A "New" Kind of Sledding Video...

[jpgmtech]

Pro's: Lot's of variety, flatlander freeride, oval, ice drags, grass drags, mountain freeride, hillclimb, watercross, vintage (okay... it's all vintage!)
Con's: Stupid sound effects

Still fun to watch and piece of history. Even has some not bad cinematography too. Get out your popcorn! She's a long one!!!

This was my first sledding video. Have in on a vcr tape. Oldie but a goodie. More of a promotion to snowmobile video.
Neon colors and bolt on paddles

Thanks for the memories

My first one too. Got it while working out at Buck Lake Bob's part time, I was still in high school. Good times! Finally got around to the digital conversion. Finished Snowmotion II and Snowmotion IV last night. I don't have III for some reason...

Best link I could find:


The link to the snowmotion series appears broken. But there is a contact area. I was looking for a DVD last year but couldn't find any. Just finally got around to digitizing my copies. I don't want to put them up for all the general public to see on Youtube due to copyright though.

1:03.22 starts the first professionally shot mountain freeriding segment that I know of. This was my favorite part of the whole film!

Also my first sled vid! I remember when it came out me and a buddy drove up to Vernon to get a copy because the sled dealers in Kelowna were sold out! Ha!

We got home and spent half the night rewinding the tape so we could watch the Revy segment over and over! We were phoning all of our friends to come and watch the huge jumps some guys were hittin' on a Wildcat & Formula Plus........with PADDLES!

Funny, but watching the riding style looks so un-natural now. Hard to believe what we used to do on the old sleds, not to mention the work we did to make them function. Hurts my back just watching them jump while sitting.

Ha ha too funny "new" video. I have a part in Snowmotion IV Extreme Sledding, riding up Brandywine in the Whistler area. Brings back some good memories. Been 16yrs since! No wonder I'm so washed up. lol

Wow those copyright police work fast. It's been up less than a day and already I have been served notice that the video may contain music licensed by a 3rd party. No panic yet though, according to the notice. I will keep this private link up on this website only for now.

Holy cow that is freakin awesome! Had no idea they made sledding videos back then. Pretty funny to see how far things have come. I wonder if we'll be laughing at our current bad ass sledding videos 20 years from now? "Look at that guys sled......it has two skis and a track!"................"why does that little red headed guy keep excessively peddling with one foot?" haha
