Hey guys,
Me and my friend do some backyard Sno-x freestyle. I don't really have too many good pics and I don't know if you guys would be interested in seeing sleds, but I thought I'd post this one of me messing around doing a wheelie on my ZX 440. The only way I found to wheelie my 440 was to do it in water. Ride in, Let it sink and then FREAKIN PIN IT. Pretty fun, but ya get soaked! If you guys want, I have a few more backyard feestyle pics of poor dudes with shovels, doin the best they can:D :D My boy Channy has the most Freeride sled skills I've ever seen:macho Frank.

How slow can you go like that before sinking?

Hey superchris,
I'm not sure what you're asking, but if you slow down, you sink. To stay afloat you have to keep it pinned wide open. To do the wheelie, you have to ride into the open water, let of the gas till it starts to sink and then pin it. It is pretty fun and I stood it straight up a few times that I didn't get a pic of. I have some more pics of us messing around I have to dig out and scan.:D Frank.

FT250r,
I will post some more..I have some pretty decent pics. I don't really have any good ones on the comp right now. I will post 1 or 2 that I have now. I will scan some of the better ones and post them soon. What kind of sled did you get? Sledding is my favorite and ironically, I no longer own a sled! Frank.

yo' you know all you gots to do is the everest running and we're hitting bj like we did the first time. the everest man, i pulled a no-footer- to no hand landing with that heap of metal.

TRUTH

My god in heaven, you did!!! You hear that guys? He pulled a no footer to no hand lander on a 1980 Ski-doo Everest!!! Hahaha, I forgot about that, heck, I have that on video!!! You think you could clear the BJ step up? How big was that?:confused:

B2000laster
02-03-2005, 12:41 PM
hmmm, it would be a one run deal. after the landing i think the everest would go back in time and be in the dealership it came from. but, it was what? 45 ft i think. or 35 or something. i remember the hood popping off after i landed it one time! it was funny as hell!!!!!

TRUTH
02-03-2005, 12:59 PM
Yep, 45 foot step up, thats what it was! I wonder if it is still there? Sweet! Yeah, I remeber the hood popping off, remember the "drunken throat chop" move you did what was up with that?..Guys, this fool even jumped his sled and did a no footer on DIRT in JULY!! Broke his sled, but it was pretty sick!!! I am going to scan some pics now so we aint spammin':blah:

i would sooo pay to ride my sled on a track. i know i have the potential to do great. i just don't have the resources to do it. where's that at? anywhere in wisconsin by any chance?

Hey 400EX,
Sweet pic man!! Is that an 04 snopro? Looks like a nice sled and a sick jump!! Here is another of B2000Laster, what did you call this one Channy? The "chakyattacky look backy" HE LANDED THIS!!! It looked sick!!

That looks like that would hurt if he landed it like that. Lets see some more sled pics, these are pretty sweet.

Hey Lazer,
Thanks!!! He actually landed that pretty darn smoothly, I have it on video..B2000 has a real smooth style, so he can land things last minute and have it still look nice. He did a no footer on a jump once when he got about 2 inches of air and it looked cool, if I did it, it would have looked like a karate kick!:) When he did that "look back/point back" he did it in one smooth motion and landed it and rode away, it looked pretty cool, especially considering the crappy jump I built for him! Here is another of him, doing a huge no hander. B2000 hasn't even ridden a sled this year, it makes me sick to see so much potential just wasting away:grr: I wish you were out here brother!!!!!

yeah, the one where i was pointing back, i actually hit my chest on the bar. and i think i ran into some trees that were ahead of me. but, somehow i still managed to stay on the sled and not fall off (like my very first ride on a 440)

i know man, if i had more than 2$ i'd be up there right now making a jump in that field next to the house doing a 655ft quintuple jump. i'd be doing my can-can that i've always wanted. no footers, and no handers are too easy. i can do them all day long, without even breaking a sweat. ha, remember the ARCTIC-X? wish that one was documented on camera.

Hahaha,
Yeah guys, B2000's first ride on a 440:p He got on my ZX, rode off about 30 feet, hit a little bump and fell off!!! There goes my new ZX ghost riding into some trees!!! Good one master freestyler!;)
I wish the "Arctic X" was documented too, imagine if we just had a video camera back then!!:grr: Why didn't we document ANYTHING!? Remember my failed superman attempt?
Later I will post a pic of the after affects of the famous B2000 "X":D I have to look through my old pics and dig it out. The "Arctic X" is very similiar to the dirtbike trick called a "nothing" where you completely let go of the machine when you are in the air. B2000 did one in 02' on his ZR500 CCE on a little jump that launched over a road. It was HUGE and looked sick, but his sled didn't feel too good afterwards....:blah: Channy, what do you call this one??

culooking,
I saw that same episode, what a dumb*****!!! He wasn't even wearing a helmet!
Channy,
The "Answer" I likey!!!!!!!!! I'm working on getting some pics of you frestlyin' on the Everest with the "drunken throat chop" and all that ....
Here is a pic that shows what it feels like to go huge when you have a crappy jump and an even crappier landing!!!:eek2: Sorry Chan, I'll hook you up with some better hits soon!!! What do you think of a 60 foot table top? GROOMED... Hmmmmm?
