Riding Your Snowmobile

Turning

  • Lean into turns to gain more control while turning.
  • Placing more body weight forward and into the turn puts more loading on the inside ski and keeps it down on the snow, giving it a better bite.

Stopping

  • Pull over to the extreme right.
  • Stop on the right side of the trail so that other snowmobiles can pass.
  • Don’t stop on a curve or hill, where other riders may not see you.
  • Find out how to calculate the distance needed to stop in Stopping a Snowmobile.
