 Got out Saturday with Tom and Jason.  Tom is new to the crew this season.  He is a ripper.  Especially for someone from Wisconsin ;)  Great ride on the new '14 Proclimb.  Still pretty thin everywhere though.  Need snow bad.  Spent about 15 hrs building it up with tons of different parts before the first ride.  After owning a '12 proclimb, I knew I wanted to see the changes right away with this sled.  BDX arms/spindles help the sled a ton with downhill turns along with the 36" ski stance now.  Polaris gripper ski's are way better than stock or SLP PP's.  The skid changes to the '14 made this thing not nose dive like the '12's.  Power is incredible.  It's a 153 and feels like I have the climbing power of my M8 162 with the 2.6 powerclaw.  Tons more power than my '12 pro rmk with belt drive.  Did snag a tree stump and snap my rear footboard stirrup.  Was planning on making it skinny anyway, so Rasmussen Airframes and panel pull in here I come.  Wanted to wait for the new BDX boards, but they still have no ETA for me.
