Sledding question...

to all you lucky bastards with sleds:
when you go sledding, how do you get your sled to be at the bottom of the run? do you leave it there then get on a buddies sled? do you let it run down?

i just saw a segment in yearbook where the dude just lets it ride down, is it that simple?

you can ghost your sled back to the bottom if the hill is super mellow, but if its all steep and gnarly its not a good idea. Usually you can just tow up behind your friend, or ride tandom to the top and then one person can ride down and the other person can take the sled

^^ once u get a real sled you stop talking to your skiing friends and forget about skiing...a deep pow day on a long track monster is way more fun than skiing....sorry but its true, ask anyone who sleds often....nothing like surfing bottomless pow on a 900 rmk...just make sure that you have a strong back

i like riding in powder but i always get stuck and have to do a fucking ton of lifting/pulling. riding powder in the woods suck, but rippin up the road before the plow comes is sic

No they dont, If I didnt have a summit I would have an RMK they are both dope mountain sleds.

Anything you can ghostride your sled down generally isnt worth it to ski down. You ride up tandem or tow someone up so one person skis and one person sleds.

Tow-ins work great. Get a $20 wakeboard rope from WallyWorld and you're set. Riding tandem is really tricky, but if you can pull it off in ski boots, more power to you. It's a hell of a lot harder than most people think to pull someone up gnar terrain. Sometimes it's just not possible.

I like the torque that the rmks produce...my sled is a monster on hill climbs....I owned a 700cc REV ski-doo last season and it did not have anywhere near the same performance as my new rmk...the 159 track is definetly needed in the heavy tahoe pow....still sledding in MAY....brrraappppppp!!!

riding tandem is the only way, can be a pain in the ass in boots, but less getting stuck and less wear on the sled then towing
