Sled Talk

Welcome to Sled Talk — where it’s all about snowmobiling, stories, and the ride.

We’ve been riding together since the mid-70s, and let’s just say… we’ve seen it all. From pulling the cord to pulling our hair out, the sport has come a long way — and so have the stories.

Snowmobiling isn’t just something we do… it’s been a lifelong passion. And after decades on the trails, we’ve got no shortage of laughs, lessons, breakdowns, and unforgettable moments to share.

Whether you’re a hardcore rider, someone who’s been away from the sport for years, or brand new and just curious about life on the trails — you’re in the right place.

Our goal?
👉 Bring new riders into the sport
👉 Reconnect past riders with what they’ve been missing
👉 And celebrate everything that makes snowmobiling great

So fire up your sled… and let’s get into it.

Rant & Roll

In this episode of Sled Talk, the guys take the conversation global as they discover that Latvia is a true snowmobiling powerhouse. Who knew? We absolutely love seeing Sled Talk reaching riders in every corner of the world.

We also give Sun & Snow a well-deserved shoutout after Rob has a little fun teasing them.

Back home, the Amphibex ice crushers are back on the Red River, breaking up ice to help prevent dangerous ice jams and spring flooding. It sparks some memories of past snowstorms, including one unforgettable storm where we helped shuttle people by sled and ride in places we normally never could.

Then the rants begin.

Steve goes off on the new sleds being released by manufacturers, calling out how boring and repetitive the designs have become. He also doesn’t hold back on the growing list of expensive electronic features that add cost without adding real value or performance.

Not to be outdone, Rob jumps into the new Polaris lineup, sharing his thoughts on the heavy mountain sled focus, the new Polaris Patriot, and whether that name will really connect with riders in Canada.

The guys also dive into vintage sled trail pass pricing, discussing how several regions are finding success by lowering costs for vintage sleds. More affordable passes could mean more classic iron back on the snow, which is something every sled fan can appreciate.

To wrap things up, Steve’s Tech Tip focuses on snowmobile accessories, breaking down which ones actually add function and value — and which ones might just be wasting your money.

If you’re into snowmobile news, manufacturer debates, vintage sleds, trail systems, and real rider opinions, this is another fun one you won’t want to miss.
