SKI-DOO Summit 850 Turbo vs Non Turbo v2 

100%

I know the feeling bro.... just sell it n get the turbo

I think that is utter nonsense. The NA had seven pulls and each time right in its same track for 90% of the pull. The turbo didn’t get into the track until at least half way up and made it in less than half the pulls. Granted the track gets set up better each time but if you think the difference between an NA and a turbo is track poaching, I have to strongly disagree. I just went turbo this year and there is no comparison. 2023 turbo Carries 180 hp to 8,000 feet. At that altitude I believe the NA has 125 hp. No comparison.

Yeah, I was not filming for a comparison, just trying to get to the top. Then my buddy said..."Wanna ride my turbo?" What would you do?

exactly, I could ride my old 90's RMK up those tracks lol

Limiter strap was in stock possition on both sleds.

@@cheynedetwiler so she climbs

Yeah, I thought this would be real comparison too 😅

Not a real comparison. I just got a chance to ride my sled and buddies new turbo. I was running the same track to try and get over the top. The turbo had a nice edge on track speed.

@@cheynedetwiler Ohhhhhhh, Soy Boy Bend click bait. I get it.

Ya no shit...you call that a comparison????!!!!! F...

Eh, open area doesn't help with avalanches but just because its open doesn't mean its avalanche-prone... if you know an area well enough you know whats avalanche prone and what isn't... I wouldn't call this a sketchy spot compared to some of the shit I've ridden

As soon as I have a turbo, no more music.

Sorry RR. I was just trying to get over the top and riding two different sleds. I'm not a qualified reviewer of OEM sleds.

:poaching"

@@Rotaris1 that's what auto correct does when you talk instead of typing but I never said I could spell lol

Sorry about the music. There is hardly anything out there. New turbo sounds coming soon.

Yeah that’s why there’s all those old videos out there of people doing bow ties, hop overs, and technical boondocking. “bEcAusE wE diD tHe saMe tHinGS.”

@@downbytheriver501 no kidding lol. Most of modern riding is physically impossible on these “older sleds with shorter tracks”

@@kjmahanna5138 yep. Just got my turbo sled last week and got to try it out this weekend for the first time. Coming from 2 gen 4 summit which were awesome, along with the gen 3 I had before that. I didn’t think I was good enough at the time to warrant more power, so I progressed my skills to the point where I hit a plateau and now, finally, after about a decade of riding modern sleds in the back country, found myself craving more power because the altitude inhibited my abilities. The new turbo sled is worlds better than the old sled; I can perform techniques that were very difficult before at high altitude, and with the shorter tunnel it aids in maneuvering as well. People like Kevin are delusional if they think they can access the same terrain I do with even an NA sled.

I dont know about doing the same things but I was having just as much fun. Maybe more. Loved my 151. Might be time to go back to a 154.

Thanks Bro!

@black bear no I’m not a 165 3 inch should have no problem pulling that hil

@@rykercarlson2131 It always looks easier on camera!

@@outfitr9703 I know but still even on camera there’s becomes a point where it’s just down to the rider

I’m not gonna say it’s all rider but looking at hill angle to the trees it’s not steep and I’ve climbed some pretty steep hills in deep powder with my 163 3” 850 non turbo
