^i agree snowmobiler. i can see this sled wanting to turn you up hill on a steep sidehill. so you will just shoot up to the top then and wait for your buddies on their old timey heavier sleds to zig zag up. maybe tear up the next bowl while you wait.
buradnt style tree riding is not where sledding ends. look at what caleb kesterke is doing on his cat these days and how many followers hes getting.
The irony to what you just wrote is palpable. You just said burandt style tree riding is not where sledding ends then referenced Burandt 2.0 (Kesterke - who I agree is ahhhmazing).
Both are technical riders. And I bet you dollars to donuts Kesterke does not ride Alpha One outside of what Cat makes him do to keep his sponsorship.
Turn up the hill all you want. Guys don't zig and zag to be cool, but to get up stuff you can't just go straight up...
