I have not seen that many Ridgeline’s on the ice or on the road. As of now, its a small market.

I went to Beberg Outdoors last week to check out their operation. Chris Beberg, the owner, has a demo which is 6.5’x14+3’v. Made lightweight with aluminum bunks and such (weight approx. 2,300lbs). I’d be curious to know how much the Firebrand and Yettis weigh with similar dimensions and layout. However, even with the weight I had an employee show me the lowering system and it was heavy for that, a real struggle to get up and down. Which is why they have a winch attachment. I’ve been in the market for awhile, just cannot make up my mind on which one to go to. I’ve narrowed it down to Yetti, Firebrand, and Ridgeline. I also stopped by Performance Engineering. They said they have only (3) 8′ wide houses on order, the rest are 6.5′ wide. They make around 40-45 houses a year. It tells you where the market is going. With the winters we’ve had the last few years, it’s definitely worth going lighter and convenient.
