Proper Tie Down of Your Snowmobile
- Thread starter Norona

Good video Dave not sure if you are BC legal for tie down might want to check with the local authorities? Besides your tie down system I use a ratchet strap to hold the sled forward and another one through the track at the back, this makes for a 5 point tie down. Not sure if even that meets the requirements for the BC (bring cash) enforcers hut it would be good to know?
Is there a video on the proper way to burp this sled? :face-icon-small-dis
3 points of restraint required in BC.

I think that is true in On also.

Super clamps only touch the truck/trailer in 2 places, between the skis and besides the skid, they may touch the sled in three places, but... Seems that if a cop wanted to pick nits, you should have a strap on the sled somewhere.
The front superclamp hold each ski down to the truck, that is two points. Cheers dave
Wow. So what you are saying is that we need to be putting our sleds on a deck or trailer that they can fit on, and then do something that makes sure that they don't fall of that deck or trailer? Thanks for the help!

That's not how the law looks at it..... You've only got two with the Superclamp system pictured.
100% correct.
Front Superclamp is a 1 point contact being the Superclamp itself only anchors in one spot to the deck.
So in my enclosed it’s load it, lock the brake on(unless I forget) and go. Never had a problem. In my little top cap Triton I do have superclamps on the skis.
The rule for quads is 4 tie down points, for sled there is nothing stating specific number of points. The load should not be able to move forward, backwards, side to side or up or down, using Superclamp's only is fine, it is a good idea to also lock the brake. Ride On!:face-icon-small-hap
