By the looks of the feed I would have to say that rider had a lot to do with outcome. Pretty gnarly hill this year.

They would have to be very talented riders, to take the industries lowest rated hp sled made of glue and self destructing engines to the top. Must have been a pine cone free hill this year.

HaHa yeah they got some good riders. Keith Curtis may be the best out there right now. No pine cones but lots of ruts and a few rocks thrown in. Its all about flickability man.

You forgot about the instantaneous lift also. Sure hope Polaris gets all the bugs figured out of the 16 axys for 2017 or could be over for Polaris.

Guessing, but looks like about 45% Polaris, 40% Arctic cat, and less than 15% skidoo, of total sleds that participated... ??

Not a lot of support from Doo compared to the other 2 manufacturers. When you listen to the feeds most of the non Doo riders that are winning are sponsored by the manufacturer. Free sleds and the private sponsors pick up the tab to travel to the races and pay for food and lodging. BRP seems to have really backed off in snocross, hillclimbing, and oval racing the past few years. Its sad really.

I guess polaris is the choice of sled for running them for only 2 minutes at a time before having to work on them again. good on 'em. lol

Theres lots of things in life worth riding for 2 minutes at a time. And Polaris is one of them. Lol.

Looks to me you hold it wide open for a minute out of the gates then almost come to a stop and then start jumping back and forth from one side of sled to the other at full throttle while trying to hang on for your life? Sounds like its all sled to me???:mountainClimb:
