Sending it at Silver Lake! Big air from the YXZ, Maverick, and Wildcat!

[@masonmcfadden168]

These old videos they made remind me of when I was a kid and my whole family would go to Colorado to ride in the mountains.

[@welder100nc]

Nick I think in the Wildcat, I'm going to tell you something that happened to me so it won't happen to you. I was cruising one day at speed and hit the water like I have seen you do on here and hydroplaned and it threw me sideways and rolled me over upside down in a pond. I couldn't get out and my life was fading fast and on the verge of my last breath a guy saw me wreck and happened to roll the machine over and saved my life. Don't know how he rolled it over and he don't know either but for the grace of god he did. I still drive the Wildcat like a bat out of hell but not over or in any water. Great vids and be safe out there boys.

[@SXSBlog]

Crazy story man. I agree on the dangers of skipping across water. Maybe I'll reevaluate it's importance come 2017..?

[@20stubby]

DOUG POPPERFIELD what a blast. Miss these kind of vids with just you guys with your friends Leonardo you are a great color guy. Classic

[@SXSBlog]

More of this is coming brother.

[@venomr6rider]

the driver of the yxz seems like such a nice guy. all of u are. i subbed. you guys seem like real people just having fun like the rest of us. u guys dont have 70k in ur vehicles and i like that. I like seeing regular ppl like us having fun and rippin it out there. crazy save btw! have fun guys!

[@SXSBlog]

Thanks for the comment silverbullet! We agree with you, Doug is a OG good bro! I hope you find our stuff entertaining!

[@davisspeedshop2031]

I ride dirt bikes, but these videos are really relaxed and enjoyable. You earned a sub.

[@SXSBlog]

thanks!!!

[@AdvBrewery]

I hate to say it, but the damn wildcats looked the best in the air. They were flat and seemed composed when they landed.

[@ChampionshipBowling]

The boys were wildin back in the day lol

[@Gymbear-o8q]

DOUG YOU ARE THE GUY WHO GOT IT TOGETHER I LIKE ALL YOU GUYS . HAVE FUN , ONE MORE THING THERES ONLY ONE THING BETTER THAN A COLD BUD THAT WOULD BE A WARM BUSCH .... LOL

[@jeffbabineau8259]

I just stumbled onto your guys' channel the other day. You guys have had some good times. I especially like the Silver Lake videos as I live on the East Coast and I'm no where near sand that I can ride on. Riding on beaches in Nova Scotia is a definite no-no. I seriously thought Doug was hurt after watching the tire-popping jump. Looked fairly violent. Keep up the good work on the videos. I look forward to watching more.

[@SXSBlog]

Thanks Jeff!

[@wannabejeeper]

Another Nova Scotian here loving your videos! Been watching for about a week and almost seen them all. You've got me wanting to trade in my wheeler for a SXS and take it to Michigan!

[@jriz6519]

Very cool vid guys..

[@nickthuringer310]

Nice XRS Rick one hell of a jump

[@sxstexan1956]

Ole Doug Popperfield at it again. Just use his sweet trailer tires. Good stuff guys.

[@SXSBlog]

Thanks!

[@vinniemaxx1590]

Good vid good times keep it up.

[@jakedibbert316]

watched this one at least 5 times, always makes me grin

[@SXSBlog]

That giant jump

[@Jay-gs5xg]

0% discount on all tires at Auto House!! That’s fucking sweet! Thanks for the info!

[@uncle_kyle7149]

In case anyone was wondering, brooks from dune TV is now producing the live feeds for Southern Rock Racing Series. Good guys.

[@SXSBlog]

Oh nice! maybe we'll make it to one this year..

[@5up614]

Good times!! Silverlake is my stomping grounds! Take my mav xds turbo out there and lawn dart it often. 😂

[@SXSBlog]

10/10 would lawn dart

[@5up614]

SXSBlog.com that was before I put the winch on the front and the plow bracket so now I am scared to take this thing for Big Air. Thinking of having shocks reworked by CT race Worx. But still not going to be able to keep up with my cousins x3xrs LOL

[@hillhound523]

Nothing jumps better than the cats

[@SXSBlog]

She was dialed!

[@Gymbear-o8q]

THAT CAT LANDS PERFECT EVERY TIME.. YOU GUYS ROLL BE SAFE

[@bing4332]

Awesome video, go to silver lake myself. By the way thanks for the coupon code used it several times. Great way to save a few bucks!

[@SXSBlog]

We're trying to make coupon codes great again.

[@cooperds4509]

Ok thanks I wasn't sure cause I always see the rzr's with it off but I didn't know if I should thanks lots

[@56hueycobra]

Way to GO Doug and I’m Glad Your Ride is OK 👌

[@davidpaulin]

love that channel .. i'm new to side by sides but i recently bought a 17' X3 xd-s and totally love that thing

[@DOGMEN1969]

The wildcat looked like it flew the best, how do you guys have your suspensions set up? Planning on a silver lake trip from Ontario Canada next year!

[@SXSBlog]

the cat was full stiff with slow rear rebound and quicker front rebound.

[@dbrock0031]

You guys are hell on tires lol.

[@SXSBlog]

Mostly Doug! lolol

[@therowdyboysnetwork2827]

The good ole days

[@alteredstateskustom]

Awesome videos guys! Subscribed I tell all my riding buddies to check out your videos if they want a good laugh!

[@SXSBlog]

Many thanks!! you keep watching we keep making.

[@alteredstateskustom]

SXSBlog.com I'm hooked! I can't stop laughing!

[@izom]

cat flys really nice!

[@SXSBlog]

It has 9 lives as well.

[@charlescorbin2259]

Where are these Dunes at.

[@SXSBlog]

Michigan

[@themfknightrider420]

is that the same truck at 30:50 that sitting in front of dougs shop,

[@DoubleTap702]

What's your overall opinion on the wildcat? I can find them pretty cheap in my area.

[@SXSBlog]

Not bad units. Just can't really push them like the others. Theyre not built as tough.

[@lucasv1308]

how do you get the suspension on the yxz1000r to not buck forward when you jump it?

[@SXSBlog]

That jump in particular was just good. As the video progresses Doug does actually nosedive and nearly roll lol

[@lucasv1308]

have you guys messed with the suspension at all? I noticed for rebound stiffness the stock shocks had 15+ clicks on it. i changed both to 10 and ive noticed its a lot easier to keep the nose level, as long as your foot is hard down.

[@leese5159]

Always wanted to go to silver lake, worth the drive over Hatfield McCoy? Both about 12hrs from me

[@SXSBlog]

Ryan, we haven't been to Hatfield McCoy yet, so it's hard to say. Certainly way different types of riding so it comes down to what your personal preferences are. The dunes are cool, and I'd say worth a 12hr drive to experience them at least once.

[@leese5159]

Awesome thanks for the input, definitely keep up the videos and put hatfield mcoy on the radar for you guys. If you like fast trail riding its the place for it. I defiantly have to give the dunes a shot. Your videos make me want to sell the renegade and get a yxz...

[@brspeedysgarage]

Who has better breakfast food, Ronald or Jack? :). Awesome video.

[@SXSBlog]

We love a good McGriddle.

[@agoodyz]

things to know before u start jumping k case u didn't know .man and in 4 wheel drive when u punch it it will make it perfectly level and it 2 wheel it while raise the front end and obviously when u let of or hit brakes it drops the front

[@michaeljkasnter]

Sweet- How durable is a YXT-1000 Yamaha

[@agoodyz]

as u can see w b en the rear lands first it's smoother and when ur on the gas and the rear lands first it will be insanely smooth

[@cooperds4509]

Say there wasn't water at the dunes I go to would u recommend taking cover off cause we blow like 3 belts per trip

[@SXSBlog]

Ah, yeah I would totally. What machine are you running?

[@izom]

sorry dude- theres def. something wrong- with your clutch setup- belt breakin- or drivin style..or all together...!? ;- () think this guys had the same belt since a year!? right??

[@aliciarice1728]

We are hooked on your videos. #PolarisGirl

[@SXSBlog]

Thanks for watching!

[@michaelkoteskey9441]

What suspension settings was Doug using at silver lake? I'm trying to find the sweet spot

[@SXSBlog]

I don't know if he documented the settings.

[@DUNEATV]

Sweet old body FORD F150!

[@cooperds4509]

Do u run ur wild cat with no clutch cover

[@SXSBlog]

no I like hitting the water too much!

[@THET0DDFATH3R]

Do you know what size tire and how many paddles Doug was running in this video

[@SXSBlog]

26" 8-paddle skat trak extremes

[@DOGMEN1969]

Hell yah!

[@newlion7013]

Have u guys done Rubicon yet?

[@SXSBlog]

No, unfortunately it's tough for us to get all the way over to that side of the country and there is so much to do. One day maybe!

[@hunterwunderlich1137]

On the can ams do nick and Doug run low range sport mod?

[@SXSBlog]

This is Doug, and no, I never had it on mine. Rick does but rarely uses it. Most of our riding is at speeds higher than low range is useful.

[@hasley84]

a lot of wildcats in your group. don't see them to much in Texas.

[@weed34600]

Pull the valve cores next time it will help a bunch!

[@agoodyz]

just for future reference when the front drops in air punch the throttle and it will level out

[@GixxerKris]

You guys need to carry some Michigan tire machine in a can (starting fluid).

[@cooperds4509]

Ok. Well ya we don't drive it like a baby would they are made to have fun like we don't mind to change belts it takes us like 10 mins to change one now so ya I was just asking cause belts are pretty expensive and I was just wondering if u could run with cover off cause it would keep the belt cooler

[@djnemesis82pluss1877]

Wanted to see the expensive pictures

[@codyriley2654]

y don't y'all post recent vids but I like this vid thoe

[@SXSBlog]

real busy and catching up on old stuff. plus we haven't ridden a whole lot in the last few months.

[@SXSBlog]

also recently upgraded computers so the editing goes much smoother!!

[@codyriley2654]

I love all y'all's vids wish more could understand how fun this stuff is

[@KamronLsx]

Liked the vid because of the Trump sticker

[@DUNEATV]

I SAW THE “TRUMP” STICKER AND INSTANTLY SUBSCRIBED!!! MAGA!

[@stephenfoytlin3359]

Sorry but I just cant see why anyone will put a glass windshield on a OFFROAD utv

[@SXSBlog]

Better talk to the OEMs about that. They all make glass windshields for their machines.

[@ericsoderstrom4780]

When are SXS machines going to be equipped with REAL onboard compressors (not 12 volt low cfm compressors) that saved Doug's tires? Somebody needs to start inventing!

[@zeroboy711]

your video's are hilarious!! it must be michigan men always talking about taking a shit! lol go trump!!!

[@SXSBlog]

Thanks for watching!

[@zeroboy711]

SXSBlog.com you guys need to shoot those trucks after they quit running! and btw im in michigan too! i would love to bust out the ar15 to help shoot those trucks!

[@ryrummler8143]

Buds. Wtf happened to Rick?

[@SXSBlog]

Moved south for work. :(

[@cooperds4509]

2014 arctic cat wildcat 1000 x limited

[@SXSBlog]

Yeah, for sure run with the cover off!

[@cswisher92]

Fucking love Rick "fuck Clinton" haha

[@alltexashomeservicesremode6688]

Doug is a good guy i wish you guys close buy I got a dealer i sell atv and utv i need someone can do custom work

[@jasonhull3891]
