I did see a snowdog flip over today. Not sure how it happened but he appeared to be ok afterwards.From my own experience and from others that I have talked to, they are, in fact, slightly top heavy and will tip over with little effort. The key here is to go slow on uneven terrain or in areas with lots of ruts or logs. Speed will flip you in a heartbeat. If you are uncertain, GO SLOW. Loving mine so far this year and pulled my first two man load on Friday. Easy peasy until I started up the boat ramp at Pineview's Port Ramp. The ramp is HARD packed icy snow. Made it about 2/3 of the way to the top before the track stopped biting and just spun. Turned it 90 degrees and walked it over to the snow along side the ice and powered the rest of the way up with no problem. Lesson learned! I will order the Kold Kutter studs today and get them installed very soon.
