My passion for snowmobiling started when I was 9 years old and my parents bought my brother, sister and I each a 1970 Polaris Playmate for Christmas. Since then, I have ridden and owned a wide variety of sleds manufactured by: Polaris, Scorpion, John Deere, Johnson, Mercury, Motoski, Ski-Doo, Arctic Cat, Brut, Yamaha, Roloflex, Kawasaki, Snojet, and Rupp. For the past 20-plus years, I have made Yamaha my snowmobile manufacturer of choice. In this day and age, manufacturers are very comparable in the sleds they produce, but you have to pick one — right?! Since the late 70's I have been attending the annual Hay Days Grass Drag events, and over the past several years as I walk through the vendors and the swappers, I have pondered a new and innovative idea or product that other snowmobile fanatics like myself could get excited about. In mid-2006 an idea struck me [customized snow flaps], so I started the wheels in motion. My first step was to have a snow flap mold created, and after several attempts, finally a quality snow flap that passed the test. The next step was to invest in the software and equipment that would allow me to create and cut, heat-treated vinyl stamps with custom logos, names or designs.

B-RAD Custom Products sold it's first customized snow flap order to Hauck Power Sports of Rice Lake, WI in mid-December 2006. I'm excited to grow my current customer base by customizing a snow flap for you, a friend, your club, or your business. I look forward to a great 2007 and doing business with those I share the sport of snowmobiling with.
