Great job on that cliff. It showed how steep it is if people look at the angle you're at walking vs the hill. Looks like about 45°. That thing would break my ankles again 😂 well done man
The 52 is what I want to get, the engine is stronger. I was considering the extra cost when I said the 48 makes more sense. Thanks for your input on that. Perhaps it would pay off spending a few more dollars for the 52. I'm also getting a 36 for Gates.
JD 52 or 48 inch hydro walk behind is awesome on steep slopes. On flats hitch a swivel wheel and smoke any zero turn. Every landscaping trailer should have at least one hydro walk behind!!!! My company specializes in steep slopes and retion
Hello :) Here in South Louisiana the only hills we have are levees or ditch banks Damn good thing too I am too old and brittle for these kind of stunts :) I once went to the the mountains ! They had these runaway ramps All I know is things would have to be going awful bad and things would have to be really serious For me to consider bailing off the road and running down One of these things :)
I'm in VA also I would.... almost....take you up on that offer to come test that hill with my grandstand but I'm not dumb 😂. I can tell that's a steep hill. Central VA here.
yea camera flattens hills. I have a stander.No way any could do it sadly. I barely can walk it and fall ofter.when wet we have to trim the darn thing :(
Maybe I missed it skipping over parts, but what size is that scag you are using? I recently took on a job that includes overpass slopes and I have a 36" swzt but I feel like its gonna flip, maybe its just me being overly cautious, but my guy took our 48" exmark and bout gave me a heart attack several times
Oh well I'm 57 and I work for a landscape company and we had a hill about like that but it was was it 40 ft tall or you know height was up the hill and it got steeper and went for like 45 almost like a 50° angle there's parts we couldn't even cut with the I was running a bobcat 36 walk behind and I had another guy behind me with the same model but it was a 48 inch and he slipped let go of the mower it went down the hill smacked the 1978 Ford Granada and moved it 4 ft so I have experience running the extreme hills but it's been a few years but I can run a 36 and a 48 but I only do walk behind uswzt I'd like to try it out sometime
Thinking about getting a 36" walk behind for my slopes. Have a Toro ZT but often end up push mowing because I dont want to tear up my moist soft yard. U think this would be a good option?
You need to make a long POV trimming vid showing edging and all that. Everyone should make three or four of those per season it seems like. I think most people like them the best.
Walk behind is only thing for that hill.camera doesnt show hills.no tractor could do it sadly.barely do it with walk behind. however my 52 swzt does better than my 48 swz(in this vid)
Thanks Jason. That is an excellent mower and I am going with a Velky on 1st commercial purchase. I've got to get business first. I'll be starting out with 2 residential riding mowers & 21in Troy-Bilt. Thanks Jason
I had them on my small z mower years ago.If you are careful they wont damage turf either....Most engines have enough oil pressure to cycle.Never had a prob :)

Those hills look pretty dang steep to me!!
I wish I could find more videos on Velke's cutting hills. Thanks for this video.
I appreciate you 👍
I have better vids on my channel.I prefer my 52 scag over this 48.i love em both though.52 just better on hills

Yep it is steep. I got a hill like this. I hate it.
Where's all those stand on guys at 😂
Your accent luls me in. Love your commentary
Yup that's what I'm mowimg steep ass hills on my pro line 44 in maine so I mean a real hill climb
Yeah mowing in the mountains is a whole different ballgame. I hate to say it but flatlanders have it a little easier than us. Lol
flat landers have it made! lol
I hear you on hills I'm in east tn
Hello :)
Here in South Louisiana the only hills we have are levees or ditch banks
Damn good thing too
I am too old and brittle for these kind of stunts :)
I once went to the the mountains !
They had these runaway ramps
All I know is things would have to be going awful bad and things would have to be really serious
For me to consider bailing off the road and running down
One of these things :)
I'd be more than willing to come up there and take and start from the bottom and work my way up on a serious 2 scag v ride
I have 2 vrides
I'm in VA also I would.... almost....take you up on that offer to come test that hill with my grandstand but I'm not dumb 😂. I can tell that's a steep hill. Central VA here.

Great job man Ik what your talking about haven’t had a swzt but I do know the belt driver are better on hills tho

Good Job
Does the scag v ride 2 hold that ??
How do you think the swzt 36 would do on that hill, been wanting one to do hills but think the 48 would be too wide for the hills i have.
Where is up here? I'm down here in the ozarks. I have the last year of the vride 1 an really like it.

Relative is the word your looking for
Lot easier to Bail on a vride zero-turn than a walk-behind

Made some years ago.
Made some years ago
eXterminator I know but you need a few new ones each year.
my hill is similair to that... i use kubota zd 331 mower to mow that (dads mower) and wondering if any other brands out there that will tackle it
Walk behind is only thing for that hill.camera doesnt show hills.no tractor could do it sadly.barely do it with walk behind. however my 52 swzt does better than my 48 swz(in this vid)
Crazy hills almost think your in Tasmania 😜
You should try the VRide on that hill. I have done a hill with the VRide but I can’t tell if it was that steep. Keep up the good videos.
vride cant do this one.walk behind isnt safe tbh.like i said in vid i wrecked my wb on that hill previously lol. camera flattens hills big time
Swzt I had 1 u walk right beside the mower with 1 hand
What size is that deck?
I'm starting up in 2020 and I'm torn between getting the 48 or 52.
I'm sure I'll go with the 48 inch.
It makes the most sense.
Gary Cecil Garrison I have the 48 swzt and I love it!!!! It’s amazing on hills
Thanks Jason.
That is an excellent mower and I am going with a Velky on 1st commercial purchase.
I've got to get business first. I'll be starting out with 2 residential riding mowers & 21in Troy-Bilt.
Thanks Jason
I wonder if the wright stander with the duals will hold that hill?
I wouldnt try it.all that weight would slide straight to the ditch lol.grass is slick at these angles.camera doesn't do it justice
You ever consider trying ATV tires or HDAP tires on your walk behind? Oil supply would be my biggest concern on hills like that!
I had them on my small z mower years ago.If you are careful they wont damage turf either....Most engines have enough oil pressure to cycle.Never had a prob :)
Are you trying to say Husqvarna
Have you tried mowing it diagonally? It's steep, I can tell. I live in the mountains too.
To steep on the way down lol.sideways only option.even creeping backwards isnt safe.
I've done steeper slopes than that I used a flymo on a rope
Is that trailer a 14 or 16 ft?
16
@@exterminator1 Thanks! I just picked one up last week! Excited to use her this season
New English accent for me
Hi, are you still using Managemart?)
i did until it quit working
wonder if i could do that hill with my garden tractor... LMAO if i want to die maybe :p
So a 52 holds hill better than a 48
I have a 52 swat not swz. My swz is 48.between those 2 the SWZT is far superior!
it's all "relative", not "relevant"
Professional? Discharge chute directed at the fence line? Blowing debris into landscaping/drainage rocks? Dangerous and stupid.
Where is a fence line? grass doesn't hurt that ditch been doing it for 7 years. Hope your day gets better.
Also no landscaping near there either.
