It's all relative.
U can sidehill anything with a hand full of throttle.
I call that skidooin it across the hill. Lol because thats what i had to do with my skidoo.
Anyone that says skidoo can side hill like poo and cat, they simply don't ride like those that complain about it.
Yes, it's that simple.
It's about riding style, lots of different styles and not one of them is better or worse than the others, just different.
Enjoy what u do and don't change it because someone says what they do is cooler than what u do.
I went from skidoo to cat for the M8, after riding with the M7s and not keeping up with them in the ravines and treed sidehills. Yeah my doo whooped some arse straight up the hill and on the trail but the stop and go down hill side hill on hard snow while easily staying on one ski from the M sold me.
I hope the G4 is improved. I wouldn't mind getting back on doo.
