The glory days of sledding are long gone and wont be back. Modern times have sucked the fun out the industry as it always does. There's still the thrill of a 100mph toboggan but the "wild west" of it all, vanished. Boating is suffering the same fools. Everything is about liability these days. What ever happened to common sense and taking responsibility. We used to lick our wounds and fix our shyte. Now we run for the phone to see who we can blame. 

The commentary in the video is good. But why is so much of the video showing mountain riding, snow cross and sled drags?

Years back, I felt it was a huge step in the wrong direction when they took permit sales away from the clubs and put it online. The face to face interaction between a permit buyer and a club volunteer was key.  

Great little video that sums things up pretty well.    After listening to it I found myself thinking of the province of NB, never rode there but those that I know all seem to have the same comment, lots of older machines still on the trail, not sure about youth though, I believe trail help is still healthy and I thought the government is pretty involved too in their system.  Perhaps an anomaly though in the sport based on what I hear and if actually accurate.  But you need systems all over the place to be able to operate effectively, that I’m not so sure is possible in this day and age.
