Another Rowdy year in the books for Pickerel Lake! Here is the highlight reel from the day! I spent 7 hours next to the hole trying to get as much as the action I could. I hope everyone thinks this is a good completion of clips! Can't wait for next year!
Don't forget to check out my sponsor Pandemyk Performance on FB and IG or on his website www.pandemykperformance.com/
It won't be long before he will have tunes available for Polaris and Ski-Doo snowmobiles!!
Thank you for watching the video!!

It was my first year going to this and the first 2 times we made it over and the 3rd time we sunk. It wasn't fun in the moment but seeing videos of us is pretty funny.

@grizzlygreg8922 Год назад

Looks cold for sure!! My grandma lives a few doors down from Jerry’s and I keep questioning why I don’t buy a $1000 sled and throw some trunks on and try it.. I mean I can warm up at the cabin lol

If a sled sinks do they retrieve it right away or do they just wait till the end of the day? How deep is the water?

@grizzlygreg8922 Год назад

We pull them out right away, there is a couple of straps with hooks 🪝 and 20-30 guys get a hold of it and pull them up

@ELIRAXPRT Год назад

Wonder the repair costs for these sleds after they go down? Does it hydrolock the motor?

@grizzlygreg8922 Год назад

Most of them start up soon after we pull them up out of the drink. They have to blow water out of the cylinders first obviously

Weird how some sleds skip water like they were made for it and others.....don't make it 10ft. I would do laps around the lake on my Polaris IQR600 and drive it up the river for a few miles, but it was a race sled and had a 2" track

The quality of people doing this diminished alot in the years. Crazy.

I never saw that many sink in all the years I went put together. Also never would see someone slamming their front end down at the edge of the ice. Thats just stupid. Someone is gonna get seriously injured and it will get shut down bc of stupid people. Just wait and see.

@grizzlygreg8922 Год назад

This event has been going on since the early 90s maybe late 80s. I think one major reason the DNR hasn’t shut it down is because the sleds get pulled out of the water which in min and most will start back up and run soon after. But there can be a concern for petroleum getting into water yes. Flooding a boat motor with too much gas does the same thing also. The system isn’t perfect and never will be

@ericm1430 8 месяцев назад

Are they trying to sink it? And why is half the sleds immeditately bogging to death lol. any 600/800 made in the last 15 years can easily do that.

@grizzlygreg8922 8 месяцев назад

What you can’t see in the video is the 100 yards of 6’’ water they have to drive through to get to edge of the ice, lot of belts get wet is a big part of it. Early in the day before the water gets on top of the ice nobody goes in other then the really old ones.
