- I go over several tips for beginner riders that are not commonly talked about on RUclips. All of these are things helped me learn to snowmobile. Use these tips to become a better snowmobiler and a better mountain rider FASTER.
i'm 57 years old and am looking to getting into a snowmobile instead of tracking my new side by side.had tracks on my previous one and had a blast with them.i bought a house on a 17 kilometer long lake so that's where i plan to learn the basics.we have hunderds of kilometers of forest service roads and snowmobile trails that aren't groomed.now i just have to pick the right sled,a crossover or a dedicated trail.leaning towards a backcountry x.most of the guys in my atv club are avid sledders,so i will be using that resource.
Good point about listening to the throttle of good riders. It always tells a story.
Exactly, thank you for watching I appreciate the support!
I just took my rig for its first ride. left the groomed trail after 5 mins for a side trial. 10mins later I decided to cut a fresh trail. I got stuck within 50 meters in 5ft deep snow. Took a bit to get out. Learning experience. As soon as i got home I started googling how to ride a snowmobile.
Haha I did all that 8 years ago on a artic cat powder 600 back when the 13 14 pros were top of the line
I'm still on the axys but I love it
Thanks for all the tips. I am going to start this winter after buying my first sled. I want to do baby steps to learn and minimize as much as possible problems.
You go it!!! We have a podcast coming out Monday that goes more into detail some overall phases for you to think about this year to be able to have a great season!! Thank you for watching!
i think one of the biggest things is. YOU WILL GET STUCK NO MATTER WHAT UR DOING so dont be afraid of that...
Couldn't agree more, that is true no matter how good you are. Just have to relax and learn from it instead of getting discouraged!
Nice points!
Thank you and I appreciate you watching.
Great advice
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
i keep away from the "forest" here in Sweden, that THICK! i would need to bring my chainsaw even if i had 20 years experiance.
now that´s not the case tho. this is my 4th winter with a snowmobil. and my 1st with a modern snowmobile, a Lynx Xterrain 2020, i chose that so i could go both off trail and on trail. its mostly off-trail here i live. Tho this is the first winter with a lot of snow. we had a tone in december and first week in January. during that time it was so much more eazy to ride in a nice flow, turning on edge like then i ride my Yamaha R6 and so on. but now during 3rd week in January it got warmer for some reason and we had thaw for 2 days and some rain. so instead of 60cm powder snow we have 40cm of suger snow with a 10cm ice lid ontop. If i go below 10kph i can brake the ice then on edge. but as soon i go litle bit faster the skii´s and the track dont break though the ice and its getting harder and harder to make turns on edge. or how we say it in Swedish but i translate now, "lay it down"
Still good tips for beginners. being on the mountain and thick forest that the last boss level. keep to the open fields. and if you have at least 50cm of powder you dont break anything then you tip over in the snow and so on then you are practicing turns and where to have your body pos. and learn where you need to have your CoG on the sled. it´s a proper workout if you are a IT-geek like me and not 20 any more. also then you are practicing on turns, your CoG and throttle input you also get to know your sled. how it behaves and not behaves and getting used to your sled.
if you are in a big open space with at least 50cm of snow not much bad can happen if you dont try to set a speed record.
i am lucky tho, i can go out and ride as soon i dont have to work so i can put hours and time easy to learn and practice. the more time you can put in the faster you learn.
so if you need to load up the trailer or the pickup to go riding its going to be less often you can practice and the skill up and there for take longer time. so have that in mind, dont get frustrated if you dont have the ability to ride often.
Thanks man :)
No problem hopefully that helps!!! More coming soon.
I’m a beginner as well and have gotten both of my sons into the sport. We are looking for any advice or pointers in steering in the deep powder, side hill control, and how to determine if the sled each one is riding is the right sled?
Thank you for watching! I have a video Thursday for you!!! Stay tuned!
Ya. All that info bout watching videos is good. No doubt. IMO. The best thing is to take some private lessons. No matter what your trying to learn. From swimming to bird dog training to trigonometry.
So true! If you want to get to a high level then you must learn from high level people…
Some people have natural talent but talent can only take you so far if your fundamentals are lacking
heyy i have a question! im starting to learn to do this sport with my dad (his experience is like 20 years) but when im climbing the hill what i need to know ?
do i go full throttle idk i did my first ride on the mountains this week and i dont know how many time ive been stuck when its stuck to a hill!😅 thank you !
and sorry for my bad english im from canada in quebec!
Learning to ride takes a long time! You just need to go out and try things and learn from your failures. Pretty soon everything will come natural. Work on throttle control, foot positioning, and sidehilling!!
I’m a beginner
And I find it hard when making a turn. Any tips?
I am going to try to shoot a video on this! Stay tuned
You can see how steep it is just look at the trees then you’ll know
I agree, cameras definitely make it look less steep though.
Find a partner. Exercise. Ask questions
i'll be taking my first spin on my first sled in a few hrs, I don't find much of this video of any use to me.
You presume the audience want to ski up the sides of mountains and do back flips.
Up here in Maine, if you are on a trail you stay on the trail.
If you come to a wide open meadow, stay off it unless you have permission, trails are being closed every year due to idiots carving up farmland. I already know that and I have no experience trail riding.
I rode around the garden is all, and I can say these machines don't turn for shit.
You're talking about offtrailing, you're not talking about snowmobiling. That's twi completely different things. Riding on a trail is completely different than offtrailing and ripping through three feet a snow.
Real snowmobiling does not take place on a trail
