: Racers fly at speeds reaching up to 60 miles per hour.
: It is not uncommon for professional riders to launch their snowmobiles up to 30 feet in the air and travel distances of up to 130 feet before touching down again.
: Usually short, tight, and highly technical. They are custom-engineered with heavy machinery to include giant doubles, triples, tabletop jumps, banked corners, and rhythm sections full of massive bumps called "whoops".
: As powerful tracks churn up the snow, visibility drops severely due to a thick cloud of "snow dust". Massive holes and ruts quickly form, forcing riders to rely on muscle memory and feel more than pure sight. 🛠️ The Machinery: Consumer vs. Race Sleds
The snowmobiles used in competitive Snocross are purpose-built racing machines and are highly modified compared to what a typical consumer buys for trail riding.
The sport translates the extreme action of summer extreme sports into a frozen spectacle.
