Pickerel Lake 2024 was a success considering the year with no snow. Definitely more people showed then what was originally thought. Here is the highlight video from the weekend. I did miss a few of the highlights from the day but I had to walk away once in while. Overall another great year! Till next year!!

Yea there was only 9.5 inches of ice this year.. normally it’s 2 ft. So she kept breaking this year lol

Honest question, why do some snowmobiles bounce across the water and others just smoothly cross?

@grizzlygreg8922 3 ай бұрын

The bouncing is done by the rider. Sleds don’t do that on their own. It takes “ body English” to make it happen.. the only reason they do it is because side it adds to the show. It’s more exciting then a sled that just skins flat across

@michelepaltzer5690 3 ай бұрын

There seemed to be more crashes after crossing this year. No snow so the ice must’ve been really slippery.

@grizzlygreg8922 3 ай бұрын

I would say it played into it for sure. Landing on snow would definitely give more grip then glare ice

When will they learn that doing wheelie water crossings are the worst thing to do as when the skis come down and make a big splash it gets the belt wet and down you go, hahaha. 🤣

@grizzlygreg8922 3 ай бұрын

Oooo I hear you there. The wheelies add to the show so that’s why they do it. But it comes with a bigger risk for sure 👍

I never thought about that, having never done it, but makes sense 😂😂😂

@evanriel 3 ай бұрын

Keep thinking that every time I hear the sleds smack the water and hit limiter, like you’re playing the risky game of sinking it when you could easily get across lol
