Well I never thought I would consider a Apex, but after riding some demos on a trail this weekend in Minoqua Wi I am really thinking about a Apex.I have rode the 2011's before but it was on a ski hill and you just cant get a real world impression from that. I rode a Nytro and then a Apex and man does the Apex shine bright compared to the Nyrto. The biggest things I noticed was the EPS is for real and makes the ride almost effortless, handwarmers worked!!! I had to turn them down. The suspension was very well calibrated, never rode any Yamaha that was as good as the Apex in the bumps. All in all I want one, but if the Nytro ended up with those three improvments I would stay with it instead. I think Yamaha is making good choices in its improvements and is listening to us. I was pretty floored by the Apex but still like the ergos of the Nytro, but I am not ready to buy yet, my Nytro still has a few seasons to go.
 
Lets wait a couple more days and see what they suprise us with this year.
 
My dad gave me the option of giving me his 07 Attak when he got his 1200, but I declined and kept my Vector until I got the Nytro. The Attak was the absolute worst handling sled I have ever been on, worse than a stock 08 Nytro. It had slydog skis, bergstrom triple points, shimmed, and it still darted and weaved all over the trail. The Apex engine is awesome and they look and sound cool, but the riding position of the Nytro is 100x better.
 
Which Apex were you demo-ing? XTX SE or Base?
