Me and my buddy had our first trip to the hills this weekend on the new proclimb 8s. Both of us just got off of 11 m8s and bounced from all brands before that so zero brand loyalty. I was told the new chassis would take some seat time to get used to and this was definately true. I felt at home instantly on my m8 but both of us took a little time to figure the ergonomics out. At the very end of the last day things started to really click and it all came together. At this point I am quite happy with the sled and know the potential is great. I will say that it is not the lightest feeling chassis but it is very responsive to rider input. The new chassis definately climbs better than the old m and credit that to the 2.6pc.
There are a few small things that I did not like which #1 was the seat height. TOO TALL!!!!! I sure hope somebody makes a lower aftermarket seat, i was constantly catchn my boots jumpn from side to side. Did anybody else notice this or am I just gettn fat????
All in all, good sled and should make for some good battles this year.
pros- climbs like a goat
track improved 100% uphill and downhill performance
snow evacuation
trail performance is awesome
overall handling
cons- seat height
storage
front end weight
