Hey,

I'm looking for peoples experiences on the snowhawk machines. I live in southern BC so I'll be using it in fairly deep snow. I plan on using it to climb a bit too but not any insane climbs. I plan on getting the 600HO with the long track. How will that work for powder and climbing? I ride a dirtbike in the spring, summer and fall so I'm hoping the transition won't be too hard.

I heard that a snowhawk can highmark against 700s and some 800s. Is that true? If it is, that would be great! One more thing, is there anything that a snowhawk can't really do that a normal sled can? I want to be able to ride with other snowmobilers and have them want me around and not slow them down or anything.

Thanks

Anyone? Would really appreciate some info.

Thanks

I tried one in a pit........i did not like it (to be fair i only went for 5 minutes)....but there was a guy there who rides dirt bikes at the pro-level and i could not believe it was his first time on it ..doing big air no problem, cornering full throttle, they told me if i had more seat time i would adapted....and it was only a fan cool ...but for your application it might be a blast.

I can't really comment on my own riding experiance on the machines but I have seen them at the WSA events. To be honest I would rather watch old people eat ( Sorry Rob ). rather boring if you ask me. They didn't seen to have the power of a 440 sled. The sled guys were getting bigger and more air as well. Watched one guy lay it down in a corner and he couldn't pick it up. Always wanted to try one though.

I know they arn't the best on trails but does anyone have any experience with them in powder or on hills?

don't know if this is true, but I herd that is wasn't leagal in the trails. For more info, try asking your question on the snowest site. www.snowest.com
I have seen a couple of extreme video's with some guys driving the hawk, and I was amazed on how well it took the deep powder. The guys were flying in the mountains with that sled. The 600HO seemed to have allot of power.

never mind about the snowest thing, I see you allredy asked the question there lol
