      You missed the snowmobile show in Novi, Michigan. They had a sour patch kids wrapped Polaris 9R 850, along with some older sleds like the kinds you sit down in with a steering wheel and pedals. They have a drawing for a new Ski Doo snowmobile or Lynx snowmobile. 509 did a drawing too along with that. Had a ton of fun there and got a lot of new gear. Hope you get to go there next year. It should be November 3rd to the 5th.

    I'm only 10 min in, and this is by far my favorite video ever from you. I appreciate the fact that you used copyrighted music because they were good and fit with the emotion or the feel, sacrificing ad revenue, just for our enjoyment.
    Big respect and a BIG thumbs up!

    • @MuskokaFreerider
      @MuskokaFreerider  11 месяцев назад +2

      When you're doing something like a season edit, music really makes or breaks the video. So I had to use some good stuff to fit the vibe! To be Fair it is still monetized but I did pay good money to use all these songs

    • @backcountryshitok

    Your videos are such a blend of all the things that make sledding incredible and unique. New sleds are so capable, and you show it all, tree riding, boondocking, jumps, drops, a the super deep days. All that is amazing but you manage to bring the sense of adventure, camaraderie, and even a little safety/education. The industry has plenty of shredders, your different and the best! The one and only, great job Matt! Thanks for the incredible content!

    Amazing video Matt. I love your content. The places that you and your friends take a snowmobile is truly amazing. I can't wait for the upcoming season.
