Snowmobile skipping

[3] A sunk sled is able to be revived by cleaning water out of the carburetor, exhaust, spark plugs, and replacing the fuel.

[3] The front of the sled is pitched upwards as riders commonly do in deep mountain powder snow.

On June 25, 2013, Antti Holmberg of Finland set the record for snowmobile skipping at 180  km (112 miles).

[7] Watercross competitions are held during the summer and the participants of official events wear life jackets and helmets,[3] and have a buoy tethered to their sleds.

For example, in February 2006, a Massachusetts man died in New Hampshire after sinking into the water during a failed skimming attempt.
