DO I loosen the tensioner strap. Or tighten it? If it is looser the better for a wheelie, what if I just take it off?

I dont think you will be doing many wheelies on a panther 440.

If the 440 panther is your sled its goin to take more that ajusting your limiter straps to make that rocket wheelie. But if you must try its looser.

Almost any sled will pull a wheelie if you setup the suspension right. A guy i know has a 250 bravo that will wheelie all day long. Many seem to think you need a powerful sled to do a wheelie, it's simply not true. It's all dependent on the way the suspension is setup.

Wouldn't that just allow more traction and keep everything to the ground.

Don't listen to TBW  , he just needed another post   . He is learning still. In order to "skillie" as you call it, you can loosen the limiter straps. If you tighten them, like CYI (TBW) boy says, this would cause the skis to stay on the ground. Loosening them will allow you to "skillie". But i also recommend stiffening up the front shock in the rear skid, along with loosening the limiters. This will make a pivot point for the sled and will allow the sled to "skillie". And soften up the rear shock in the skid, a bit.
Have fun buddy with you "skillie's", and get a video for you Fan, FireCat59, LMAO.

Alright ladies. To pull a man skilie.....
Loosen the limiter staps as far as you can. DO NOT take them off because they will send the rails through the windows of the track resulting in a SHI!@Y day. You will probably have to make new holes. To make new holes you heat up a 16 penny framing nail with a blow torch and push the hot nail trough the fabric.
Then go to the back of the rails... I am not sure that your sled can do this. But unbolt the furthermost back suspension linkage from your rails and then re bolt it to the last hole.
Studs and or bigger lugs will do wonders.
Then time to exicute... get one of your fattest girl friends to sit on the back. Then go find a hill with about 30% grade. Ease up to the hill and then gun it. With any luck the skiis will come out of the snow. DO NOT capture this on film and dont kill yourself. Over and out.
SKILIE= wheelie for sleds cuz they dont have wheels!!!!

Thank you for the good post. I decided to just leave it. The sled runs, drives, and turns fine. This season, when my dad's money from my grandmothers trust comes in, I'll pick up a 99' snopro or something, and fix it up the way i want it.

It's because it's going through an auto-loader. It loads the whole movie, then plays it back. If you had gone into the website itself, and clicked on Extreme Films 2.0 Teaser, then it would of loaded right up.
But, that is irrellavant to my post.
