Great video Ross! Watching again as my 23 Shredder RE Turbo is supposed to ship tomorrow. Left BRP for two years for a 21, then 22 Khaos, been some love/hate, and I am beyond excited for this sled! Ordered 34" arms and Elevates to test as well. Not sure if that's completely stupid but I guess I'll find out,

This is a great video. It's hard to find objective comparisons that aren't primarily focused on downing the competition. I'm a long time skidoo rider and I'm switching to a khaos boost. Not because I don't love my freeride and other BRP sleds. it's because the skidoo shops in South Central Alaska are really bad. It doesn't matter how good the warrantee is if the service isn't there. The polaris shops have a really good reputation for fast and high quality warranty work. I've riden the khaos briefly and it will take some time to get used to , it doesn't feel anything like a skidoo. They feel very rigid while the doo just flexes any way you want it to. Sounds like the lynx is the same way. And I love the concept of handling bumpy trails on the way tob the steep and deep! Maybe I'll jump on one of these next year??? Thanks for the info!

The lynx is the most fun sled in my opinion, I might ride the same or even better on a polaris... but I think many people forget the fun factor in the sled they’re buying, people are just talking about stats and weight when they’re choosing sleds

What brand of riser did you put on the bar to drop it?

Would BRP gain anything by having a quikdrive style belt drive?

It’ll be interesting to see what’s going to happen for aftermarket parts. Do you think you’ll be doing the insane builds like your old boss?

I want to climb stupid steep, conquer stupid deep, and dominate in the trees. Polaris, Ski-doo, or a Lynx?

I’m actually disappointed that Polaris discontinued the switchback XCR with that crazy rear end. Now that the lynx is here.... that design is the next best thing to have a shootout against the lynx. I was hoping to see a 650 XCR switchback. But that design is totally gone from the lineup and I can’t understand why. Now they have 50 different versions of the same thing instead of two platforms. As exciting as the Lynx truly is, I gotta say that $17k price tag is enough to pucker up yer butthole tighter than a snare drum. LoL that’s a lot of money

@nsa6790

3 жыл бұрын

From someone who’s owned both a backcountry from doo and a sba from poo if you’re looking at a crossover sled you need to consider what you ride. If you ride any more than 30% off trail the doo is going to be your better choice. That’s simply because the sba is literally just a trail sled with a longer skid/track. Now if you don’t like the look of a doo, the lynx rave re is also a good choice. Has the 850, has killer suspension for off trail, wide skis that give floatation, an uncoupled skid which helps lots, and can be track swapped to a 1.75” or a 2” track for the ultimate crossover.

Hey Ross. Local shuswap guy here very interested got to spend a little time on the machine on Monday up at crowfoot here from the salesman at rtr in kamloops. Do couple annual grizzly lodge trips. I am an aggressive rider love the technical stuff. Only question I had was the limiter strap adjustment felt like it wanted t keep the skis up all the time the wide skis made it challenging to get it on its side. Think a few tweaks or maybe a possible change of ski would significantly change it style. Any input would be great as I feel I want t snow check one. I love jumps and big hits

@Rossxr

3 жыл бұрын

It all depends on the length of that limiter. I believe most of the demo sleds are let all the way out. so If you change it by one or two holes the front end will be much more tame.. do you maybe ride a skidoo currently? because the t-motion is going to make the sled easier to get on edge. but when you get into the gnarly stuff the rigid skid of the lynx is going yo excel. I would much rather have that then a sled that is slightly easier yo get on edge. you could try different skis but I think its much more the rear end then the ski.
