It’s really nice to see you trying all the brands! I appreciate you being open minding and willing to try different sleds so we your viewers can get a real on the snow review without having to buy all three our selves! Thank you!

[@ColinWatts]

If you're going to find yourself in the steep and deep late at night, that's the crew you want to be riding with. That turns a suck fest into some fun, but you boys were right on the line of the two, that's for sure! :)

[@johngrabowski2957]

PSA: Back in the early 2000’s when a 144 was huge there were a couple universal rules. 1) you leave the trailer,,, up. 2)always leave the trail,,,, UP 3) when it’s time to go home,,, DOWN 😂😂😂😂 Awesome video, cool sled, amazing riders!!! Thanks.

[@NoZiGoD]

For my 30th birthday, I treated myself to my first sled, a 2013 M8. With the crappy weather we've had over the last few weeks in my region in Quebec, I haven't even been able to try it yet and I get used to it. I watch your videos with great pleasure!

[@0waverunner0]

i just bought myself a 17 m8 and im stoked! problem is, here in colorado, we have only had 2 storms and 55*f days....heres to both of us being able to get out!

[@ak907silvers6]

Hopefully You ride this sled a lot this year and it doesnt get forgotten about by mid season so we can really learn just how good or bad the chassis and sled work with some real extended Use. Im Hoping for the best for arctic cat that this sled keeps them alive and thriving. Only 2 Manufacturers would Suck!

[@Blomdoggy]

This proves that it’s not the machine or a turbo, it’s the rider and technique that gets you places others can’t go!

[@J.Johanson]

Turbos can get you straight up hills na’s have to cut switchbacks in… but overall I agree with you.

The attic cat almost seems as if it’s throttle response is a little better then the others, when you pin that thing it sounds like it’s just there!

[@robinhenley7834]

That's funny, I was thinking just the opposite. How lethargic and poor the cat sounded.

[@Yz4Life]

@@robinhenley7834probably a delay in your device audio, it sounds snappy as a 9R to me

[@gymkhanadog]

@@robinhenley7834 Definitely lethargic. Takes a second or two to really get into that high RPM working range. Wouldn't call it a bog, but it definitely takes a second. Just found a 9r video from this guy and it definitely gets to that top RPM working range faster.

[@GreatLakesLogger]

It's been widely reported as being dead on the bottom and midrange. Ibex said they found about 20hp on the bottom and midrange

[@riverratt8626]

Another utuber is riding both 858 & 9R, he says 858 is lazy on bottom end compared to how hard 9R hits off the bottom end, but he does comment on how quick it still gets up on the snow, I think this is due to track attack angle and rolling resistance of track due to larger wheels and driver diameter. So if Ibex found better clutching then this Cat should be a real weapon, I hope this sled works out and is fairly reliable, the more competition the better for the sled industry, and I ride Poo now and have ridden Doo. I like this new cat and hope it works out good this winter.

[@gabrielguay3485]

Please use the lockout mod on that mountain cat. The atac suspension is a big plus. In big climbs and deep powder is gonna help a ton.

[@MuskokaFreerider]

I have to figure that out yet haha

I always have trouble understanding a headlight delete kit on days like those! Looks like an adventure.

[@eemiharma]

He had helmet light when got dark? And in my opinion good helmet light is better than sleds headlights. But don’t get me wrong I have headlights in my sled and I’m not going to delete them but I still get it why Caleb has delete kit.

[@joelsalmond1788]

@ I get it, I also have a use a helmet light and love it, I like having both as the helmet light doesn’t last forever. I have rode with people who have nothing and come dusk are in a panic to get off the mountain. A decent poop in the morning will save just as much as a set of head lights in weight.

Next time you crash your drone there’s a setting to have your drone beep and it’s actually pretty loud. The only way I’ve been able to find mine before. Also it looked like you did, but I try and use the sensor cameras when flying backwards with PIP to see the obstacles behind you.
