Keep us updated. That's a pretty lucky kid to get a ride like that.

I'm serious about buying a set of boards if you make some to sell. Have a 212 in my kids Polaris and the boards would finish it off as a nice little sled. The stock ones are horrible at building up w/ snow. Don't want to muddle up your thread so pm me if it's something you'd do.

That is definitely sweet. I would definitely be interested in a set of boards for a 120 as well. Mine is a 2015 but don't think they have changed any over the years.

Thanks on the boards. Kiddos are very excited!!

Get some aftermarket skis for you build. The stock break very easily (Polaris 120 anyway) and it would be a shame to bend those slick trailing arms.

Sweet build. What kind of rivets are holding the back of the board. Look like they are used for mocking stuff up
