![]() ![]() Riders that try one will quickly realize the difference is real. The demanding conditions of riding in or near the Arctic Circle shaped the design and engineering to withstand punishment where few (if any) trail groomers exist and to allow for Lynx snowmobiles to thrive in all snow conditions. The Lynx mystique is born from its deep Nordic heritage, that of a community with “Sisu” – a rugged and tough grit to persevere and conquer. “They believe that the best trails are made by nature, and they’re ready to take on the toughest challenges with a modern, active riding experience. “Lynx riders live to take on the unknown, striving to be the first on and the last off the snow every year,” said Janne Tapio, former Scandinavian Snocross World Champion and Lynx Snowmobile Project Leader. The Lynx RAVE RE and Boondocker DS models match that style with unique, high-end features that provide excellent handling characteristics to match the conditions of the ride. Nordic snowmobiling on rough “tracks”, as they call them, is a more active riding style without a lot of sitting down, cruising or riding relaxed. As such, the Lynx models are aimed more toward hardcore enthusiasts. Snowmobiling in Finland is more demanding than it is here in the States, more like what we find in remote areas like Alaska or Canada where trails are not groomed and greater big bump capability and machine durability is required. We’ve been to Finland, toured the Lynx factory and went on a multi-day safari riding Lynx sleds across Lapland.
