XTX and Wheelies

[Daranello]

will the XTX wheelies just as nice as the RTX????? will the tipped rails help it???

My experience with long tracks says no it won't. But the Nytro engine comes out of the hole so hard and with the 6° tipped rails maybe this one will? I think the skis will come off the ground under excelleration I just don't think your going to be able to stand it vertical as easily as the RTX on hard pack unless you have a small bump in front of you.

it still wheelies pretty good. i think if it didn't have the tipped up rails it wouldn't wheelie as good. i rode it for a while at cascade and it did pretty good. not as good as my rtx but close

My roomate has a 600 switchback 144 with tipped rails and he can still stand it up pretty well.

She should do fine. My Summit 800 144" has no problem standing up on her end. You can wheelie any sled if you really want to!

My Attak would wheelie off trail, but on trail she would only bring the skis off the ground a couple of inches. Where my buddy's Apex on hard pack could almost flip over backwards if he wanted to. I had the transfer rod on my Attak set for full transfer too. My stock 2001 MM700 with the stock Yokahama track in fresh off trail snow would point the headlight straight in the air but on a groomed trail it had nothing. I think off trail the XTX will pull the skis alot better than the RTX. But on hard packed trails the RTX should be better. When trail conditions were good this year my RTX could bring the skis up anywhere from 0 to 35 mph. The RTX is a wheelie monster on groomed trails. I think the XTX will pull the skis on groomed trail too just no where near as dramatic as the 121 Nytros.

Yeah same here with the Attak....the skis would never leave the ground
