Snow-scoot BIG AIR!

Right click, "save target as..." (~10MB)

So when you're downloading instead of streaming, here's something to read meanwhile.

That gap is ~30ft (9m). The same gap i tried last year and crashed.

About the video, it's all me, and i put some various bails in the beginning. I hit my nose pretty bad on the last video, now it's fine though. But yeh, i finally got over the gap. By the way, that tailwhip over it was first try. Tailwhips on that 14-pound scoot ain't easy, more less easy is to stay on a slippy deck. That made my day.
Watching that whip again frame-by-frame, i discovered i was like 8ft high.

Basicly me and Erti had a lot of fun with my scoot. At noon we spent our time on that big-air box and in the evening when it got darker, it was pretty nasty to ride that big box without any lights, so we went to another spot where we could ride. We bunnyhopped some 6-set stairs and had a sesh on some kickers. Erti also found some good natural spot to combine it into a line with a little kicker, appearantly cold weather causes really fast dead batteries so i didn't catch any footy from the night.
So anyway i'm hoping to get some more footage from some kickers and rails and various stuff next weekends and make a longer video.

Thanks to Erti for filming <3


hella nice

i actually lol'd at the bails hahahahaha.
I had to re-learn how to breathe after the last bail, so i could get enough air to laugh my ass off, which i did.
I was so totally owned.

video was nice gap looks like way to much fun..
problem wiht snow scoots is they pack snow on the deck so that you cant even get grip when the snow packs and turns to ice.
a steezy grab over that beast would have sealed it madis.
nice work

Pretty cool man...

If you have a little bit of extra cash I would recommend going to www.snowboardmaterials.com and buying some grade 2000 base, some metal edges, and some fibergalss epoxy from your local automotive store. Put the metal edges onto the base and epoxy it onto your skis. This would alow you to clear that jump with ease, also, giving you grip on icy corners and landing because of the metal edges. I know your skis are metal, but there is nothing like having perfect 90 degree metal edges, trust me... You may also want to buy some snowskate griptape. The stuff really works and I love it! I'm thinking about wrapping the pegs on my snowbike with it.

I was originally building skis for my scooter, but the weather turned cold and now it is to cold for me to do the fiberglassing.. I put a lot of work into a mold and perfecting the skis which frustrates me when I see it unfinished.
Oh well,

Keep that up man!

Also, do you wax your skis?
