What happens here

The team points out a 'graveyard' of old, broken snow pushers, primarily from competitor brands like 'Raptor Plus'. They explain that conventional plows are often irreparable after significant damage, especially to the moldboard, making replacement the only option. In contrast, Arctic's sectional design allows for easy replacement of individual damaged sections, significantly reducing repair costs and downtime.

Goal: Highlight the modularity and repairability of Arctic snow pushers compared to traditional designs.

brand new I spent 800 bucks it was my pride enjoy man I saved my money up for this no bucket this was years ago gave it to my operator he came back 30 minutes later in a u-shape 30 minutes he destroyed my snow bucket it looked like this except it just went great he ran it into one curb and it was gone it was just like it's not repairable yeah and it's just destroyed yeah these are definitely a price point unit but again they suffer the same weaknesses that other normal pushers on the market do and we make ours so it is flexible to get up and over obstacles in a sense I use that word flexible loosely but if you do hit something you can't get over or you bend a wing you bend the moldboard it's just unbolt it throw a new one on and you're still able to get to that storm as well so this is the graveyard and a lot like this for example we have permission from the property owner not you know that we could do this this isn't a normal common situation we're here to test the abuse and you know abuse the plow is really what we're looking for because we know that a customer may not use it correctly so we're always designing for to get abused not just used correctly all right one of the things that we've been running into a lot with our customers is aftermarket blocks and what they are is they're cheap after-market blocks made out of materials that are made for other things and that's what makes them so cheap so when you guys are buying your blocks you want to look for our logo and part number on the blog it's very important because otherwise you're not getting sold our block and you're not going to be satisfied with the way your pusher works and unfortunately it some that is out there but what you can take from this is that look for our logo on the block and then it will work the way it should and it won't break alright
