Fail......

I can feel his pain, but only for about 30 seconds. I rolled mine this winter out in Alpine WY. Sled went over me twice on the way down. I ended up about 100 feet further down the mountain then my sled. The guys that watched said it rolled about 20 times. Bent the handlbars, broke headlight, windshield and snapped the hood off. Biggest problem was trying to get the stock air plenum put together. I can tell you those who have never had that happen it is the MOST helpless feeling you will ever have while snowmobiling. It happens so darn fast. Cannot imagine having to watch it and live it for 3 plus minutes!

It's in Greenland. Stock sleds cost 25G.:rolleyes:

I noticed that the helmet already had a hit on the visor. Maybe this was not the first fail?

Yup, pretty sure I "tried" to grab it. Never Never Never do that!! When it first started it seemed like everything was in slow motion, then as I was cart wheeling down the hill thought it would never stop. Watching those guys bail off the top to try to help was absolutely nuts in my opinion. Easy to type that now!! And don't get me wrong, that vid is nothing like what I went thru, sucks either way tho!!!

I thought the video from the top was nuts, then I saw the video from the riders helmet. Just plain crazy!!

Then, one of the guys from on top that jumped after him passes him and gets the sled.

Definitely time for a new pair of tighty whities after that ride
