The Ascender platform with the new Ctec motor is one wicked backcountry sled. Can't wait to throw my leg over one next week

my "cat" buddy sent me that link yesterday. My response was, "why is there 2 throttle let offs on the 850?"
listen to the engine at 57 sec mark you hear a fade and accelerate, and the same at the 1:03 mark.
Not saying the cat is bad not saying it was out climbed either, seems like the backshift was tested twice on the Doo?

Nope not at all. Could careless about which sled can do what for which guy. All I care is that the one I ride fits me best. Don't care what paid sponsors have to say. I just notice things.

Doo had to let off the throttle as to not hit pinecones too fast and snap the bulkhead:spit:


If you listen and watch the Cat run at 2:20, 2:23 and 2:27 he had to let off the throttle to keep the front end down and maneuver through the terrain, the same as on the Doo. The Cat did cross the Doo's sidehill trench and then his climb trench. So we'll say the Cat only highmarked him by 5 feet instead of 15:first:

There may be some truth in that.
