The Evolution of Backcountry Snowbiking

CLICK for the full story and more snowbike action: win.gs/RennerTimbersled
The snowbike: a seemingly normal motocross bike modified with a front ski and a 10 inch wide track in the back, making for one of the most innovative and versatile snow machines we've ever seen. Professional Snowbike riders Brock Hoyer & Reagan Seig take to the Idaho backcountry with freerider Ronnie Renner to lay first tracks on some backcountry bowls and steep chutes - taking the sport, and the timbersled, to places previously unridden.

To a snowboarder like me this looks like amazing fun! The ease at which you can climb tops and ride down powder is amazing!!

[@Snickerszn]

I know this video is 7 years old also imagine the better tech on it now.

[@jakthesmack]

4:40 That chute is all over the internet on sledding videos. It's in no way a secret. I've seen hours of video from different guys in that exact spot.

[@damianstasek8946]

He took it a little far there lol

[@SpengioDoy]

Love how at 3:20 you talk about doing snow pits and assessing the snowpack and then 3 riders get on the slope at the same time. I think your sport is alright but you have a lot to learn about the backcountry.

[@SamClarkschannel]

+Erik Tibbits Thought the same thing.

[@joellittle4888]

they wewre basically bombing the hill no need to worrie

[@SamClarkschannel]

^famous last words

[@SpengioDoy]

Joel Little it's that type of attitude that's going to get you killed out there man. Avalanches are unpredictable. A deep snow avalanche is one that breaks out the entire snowpack and is often unsurvivable.

[@icree6926]

@@SpengioDoy yeah sorry to break your heart but a snowbike is quite a bit faster, heavier, and more manueverable than a pair of backcountry skis. snow can only roll down a hill so fast

[@Meekerextreme]

They are not YOUR LINES and thus can not be "poached"

[@jakthesmack]

exactly, the big chute at 4:40 is one of the most famous spots in winter powersports.

[@JoshuaLTRyan]

No kidding.

[@americanswang95]

easy guys he has to make himself out to be a unicorn.if it were me I would poach there girls while they are jerking off there ego up in the freeze ...cause anybody that knows that area knows that's not that chumps lines .

[@buddtwin2]

Exactly

[@spiritrider7657]

Have never seen this before - stunning in a big stones kind of way - thanks for sharing!

[@megamaser]

This looks awesome, but honestly I think down the steeps, skiing is probably more of a thrill. But the fact that they can keep hitting those lines over and over in the backcountry, that's what really sets this apart.

[@theangrypainter826]

Holly crap ! Everything about this sport and all the skills and the machines is amazing

[@emilyandjeffy9095]

RonRen, Awesome video bro. Cant wait to see you ride again.. Keep killin it

[@OneTwo-jv8oq]

awesome and seeing more than 3 seconds of a clip would also be awesome

[@throttleboi5040]

Wow this is awesome would love to see that more often👌🏼

[@heretohear8662]

Damn! You're making like the snow again and the shit just finally melted. Great Vid!!!

[@coltperkins2881]

If I was 20 years younger I would be all over that. You guys rock .

[@JP-ho4kr]

For how much time I spend snowboarding/snowmobiling I kinda feel dumb I haven't really seen these kinda bikes. They look fun as hell man, can just imagine rippin' some pow turns on one of these!!!

[@coadydonahue9632]

theyve only really become popular within the last few years. its a conversion kit you can get for any bike you like. its called a timbersled

[@JP-ho4kr]

Cool man, they look really fun for sure!

[@sAINT898]

Backcountry of McCall Idaho. "I don't want you to poach our lines." - Tool

[@dvalasek27]

Up towards Warren? Someone said West Mountain but I thought it looked more like north of Payette Lake

[@yeaheverday]

GnarlyBoots hahahahahahahahahahah yeah you right

[@kiwishamoo6494]

Ahhh, so much serenity

[@swampfox1953]

Take your life in your hands. Give me a break. My friends and I were doing this sort of stuff in the back country of Montana on snowmobiles 45 years ago. I can remember being in the remote back country many miles from the nearest home in powder so deep and light the sleds could hardly make any headway. Winter camping in the back country was another favorite activity. I hate to break it to you guys but you are not breaking new ground. I do have to admit the snow bikes look like big fun. We used to hit the back country on motorcycles before the snow came and that was a lot of fun but the snow bikes look like a whole different experience.

[@vitalyabramenko8641]

Your grand ma's and grand pa's was doing the same 200-300 years ago. What are you trying to say there? Let them do what we are not able to do. They are ont the top of us

[@motokurort]

I do not understand how for such a cool video you can not like!!!!!

[@bweed8622]

dude! that's the coolest s##t I've seen in a long time! hats off to ya ! I want a bike again. just to set er up like that! that looks like crazy fun! happy trails!

[@matthewaspray1730]

Great filming

[@HoldFastFilms]

[@nathanielredbull1207]

[@medaphoar1337]

[@mauricele7676]

[@Wupix]

Damm, this is insane!

[@vinchoucha007]

[@CoreyCat4]

I remember this one game I played as a kid called _Sled Storm_, and one of the characters have sleds which actually are snowbikes!

[@mrkstud]

Those things are sick .didn't even know they excist.i was just browsing motorcycle vids n stumbled up on this. sorry yea I live under a rock. born n raised in miami,fl haven't even seen snow lmfao

[@frankenstein3163]

Great video. What's your thoughts on a revers trike with the snow bike mod ? Would it work beater on trails ? I'm trying to shop for a toy for my micro camping kit. It's like van life. Les is more.

[@kurtmartin2580]

That look's like so much fun omfg would I ever like to try riding one for sure.Hell Ya my Canadian Brother's,awsome vid Cheer's

[@tommygreze]

[@seanroberts2470]

[@theWANAB3]

"Because you might come poach our lines," because there isn't enough Earth for anyone outside your circle?

[@Pit186]

Very nice! 👍👍👍

[@KevinJohnson-jc9ju]

This looks frign cool, curious how do they ride across open water??? Ive seen skidoos do it but not these beast

[@Aint1S]

[@ml2trick]

Way Cool. Too much fun.

[@kylesmith457]

sick!!

[@roelr7604]

Sick!!!!

[@murphaa9564]

Snowmobiling is hard enough...I can't imagine how hard that is...especially if you don't ride dirt bikes well...

[@HPIRacer55]

More snowbike Videos!

[@nonymouserawr]

Amazing! I didn't know such a thing existed. I want one. Where do I sign up?

[@shultz503]

it's all about progression of the sport. OneLoveOneCommunity

[@BarbaRuiva]

amazing

[@TheRealKalEll]

SO DOPE

[@lucdemaison9747]

La vidéo était trop bien et classe

[@buddtwin2]

A true professional athlete is motivated to help people find better spots and to enhance ones riding abilities. They are not out there trying to keep spots all to them self. It’s not your land nor your line.

[@teogorgone1338]

Très Impressionnant! Je te

[@logan8191]

they should have done more pov shots

[@ExtremeEnduroCross]

massiv :) we want it!

[@brendo2005]

cant wait to see them start hitting cliffs on these things!

[@InlineDownhillVancouver]

4:37 That's fucking nuts! Massive props.

[@McNamEvan]

Now there needs to be a race. Up the mountain down the other side

[@lazyboy1060]

It's all fun and games until that front sled goes under a big branch or something.

[@Never24Summer]

+21st Century Exactly what I was thinking

[@TheOfficialKC]

+21st Century I don't recall that being a big deal with snowmobiles, wouldn't be any different with a bike.

[@sinistershelbyy648]

they actually don't tuck the front end that much... I've grown up riding sleds and just last winter rode my first timbersled. they take a little getting used to but once you figure how they ride it's pretty easy. they don't sink in the snow that much, pretty much just float on the snow.

[@bob15479]

Yeah if you think about it the front of a bike doesn't have much weight on it

[@matthewmuellner]

Not an issue I'd worry about. I'd be worried if the thing broke down being way the hell up there. What are you gonna do then? Cant exactly push it & just walking back without it to wherever your car is could be a dangerous proposition to say the least. Only issue I ever had with sled ski's ever - from the 70's to now - is culverts. You mostly ride the back & the front has little weight on it.

[@plasun86]

Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a FALL.

[@kansascowboy5721]

That's awesome How can 178 people dislike this video?

[@AkMedMan1]

Notice that they spent very little time showing them going uphill...

[@greenpepper-re5hh]

AkMedMan1 😆

[@samtoshner8002]

There's a reason snowmobiles have twice the engine displacement as the dirt bikes they're using...

[@Lonezewolflonewolf]

Red bull show me the way of the beginners bike for dirt biking.

[@gmflick]

Omg I so want to do this!!!!!

[@javanbirdbluerusselling5285]

Ahh... To be a rich man..... Dream dream dream.👍👍👍

[@mik_maccc]

"not gonna tell you our location" get over yourself.

[@leloodallasmultipass]

you're just jelly of his lines, brah

[@mik_maccc]

leloodallasmultipass not really. i have my own areas to go to :)

[@leloodallasmultipass]

***** I bet you poached them. Hence this guy's secrecy.

[@mik_maccc]

leloodallasmultipass haha yes that's exactly what i did. because i don't even ride in Idaho lol..... yet

[@leloodallasmultipass]

***** YOU'RE PUTTING EVERYONE ON EDGE WITH YOUR POACHING

[@combattractor]

I must try it

[@SennaLeith]

i need to do this

[@bob15479]

Wow. Wih the big ole track on the back they can go straight down stuff.

[@blakcblakc6316]

Пацаны спасибо за видео кайфанул вместе с вами!!!!))

[@martyshred]

[@TheAdoringFan7]

[@theventagehd5691]

Wie geil ist das denn? *~*

[@willhaggett9044]

I'm tryna poach some of there top secret lines in Idaho pfft. Shits definitely gnarly, but seriously these guys think they are way to cool.

[@drewbehr]

[@mrmidnight32]

Will Haggett ikr, they act like they invented a new sport. It's fucking snowmobiling 😂😂

[@drjerkigan]

New goal in life, poach this dudes lines

[@James-oz5so]

Out of the 1m views I bet 1000 people have a snow bike setup, and 10 of em have the ability to try to go to Idaho and ride the same place these dudes already did. And 0 will

[@greenpepper-re5hh]

Will Haggett ...they are THAT cool 😁

[@JustTex]

4:40 is just sick

[@nickpearce5090]

Snowmocross!

[@McNamEvan]

[@kozimoto123]

would love to see a cr500 with this set up

[@uiuiuiuiuiuiuiuiuiuiui4203]

how fucking cool is this!!! ^_^

[@DaBears08]

Looks really fun and cool but not to me it's a different type of thrill than skiing/boarding/mountain biking . Love the human motor sports but this looks great and would love to see it grow

[@shmee2571]

SLED STORM BABY

[@tonttusaatana3265]

What bikes these guys used? 450's or what? Does 450cc have enough power to get all out of this timbersled package?

[@mauriziozanotti123]

Tanta roba

[@MaseratiChris556]

Ronnie lives in AZ??

[@lennuings]

I wish these types of bikes where in Motorstorm Arctic Edge

[@brandonwagner4719]

COOL

[@rickeyandres7891]

those things aren't very fun hill climbing but it's definitely a lot more fun going down hill than a sled. you can go through narrow gaps sleds can't and it's just a completely new feel

[@santicuervas]

What a way to fuck up the powder...

[@ddroutdooradventures8409]

Whats the name of your bike subie moto

[@samcarrs]

How to keep those radiators from clogging with snow???

[@BLURby84]

I'm willing to test one for you
