wow, taking a long tumble behind a powered up kite in the snow has nothing on the tumble this guy takes from the top of couloir with a snowmobile
following him down - awesome GoPro video http://www.earlyups.com/photos/sled-fail/

That was an impressive hit - and so . . . so very close. Guy should have been a bit more relieved than pissed, he was able to walk away from falling
down a mountain, a friggin mountain. And he got his snowmobile back, mind you it was a bit battered around, but its not like he lost it in a gorge;
which, from the environment he was running in is not too far out of the question. If I ate it hard on the beach and was able to walk away and got my
buggy back from an aggressive tide I would be so relieved, not all "GLERKIN, MERKLE KLONST!" or whatever. Sorry if anyone out there speaks Glerkin
Merkle Klonst - no disrespect
I know it's too easy to Monday Night Quarterback, but...
Running at speed.... front end lofted most of the way, it sounds like he's constantly backing off the throttle to drop the front end so he can steer.
At the very top, there are two orange markers that outline his only safe path with rocks on either side.... he clips the rocks on the left. Look how
far over he is from the left hand marker.
Just strikes me as a YOY sport:

Hey! Hill climb is kinda fun ... used to play with it on the dirt bikes. Had a lot of fun trying to ride up whatever we could find. We were stoned
most of the time though ...
I used to love building what ever wreck 4X4 car or truck and hauling it up to Munson MA. to the hill climb once a year. Sometimes braught home a
working mechine. It is a thrill (when you don't bight it hard!!)
Kami's a throttle twister!!:D

WOW... super lucky to have been able to walk away from that one. Wish he bet he could have those last two seconds back and save the sled and long
tumble.
