Used to do it behind snowmobiles in Alaska. Go hit Chilkoot Charlies for few shots of tequila then go pop on the skis!

nahhh, if snow is involved, you are not missing anything lol.  See all those people in the video that look like they are having fun?  They are faking.  Nothing fun about snow.

This is the biggest thing on snow and you got a month to plan ahead. Races, tow skiing, horsepower, party like wild beasts.

Used to hook a tow rope to the trailer hitch and hop on a board and go all around the pasture. Somehow, none of us died, or broke anything to badly.
