- yes - yes, you can remove and swap batteries. - I’ve heard yes, but i have not experienced that yet.

@@edgereport Thanks a bunch for the response. Much appreciated.

I don't man, they sold out world wide. The big cost is in the batteries. Basically each battery is 1500wh and if you were to buy the exact same size battery from goal zero they are $1,800 each. The MoonBike can have 2 of them to give you 3 hours of riding time. Thats $3,600 in just batteries alone.

Let's see what betavolt can actually do! It may be what is needed if they can pull it off!

No not really. But be funny if he was.

Trespassing? Multiple offences can lead to jail time, he IS climbing private property

We don’t think he should be in jail. We do similar things ourselves and wonder how he is not in jail in, so we can also not be in jail. 💜

@@edgereport why would he ever be in jail the public built and funded every single piece of architecture he climb on. It’s just nuts that’s a thought people think they’d go to jail for that. Slaves , past present and future

@@TheNotYetProSkaters You can easily go to jail in the USA for urban climbing or urban BASE jumping. Different cities have different laws. Other countries are more or less strict as well.

@@edgereport yes I’m sure there all tyrannical with these laws over our heads. I’m sure you accept that being so acceptable with their behavior. Constitution is the highest law. If you want to climb some shit we all Paid for so be it.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you for the kind words!! Hope you have a great winter season!

Soooooo icy!!! Where is da snow?

@@edgereport heard the alps have it good.

@@patrickglaser1560 Alps are getting hammered right now. I'll be out in the Cascades later this season - I'm sure it will shape up for the best!

Thank you!!

Thanks for watching Luke!! ❤

Thanks for watching ❤❤ :)

So glad you enjoyed this! Thanks for tuning in SMM! (and thanks for all you do for the outdoor community!)

Thanks SuperFrenchie! <3

Thanks @superfrenchieoffical !

Glad it was helpful!

To clarify, that's how most slab avalanches start - the emphasis of this video being that even small slides (D1 Size) can be deadly in the wrong terrain.

Take an AIARE class!!

@@briAction Goes without saying - an understanding of Avalanche conditions and safety is incredibly important! Yes, taking an A3 Approved 3-day Level 1 program is a fantastic way to start this process!

Glad you found it helpful 😊

Ha! I have always done the opposite. I prefer to buckle from toes to power strap to position the foot better in the toe box and gradually work towards the heal pocket!

You’re V welcome 🤗

😂😂 totally!

We have been preferring "normal" for the most part. Both normal and sport mode have the same top speed, sport just has a stepper throttle curve.

I was under the impression that this had identical hardware specs to a street legal class 2 or 3 ebike if it tops out at 25mph max. If so, I'm not sure if it is legally required for registration in the states. I can't speak for Canada tho

@@Shmogeote I suspect when used on government land they will treat it as a snowmobile and require registration.

How much do you think the frame weighs?

@@CredibleHulk 70lbs…80lbs maybe..

Not something I would recommend

Never tried the Taiga Nomad, looks really cool. It's about 10k more than the Moonbike though.

Great question! We chose to compare the Moonbikes to snowmobiles because that is currently the most common gas-powered snow vehicle that people use for winter recreation. But you're right that a more direct comparison would be to a gas-powered snowbike. The advantages of the electric Moonbikes over gas snowbikes are: Instant torque - no need to rev up a motor Lower maintenance with fewer moving parts Quieter operation No exhaust fumes The tradeoffs are shorter range and lower top speeds compared to gas. Overall we found the electric power and quiet operation to be big advantages around town and for quick backcountry access for ski touring. But gas snowbikes may still be preferable for long distance trail riding. Hope this helps explain our thinking! Let us know if you have any other questions.

It deffinitly is. I am american and I can say I carry slings but I prefer cordolette. It's just more versatile. You can untie the knot and you have 30ft of accessory cord. You have more options as far as anchor building, emergency friction hitches, tie up anything you need. Also good for self rescue situations. I do also have and sometimes bring 120 and 240 cm slings.

@@crabbiboi5528 yeah, I just carry two 240cm slings for multipitch anchor building, and my partner carries one 480cm sling, plus our obligatory prusiks. I've never seen someone use a cordalette in Australia, though I'm sure some people do.

​@@crabbiboi5528 Same here. I carry a backup sling for multipitches but almost always use a quad cordelette. I've been climbing for years now and I've never needed to use a cordelette or sling. I do use a hollowblock to haul a follower's ass up if they get stuck in a crux.

I have the cordalette for performing rescue. It's primary use is to transfer loads. This becomes necessary when belaying from above if I want to escape the belay and go check on an injured or unresponsive climber. I can also use it to pass a knot. And while it's not the most efficient it can be used for Mechanical-Advantage Raising Systems.

The cordalette is not an American thing. I know this because I was one of the people who introduced it to American rock climbing, through my involvement with the AMGA in the early 1990's. I learned about it while going through the Guides training program in Canada. A little before that time, Antoine Savelli who immigrated from France to Colorado, and started a guide service, brought the cordalette with him. There are others that also preceded me in introducing it to American rock climbing, I just happened to do it when the development of guides training and certification was really getting going, so it kinda took off at that time............

Thanks Morten! We are working on dedicated video all about self-rescue, how to use the cordelette, and other types rescue gear.
