Another wild video today, this time of a snowboarder narrowly jumping over a snowcat grooming the trails in some unknown ski resort. Lets just say that the ‘boarder gets quite lucky, and that you shouldn’t try this at home, and just leave it at that.
Thanks to The Goat Blog from BackCountry.com for this one.

Is it set up??? The snowboarder doesn’t look surprised as in he doesn’t look back or stop or anything. Probably just done for a trick i think!
I’ve seen suggestions elsewhere that it is a set-up as well, and I noticed that he didn’t look back at all either, which is kind of odd, set-up or not.
I work for a major ski resort and there is no way mountain ops would go for a stunt like that…at least on my mountain.
