Meet the Rider

One-on-one with Snowmobilers

See who is riding what and where. We speak to real riders from across Western Canada. From the mountains to the prairies, these are the guys and girls that are shredding it up week after week. Read a little bit about them and see why they choose to ride their Ski-doos, Polaris’s, Arctic Cats and Yamahas. You can also check out their photos and videos or share some of your own. E-mail us a photo/video with some details about you and your ride. Be sure to include the location and date the photo/video was taken.
