December thoughts by D.Lee

Thursday, December 8th, 2011

So I am sitting here at the computer, typing questions, lining out clinic formats, editing some footage for some up coming projects, and dreaming of snow. I have on my HMK outfit as I am doing all this, either its really cold down here in my office, or I am overly excited about this coming season, if the snow would start to fall! Here in the Tahoe area, we have received very little precipt over the past few months. One snow storm in October that dropped 2 feet at 8,000ft but melted about a week later. Then a few flurries, a 6 inch storm about 4 weeks ago which made the mtn biking trails ice rinks. Its been bitter cold, keeping most of the little amount of snow in the shadows and north facing aspects, but Im not sure if that’s good or not. There is definitely not enough to go ride yet which is starting to be a bummer, but when I look at last year how could we expect anything like that. It snowed more than anyone alive has ever seen. Over 800 inches of snow fall in some parts of the sierra making it one of 8 to 10 winters ever on record. It was also from November starting with an 8 foot storm then another 8 footer in December, and so on…… Ending up with over 3 ft falling in June. Wow……. This winter might be starting a few weeks later than last, but I still think its going to be off the hook. New sleds, new parts, gear and plans are happening every day and the stoke to ride is building. Soon we will all be roosting pow with our crews, traveling around in search for that one turn, that one face shot, one hit, drop or just that one moment out in the backcountry that makes you love this sport and what you get to do out there. So check out another video, read that mag again and get fired up! Cauz this season is going to rock!

Ride On.

Print | Bookmark | ShareThis

By: Press Release

Friday, February 04, 2011

PLUS A CHANCE TO WIN DREAM GARAGE

BRP is showcasing the complete BRP product portfolio with its Spring Ultimate Playground Tour, visiting select U.S. cities, along with a chance to win a $50,000 BRP dream garage.

Starting March 5 and running to April 19 with stops in traditional spring show locations for BRP’s Ski-Doo line, the tour will offer the first chance to see the 2012 Ski-Doo snowmobiles up close and personal.

As a special show incentive, visitors will receive a chance to win a $50,000 BRP dream garage – the opportunity to fill their garage with their choice of BRP products. Special coupons will be handed out at each tour stop and visitors can go online to check their fortunes.

The Ultimate Playground Tour, as a stand-alone event, steps up its offering by providing more products to view, interactive displays, product specialists to answer questions and more time and flexibility to look around – most stops will now be two days.

“Consumers have been asking for one venue to see all BRP products,” stated Marc-André Dubois, Director of Marketing for Ski-Doo. “In today’s business climate, manufacturers need to be creative and address these changing desires. We have answered with the Ultimate Playground; a one-stop display of all BRP products which makes it much easier and a less time consuming buying experience,” Dubois concluded.

Customers can expect to see current Can-Am ATVs, side-by-side vehicles and Spyder roadsters, Evinrude outboard engines, plus Sea-Doo watercraft and boats in addition to the 2012 Ski-Doo sleds.

The complete Ultimate Playground tour dates, times and locations can be found at www.ski-doo.com, along with all Ski-Doo spring shows.
