Boost-It Pro first Polaris ever up the Gash

[NM]

We caught a window right after a good storm in Revy and decided to go play in the chutes.
I had never climbed the Gash with my Pro so thought I would give it a go. Only running 7 lbs of boost and a mix of C-12 and pump.

you made it up that fairly easy. What type of 4 stroke power is required to make that climb.

It depends on the chassis setup, but 200 hp with a 174 and good skid would have made it on that particular day.
There is no way that any sled with a stockish skid and a 162 was going up there no matter how much power.

How many vertical feet are those climbs?

pretty sure Monster is 2200'

pretty sure Monster is 2200'

Although they feel like 2200 ft, I think they are about 1000 ft. lol
The problem with the Monster chutes this time of year is if you don't make it and the sled comes out on its own, then it's likely a heli ride.
The bottoms of all the chutes are icy because they get sun. You could actually hear my sled spinning a bit when I first got in to the climb. That was the worst part of it.

Haha yeah I was thinking about that number and it sounded off thanks Neil!

Because I was on team 4-stroke so I used my fast Boost-it apex!

Nothing really big, but it seems to stay down and handle really good. Will be adding some traction and some power very soon.

That's kind of why you don't hear much throttle jockeying! It was more or less a clamp job. Haha
