I recently purchased my first old sled for this season, havent ridden since I was a kid in the 90s and I've found myself always watching your videos. Ive been riding motorcycles my whole adult life but I had a lot of questions about sleds and you've helped answer a lot of them. Thanks for all your help from a new subscriber!
Hi Celticguy...Congratulations on the sled. Hope you have a great season. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Definitely alot more new riders this year, me and my buddies all just got our first sleds!
Congratulations. Welcome to the sport.
So happy your back. This warm weather where I am sucks
It will snow. Have faith!
Great to see you're back! That gear looks like great quality. Should be a comfortable, warm year. Looking forward to the content.
Hi N. Thanks! Good to be back. I'll try to accommodate!
Just wanted to say thank you for your channel and the time you give for reviews , I have been pondering which helmet to get for myself and after all my research it took your experience to steer my decision for what I wanted . Take care buddy and thanks again for your videos and bloopers bwahahahaha keep up the good work and may we see you on the trails
Thanks Paul. Glad you enjoy them.
Glad your back...always entertaining and informative.
Nice 509 gear. I'm sure it will serve you well.
Good to be back, no-name-guy ;) Thanks! I like it so far.
Ahhhhh your backkkk. So happy. I just bought a whole new set of 509 gear as well. Love the range jacket and bibs along with my new helmet. So excited to try it all out this year!!
Nice! Congrats on the new gear. Check in and let me know how you like it!
I just picked up my first sled. It's the same as your old sled and I have been watching so many of your videos leading up to the season. I can't wait to learn more and get ready to ride
Welcome to the sport! I hope you get lots of snow. Hope some of the videos help you out.
@@MyOldSled I'm down in Wisconsin so im hoping for snow. But definitely your videos help a lot
@@dylansmith697 have to come to u.p. If you get the chance
@@Gendronk hopefully I can go up there sometime this year. Any spots you would recommend
Welcome back David! I was hoping you would bring the snow with you. :)) Cheers!
Trying!
Glad to see you are back for the 2020-2021 season!
Hey SG, glad to be back. Still waiting for enough snow for riding. New video out in a day or two.
Great to see you back! Send some snow to Newfoundland !! All we got is rain and warm temps! Looks like nice gear man will be checking it out! Stay safe!
Great to be back Newf. Hang in there my friend, if you're in Newfoundland, I'm sure there's some snow in your future. Thanks for waiting!
Glad to see your back, I'm looking forward to seeing a video on the helmet
Hi Dakota. Good to be back! Thanks for waiting!
Great video. Just bought my first sled. I've spent the last few hours watching your videos. Great Channel! Cheers
Thanks lucas! Welcome to snowmobiling. What did you buy?
@@MyOldSled Thanks! We got a 2011 Arctic Cat F8 EXT. Really enjoying it!
Welcome back Dave. I just bought the 2021 509 R4 IGNITE Black Aura helmet. Can’t wait to try it out this season. I owned every version of the Skidoo Mod helmets Mod 1,2 & 3. So looking forward to trying something different..
Hi S. Very nice looking helmet. I love the look of the 509 helmets.
Haha good to see new videos. Chatted with you a bit had my one sled for a few years and got a newer one. Gonna be the first year on the trails in a long time
Hope it’s a good one.
Good to see you back! Missed your videos man! Greetings from Muskoka, ON! Gotta come up and do some trails here if covid permits :)
Hey Austin. Thanks for waiting and watching. Muskoka must have some nice trails.
Welcome back! I have an old leather suits that weight about 25 pounds and is uncomfortably warn when it's over -10°c. This looks like a great option for a lighter and more layered suit.
Thanks Charles! I often wondered about leather gear. My brother says it’s warm though I’ve never tried it for sledding. I know from experience it’s protective when you come of a motorcycle!
Hi David I just ordered the R4 helmet can’t wait to try it out. Thanks for the review on the helmet it helped a lot on the decision on it.
I've had a chance to ride with mine and I stand by my review. I couldn't get it to fog up, even not plugged in. comfortable, warm, I think you will be happy.
I'm so excited for this winter here in Minnesota. Only issue is theres no snow in the forecast here. I also just bought a new sled, go figures. Cant wait for another winter and great videos from you.
Joey! How's it going. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope you end up with lots of snow this season!
I bet there will be a lot of new riders this winter. Buying a new or used sled seems to be a challenge this year as a lot of dealers are sold out. Thx for the videos you make and looking forward to more. Thx
Hi Farmark. I would think that would be the case. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope its a great season for you.
I'am going to check them out I wearing chocko equipment great show keep it up .
You are looking good this season in 509!
Thanks. Its great gear.
Great to see your videos back!
Hi Rob. Thanks for waiting Sorry I'm a little late this year.
I have the same helmet and love it! Love to see ya back!
Hey thanks Colin. Love to be back.
Great review. Glad your doing good. Will definitely checkout 509. Most of my gear like me is too old to talk about!
Thanks glad you liked it. Definitely worth checking out.
Welcome back Dave, always nice when a company lets you try out their gear!
Looking forward to see the videos this year
Looking forward to making some!Thanks for waiting
Awesome man! Looking forward to the full helmet review. Gotta upgrade from the Mod 3!
Thanks Corey. That will be next after the one I'm just editing. Thanks for watching!
Great video. I wear FXR gear aside from a CKX Mission Helmet. Also have a 509 Altitude helmet and Sinister goggles. Love the 509 for most days- even the cold ones- but the convenience of the mission is awesome.
Hey thanks Steve.
Like a few other's nice to see you back Dave with some more sled stuff, always enjoy your video's , It's a lot of work making them so Thanks, and hopefully we all have a good season
Hi IOM. Thanks for the welcome back. Really glad to hear you enjoy them. It is a lot of work and you never know until you put them out there if people like them. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know.
I have a 509 helmet I got last year. It’s very nice. I’m impressed.
I have mixed gear. Katahdin jacket and gloves, castle bib and boots. Always get black and grey. That way when you get a new sled the colors don’t matter.
Good point!
Glad to see a new video!!! Waiting on snow like everyone else!! I bought FXR jacket last year and I love it! On one of my rides it was single digits and I was warm and comfortable! I bought FXR bibs and a FXR Torque Evo X helmet this year and can’t wait to try them out!
Congrats on the new gear. Hope you get lots of snow.
I have only owned a pair of 509 gloves. Nothing bad to say about 509. Wicked warranty and customer service. The gloves ripped at the end of the season and because it was the end of the season, that line was no longer available. The rep told me to contact him in the fall when the new line was in stock and he sent me a brand new version of the gloves that ripped. To remember and keep track of that a year later goes to show they really take customer service seriously. Nice to see!
That is pretty great service! So far I don't have anything bad to say either.
@@MyOldSled Great videos David, we are hopeful your area opens up this winter. Would love to check out the Bruce. Cheers
I switched from Ski-Doo gear to Klim about 3 years ago. The jacket and bibs are not as warm as the Ski-doo by themselves but the Klim gear is designed more to be layered. For me that works well because of the range of temperatures we are riding in over the last 10 years. some trips are below -0 and others are in the mid 30's F. Layering keeps me comfortable in all conditions. Rode northern Ontario a few years ago and one of the mornings was -33. added an extra layer and was comfortable. I have not tried the 509 gear. Great video
Dave! How are ya? I havent ridden with it yet, but standing around shooting video gets cold. I’m pretty sure it’s going to be warm.
@@MyOldSledDoing well, the 509 looks really well made, I think you will enjoy the new technology
@@MyOldSled doing well thanks, hope you are. I think you will enjoy the new technology gear
This is my first year snowmobiling for exactly those reasons!
Welcome to the sport Taegan! Hope you get lots of snow.
Good to see you back! Love the videos. It would be cool to see some riding videos on top of the reviews and tips.
Thanks Asher! I will when we get some snow. I haven't focused on them because there are so many motor vlogging channels out there and I try to do something a little different, but will be adding some for sure.
Helmet shopping I'll check this one out for sure. Should call the ski doo polaris and see if they will donate a sled to the channel. Worst they can say is no lol. Good vids man look forward to the helmet review.
Definitely one you want to check out. Thanks for watching.
Welcome back Dave! I missed the channel. Great review as usual. Looking forward to some more snow so you can give it a field test.
Hi Scotsman! Thanks for the welcome. Yes, we’re all looking for snow!
509 is good quality! youll love the fid-lok helmet strap!
That is cool....don't give away all my content ;)
Heck ya glad to see snow seasons here great vids
Thanks Beau!
I wear 509 sinister x6 goggles, tactical helmet and 2020 evolve jacket. Fxr x cross pro boa boots I like it all so far we will see how it holds up. Good video
Heya Pedro...thanks for watching and commenting. Sounds like a good set up. What kind of riding do you do?
Great video. I wear CKX floatation suit 2 piece. I got it last year on clearance but love how it fits. One thing it doesn't have I wish that it did is the magnetic closers. Let me know how well they work in the colder weather
Hi Jeremy. Thanks for watching and commenting. Yeah I love those closures too. It was pretty cold when I was shooting the video, but I I believe most types of magnets preform better in the cold. The atoms in the magnets vibrate more slowly in the cold, and they align more uniformly and this makes them actually work better.
Been riding the last 3 days. Got a decent snow storm. Tested out my new FXR jacket and snow pants. Best things ever
Where abouts?
@@MyOldSled Wolfeboro New Hampshire
Good video, thanks.
Glad to see your back and thank u for my new helmet choice
Good to be back. Let me know if you grab one.
Yess your back!
Good to be back! Thanks for the message!
Good to see you again. The price of used sleds has sky rocketed, people on Kijiji are asking almost double the price for sleds that didn't sell last year. It'll be interesting to see if they sell this year.
Good to see you too Dave. I’m always surprised by what some people ask for an old sled. I also find as i get older that everything seems expensive lol. I remember when a chocolate bar was 35c.
Cool helmet man. I love the brp gear but it does have its quirks.. stinks to admit it lol
I agree, I love my BRP gear as well. Nothing is perfect. Theres always room to improve. To be honest my skidoo stuff is older and I'm sure they have improved.
Your back! Nice helmet btw
Hi Waylen. Thanks! And thanks for watching.
Hi Dave, thanks for another great video!! One question - what size jacket did you go with?
Thanks Paul. I’m 5’9 170 and I went with a medium. I think I’m kind of in the middle of their sizes. It feels slightly on the big side, but it’s a different cut than I’m used to, with a longer jacket.
@@MyOldSled FYI Dave, I have the R-Series jacket and a set of Range bibs that I started using last season. My jacket is a size large and fits great, however with the bibs on it is very tight and restrictive. (I am 6' @ 179 lbs) I just ordered a Range jacket size XL hoping for a looser fit with the bibs. I will let you know how it fits/feels for a comparison between the R-Series size large and the Range size X-large.
Like I mentioned above, I have both 509 jackets. and after spending the day out on the trails, (low 20's in the northeast U.S.,) my personal opinion is the Range is my go-to jacket. Plenty warm and a better fit.
Great videos, I had the old original modular 1 from doo aswell , awesome helmets, mine just wore out. Almost impossible to find a good used sled for sale this year and dealerfloors are empty, could get sketchy on the trails with all the new riders out there. Becareful you don't fall into the Snowtrax model and sell your sole to the advertising dollar, stay independent.
Hi Susan. The channel is something I do on my own for the enjoyment of it. This is not a paid endorsement and no one has input into my content. Whether I buy a product or someone sends it to me to try out, I just say what I think. My only interest is providing useful information, I enjoy making them and it’s fun connecting with people from all over. Thanks for watching.
I'm buying a Timbersled soon and looking for a new helmet. How does this plug in? Just wondering if I will be able to hook it to my bike or if im better off with some heated goggles.
HES BACK !!!!!!!!!!! This is a good day.
Aw, thanks.
Great video. Personally I just don't go out in anything below -20c. I like to stop and have a snack and drink. If you do that when its too cold your hair and face start to freeze solid. Then its uncomfortable when you put your gear back on.
i ride a 509 allied monosuit (ski-doo ex-2 helmet) and when I'm low on layers inside I noticed a cold air draft coming down the back of my neck and chilling my back! i have a few nicks in my knees as well from the running boards! let us know if you get cold knees that is also something I struggle with!
I can honestly say I don't recall ever having cold knees...but I'll let you know. Thanks for watching.
@@MyOldSled yeah mabe the tempatures i rode in where overly cold when cold knees ocurred!
been watching your videos, i am 50 and trying to decide if i should buy my first sled. live in Winnipeg any suggestions?
Yes, I suggest you buy a sled :)
David I am more of multi winter sports person, ice fishing and snowmobiling - is the 509 gear knees waterproof and is there a floatation factor built into their suits. If not do you know if a brand that provides these types of clothing?
Hi David. I would say it would keep you warm and reasonably dry, but to be honest, it is designed for riding. It is 10k/10k which indicates how high a column of water can be (10,000mm) before it penetrates the fabric...this is a decent rating, suitable for most winter sports, but to be totally waterproof fabric needs to be 28k. The only thing I can think of off hand is Gortex. Of course all fabrics have pros and cons. There are jackets with floatation out there, I believe CKX makes one. Personally I avoid ice, but that would make ice fishing tough. Thanks for watching.
I’m so glad you’re back!! Love your videos. I ride fxr mission x gear and a fly F2 carbon helmet. Been thinking of buying that 509 delta R4 ignite. Can’t wait to see you review!
Its awesome.
Is the inside phone pocket between your body and the insulation of the coat? One poor design of that gray BRP coat is your phone is outside of the insulation layer and gets too cold on a long ride.
Yes, the pocket is inside of the insulation, you can see it where I point out the head phone jack. There is also a pocket in the bibs which would a phone would fit in.
They all make good sled
Skidoo guys: well acually no
I’d never say that to someone. Personally I like skidoo, but there are lots of great sleds out there.
@@MyOldSled this comment was a stab at my best bud. Who calls every thing else garbage
No worries. I think its great to have a sled you love. i just think some people are a little inconsiderate with that. if someone asks “hey what do you think I should get” I think its fine to say “Well i really like the mxz from skidoo” But I think about someone who saved up and got a deal on a Polaris and some schmuck tells him or her that Polaris sucks. Just not how I am...but I like Skidoo :) That said there are some Polaris sleds I’d love to have.
I have a question- how do I safely unload my sled from a truck bed with or without a ramp. (My ramp is sketchy)
Btw 509 send me aqua and fuchsia
Hi Sasha, I just got a truck and haven’t done any of that yet, so I cant help you there, yet. I think a trailer is a safer route, or one of those ramps that pivot up onto the bed and slide in...
I know some riders back up to a mound of snow so its not as much of a drop...
I still dont have any snow where im at
Fingers crossed for you...great name btw.
What do you think about a 1998 ski doo Formula III ? 3900 km similar to your sled?
Lots of people seem to have them and like them. Is that a 700 triple?
@@MyOldSled yes it is. What does the triple mean? I spoke with the guy and the sled has been in his family since day one. They just don't use it enough.
www.kijiji.ca/v-snowmobile/saskatoon/for-sale-1998-formula-3-700/1540839452?.google.android.keep&
Triple is 3 cylinders. Sounds like a good machine.
@@MyOldSled thanks loving your videos they seem to suit me and my needs.
Are you from Ontario
Yes, you?
You said (they sent me) how do i get free gear?😂😂 I'm wearing a pair of boots a buddy gave me literally 20 years ago a pair of carhartt bibs i got for Christmas 5 years ago and a really old carhartt coat that was given to me a few months ago. Oh and i have no helmet this year, that was a old motorcycle helmet but i let a guy borrow it and his friend ran it over😢
Well, first you need to build a channel.....and then I think you should get your friend to buy you a new helmet...Seriously though, most of the gear I wear and talk about I purchase, but from time to time a company will provide products to you-tubers like myself or people with Instagram followings etc as part of their social media marketing. Sometimes they contact me me, other times I'll reach out to them if I think something will make an interesting video. I am not paid for videos, and the companies or individuals who send me items to test have no input into the content, though I occasionally reach out for input on technical questions. I always try to provide an objective and balanced opinion. Carhart is a good durable product...Get a helmet before you get hurt....and stop lending your gear out.
Thanks for watching!
Are you in Ontario?
No im in the usa, new york state
Fxr is the best
Hi SM. I haven't ridden with any but I like the look of some the FXR jackets. Glad you found something you like.
Klim is better but FXR is still good.
Hi MTMN. I think the 509, and klim are both decent products, each of them has different features and advantages. Styling and look matter to riders too, and thats personal so everyone will have a different view.
@@MyOldSled Yes that's the beauty of it, there is lots of options to suit everyone's taste .
My first complaint on 509 r4 helmet; looking to get wife a new helmet, her bibs pink and white, nothing that looks womenish. Please pass that on too them. I would buy a pink and white today if they had one.
I saw white and black on their site, I’m not a fashion blogger but wouldn’t that go ok? ... you should reach out to them, I’m sure they review customer feedback.
@@MyOldSled unfortunately not for my girl!!
