Had some good weather this week, and an awesome day of sledding the Alpine here in Whistler BC, good Day no Broken Sleds!!! actually lets change that to No Broken Yamaha's. It was a rough Day for the Ski-Doo's
(see Damage at the bottom).

Can you find the problem???, Its easy your not riding a Yamaha
we also had a brake locking up on the other Summit 800 and had to evacuate
But, I had an awesome day on My Mountain Max, wish I only wish could say the same about my friends riding those Re-Built Grenades.
 

When riding Mountain sleds you have a higher chance to roll over and you break the windshield off right away. My buddies in BC dont replace their windshields because it happened too often. Im guessing that what happened there.
 
My brother has lived in whistler for 16years and i have sledded there quite a few times and am hoping to get out there this year. Good snow and lots of spots.
 
Thanks for the Comments!!! Its a really epic place to ride, and develop really solid snowmobile skills especially in deep powder. Yeah, Windshields are good till the 1st time you roll your sled,
I bought the sled last season for 1500$ there was no windshield and its useless to replace,besides they will throw alot of powder in your face.

Haha the trailing arm on the Ski-Doo?, That's my Fat Brother's Sled, The Chubby Ol Powder Hamster was trying to counter-steer on a hard pack section, got tossed when the stabilizer bar snapped. He had a really hard time getting out of the backcountry. But managed to pull it off without doing any more damage.
