This Thing can Blow!

[Darryl G]

Finially someone put up a halfway decent demo video on Youtube of a Husqvarna 580 backpack blower in action. I have one and it's a pretty impressive unit, which I've had plenty to say about in the past.

Here's one in jetpack mode

Wow, lots of view but no comments?

OK, here's one- that dude needs to learn how to operate that thing much more efficiently.

Yeah, well as he said he's just trying to demo it, not trying to clean up the park. But what he should have done is at least make one decent winrow or pile to show how it blows those. Where it really excells is blowing large amount of debris, and he doesn't really show that at all. Reminds me of the Rory Gallagher song: Brute Force and Ignorance...it's what I live by! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMw3DZKfKx0

Strange coincidence that there's a guy on Youtube that commented on it with the same name as you and he has a 570 as well...I mean what are the chances of that?

Hehe, I just couldn't resist......

I agree on the huge pile of leaves. That would've shown what that big boy was made for.

Hey at least you have brute force on your side. All I have left now is ingnorance.
