en summer is Way to long !!!
Let’s goooo
*promo sm*
Summit x with expert is same as freeride🤷🏻♂️
Freeride has a narrower track though…
Ski-doo vibrates too.
can you wear this in the summer as a regular street helmet? I think the design looks so cool
Go with billet aluminum and scrap the cast aluminum!
cracking and possibly exploding clutches is still a problem with sleds, we can put a man on the moon but still have yet to make a clutch that doesn't crack like an egg. Haven't heard of Doo P Drive clutch cracking yet, and the old TRA clutch might break an arm inside which is like a 40$ part, but AC clutches hav historically been grenades and only some poolaris.
Congrats, Riley!
Are they actually running 700 's or is it a 600 mod actually
He raced a 600 with an Ibexx turbo on it in 7 mod
I’ve wondered the same thing since no manufacturer even makes a 700 or a 1000 anymore
Rob Kincaid is very happy with his boy watching from up above 🙏🙏
Great job Riley, put that cat up there .
Pumped for Blaine ! he deserves the win ! he was riding awesome !
Snowmobiles are going to become a dying sport! Yet i use my sleds like you guys use your cars/trucks everyday to go work an hunt.
Im not paying 20k to 30k i just bought a 1,500 needs maintinence but ill get her going!
I don’t get why they are making the backcountry more trail oriented. Wish they would make a version that is basically a summit/freeride suspension with the trail cooling. We don’t get deep snow here on prairies but ride almost all off trail. Would be nice to have something we can run a 1.6-2” track at home then swap to a 2.5-3” for trips out west
I agree with you. To me the question is simple: Does backcountry riding include putting the sled on-edge and side hilling? If yes, the only crossover sled in the market is the Backcountry (with the narrow ski stance). If no, then you have lots of choices. Learning to ride a snowmobile on-edge is hard enough for a trail rider and doing it with a trail width front end takes a ton of effort and leads to bad habits. With that said, I think Ski-Doo made a good choice offering the wider stance as an option. There are a lot of trail biased critics that don't consider riding on-edge a necessity. Even when I ride in the mountains, I notice quite a few people limit their terrain choices to areas that don't require side hilling or very little of it. I bought a 2020 BXCRS with hopes of riding it on the trails of Wisconsin, the UP of Michigan and out West. It took some tweaking to dial that suspension in for the trails. I keep up with an aggressive group of riders but I do have to work a little harder through the corners. I've also ridden it in the UP and West Yellowstone. My 146/1.6" track severely limits me in the mountains, so the track swap you mention would be a nice option. I considered doing a 154/2.5 swap on mine, but after falling in love with mountain riding, I now own a Summit. I will eventually replace the Backcountry with a 137" trail sled.
I spring ordered and have been enjoying my ‘22 BC X-RS 850 154/2.5 as my second sled to my mountain sled. Here in the PNW the Backcountry is ideal for conditions we often face through the season - Cascade concrete and hard packed trails. I’m looking forward to upgrading it to a Gen 5 Backcountry but will probably opt for a 146/2 next time and may opt for the wider front end, too. I’m surprised more riders in the PNW and coastal BC don’t ride crossovers but maybe this Gen 5 version (especially the Turbo R) and the new AC Riot Catalyst and Polaris Switchback Boost will create more crossover converts.
Awesome weekend Justin. Keep it going.
Epic ride Justin!
This is so confusing. Ski Doo needs a total redo and simplification of model names and configuration.
I have the same sled still running strong after 8year
Pfffft new gauge doesn’t even have a back-up camera!
Why they keep the gage wow way out dated
Cat was years behind keeping the 800 for so long thought maybe a 900 instead of 858 hummm
some people upset, haha yea the diehards that think cat is just the best. So rarely you get sleds that arent setup but you have cat throwing this sled together and giving it to you and when it sucks backstepping. Same shitty handlebars and setup, unreliable adapt primary, and a monorail that nobody wants. Cat is so far behind the ball I don't think this 858 is gonna save the brand. Back of the pack like usual. Can't wait for the diehard cat guys to eat their words when the 858 is released and cat has all kinds of issues with it.
The handling sounds like this really is the second coming of the M7. That sled was amazing when it came out in Fall of 2004. Makes me glad I have a Mountain Cat Alpha One ATAC 154/3.0 on order.
If your still figuring out the calibration on a brand new sled maybe dont hand it over to the press to review and forward to the potential customers… makes me wonder how much durability testing and whatnot is done before people buy them.
Какая цена у вас😊
lol😂😂😂😂 You guys just saved the Cat fanatics from the noose!!😂😂😂
Stepping off the stool now…
