    Hey Matt, been watching for years now and just want to say how great you editing and content is. Never is the volume drastically different, the video quality is top notch, the riding is top notch, the commentary is top notch, the sleds are awesome(the wrap on the 165 doo is the best yet), so thank you for all the work you put in, and the places you take us.

    Hey Matt
    Put a rubber band around ur kill switch. It will still work ,but " taps" from limbs won't kill machine. A little Steamboat trick I learned way back when there were no Turbo sleds. I'm 54 now and my kids don't know how hard it is to ride without one in those conditions.

    Thankfully you ride in a good size group, makes those mechanical failures less stressful and you can all help out. I was really hopeful that Polaris had their clutch issues sorted but unfortunately it appears they don't. For the weekend rider this type of failure makes you regret your purchase and this is about having fun, not justifying $1800 heli rescues, down time, trips to the dealer and thanking the good lord above it's still under warranty. Great content, great edits, and thanks for braving the cold to make my Sunday morning awesome!
