Thanks for producing and posting this Nathaniel. It appeared in my feed today when we are headed to Vernon and was a treat to watch. The video and the athletes conversation at the end tell a real story.
I live in Vernon & ski downhill at Silverstar. Sovereign Lake is an amazing Nordic facility & combined with the trails at Silverstar provides an extensive trail network. I really enjoy the classic races vs the skates. ;)
time to make a custom electric powered snowmobile ....... a xc- racer having that 2-strokle exhaust in your breathing area while pushing your body/lungs is not good/fun/healthy at all. I have had snowmobile exhaust in my face while pushing my physical limits on xc track skiing but I was not in a race and just stopped to let the air clear. or maybe this is a short film stint and the machine moves on......probably.........I guess ,I wasn't racing xc ever but loved the exercise and fun it provided.

Judging by the deeper tone of the motor I suspect it's a 4-stroke, not 2. Still exhaust fumes but not as smoky. ;)
