- The 2021 Jackson Hill Climb was super gnarly, so we want to give a huge shoutout to all the racers and hill help for their effort in trying to conquer Snow King, and to save the falling sleds and riders who didn't make it. This is a gnarly sport, and we all know carnage is part of the thrill, so check out all the crashes and tumbles we could capture and stay tuned for a highlight video and Keith Curtis recap coming soon!
HUGE SHOUT OUT TO THE HILL HELP!!! Like rodeo clowns on steroids! Brave dudes.
Watched it on the live feed and from the ground in Jackson. Watching this from my recliner and healing up from my own sled accident a few weeks before the hill climb gives me a whole new appreciation for the unsung heroes of the hill. Nice job up there guys!
Sucks to see all these nice sled get thrown down that hill.
Facts
This is the definition of insane....
The simultaneos "oh fuck" from like 40 people at 13:21 is absolutely incredible
I love how the camera mans just stand there as sleds fall past them
Someone has to get the content
Now and then the camera picks up just how steep it really is.
As someone who's films steep hills. I guarantee we don't get any idea how steep it is from the video.
Meaning I bet it is super super steep.
This is insane! Those guys trying to stop the sled from tumbling are FN crazy. Why don't they use nets at intervals near the top? After the rider passes the net gets lowered and is tethered to a couple tress already. The sled might only fall 50' instead of 100's.
In dirtbike hill climbing they have a bunch of people with ropes tied to trees with big hooks on them that throw them around the bike saves the bike and people from getting broken
JB, its all part of the show, that is a major part of what makes it so much fun to be there!
@@carlschroeder6811 It is pretty fun to watch! Lol
Low snow year, the amount of bent everything must have been astronomical 🥴
the tether pull at 8:45 is one of my sons, all the way from Sitka AK.
He did good
Ak boys know how to do it👍
Guys used to try this on 500cc 124” “long tracks” just insane how far snowmobiling has come
What did you guys use to film this? Looks incredible!
2nd this, the quality is unreal.
Most interviews I’ve seen with KLIM it’s usually a full frame Sony camera they are using, most common is the a7siii. It’s definitely a longer lense they are using as you can tell when they pan to the ski lift right above it’s very up close in looks. Bet it is either a 70-200 lense or similar
Finally see the point of this. Day drinking.
The same reason people love every other power and motorsport. It's awesome. Get off your computer and go do something.
My hats off to the guys who run Up the hill towards the sled tumbling down towards them!
Those are some bad snow conditions.
They do it in late spring, as the snow is already melting. Then you send several hundred power shovels up the same line the snow disappears quickly.
Those rescuers need to have tied off ropes with hooks at the end so when they slide towards a sled all they have to do is hook something ( any part) and it will stop the machine instantly.
5:40 overconfidence from cam man at an all time high
The snowmobile stoppers stoping them from falling down the hill is more impressive than the snowmobile rider them selves
Никто так и не добрался до финиша? Чуваки которые ловят снегоходы фанаты своего дела!!
The way net catches those machines is hearth breaking.
Just a hunk of plastic on metal if u think about it
@@wyattscheerer6469 as in flash on bones?
@@Simonofcalifornia flash on bones? I’m talking about the snowmobiles are just a hunk of metal and plastic
@@wyattscheerer6469 isn’t that same to compare humans as such? That snowmobile has more computing and horsepower then any human.
@@Simonofcalifornia uh... no, a snowmobile has far less computing power than a human. and the main difference between humans and snowmobiles in way of worth, is that humans have sentience and a soul. snowmobiles have neither.
I could watch this all day. Cheers
Did you take a page out of dirt bikes hill climbing books and use ropes with hooks on it tied to trees
I love the ppl trying to stop the sleds
I just wanna say thanks to the video guys! This is what I was waiting for and for the editors next time leave all the snowmobile body slams from the net at the bottom every single one of those got me gut rolling😂🤙🏻🤙🏻
Just what I need to get too sleep, you are all my hero’s
They crew on the hill are fearless
Great job on the video people, thanks so much for posting it. I love watching Jackson Hole hill climb!!!!😊😂👍👌❄
5:30 went for the double whammy
Wow the guys trying to stop those tumbeling sleds are the real show
They should just start at the top of the hill with a truck load of new sleds and one at a time throw them down the hill pretty much get the same results and avoid people pretending they can catch 600 lbs
To the one guy way to use your head man you almost stopped that sled
Are the throttles taped down or something or are the hills that steep
That's a steep hill, the camera doesn't really pick it up that well because the light is kind of flat
I must have missed it. Did any machines make it to the top in this idiotic event?
Whole point of this video is just the crashes… did you read the title?
What size are these snowmobiles
Wats rougher, running that hill or staying at the verg???
Also high quality crash testing for the manufacturers , Polaris for down hill moguls without a rider ,
Why am I only watching this now?
Holy shit, is that guy alright?!?! 5:47
Good work Toby!
2:02 ALMOST landed a backflip at hillclimp
With the amount of snow on that hill it looks more like a who can get traction competition😂😂
@ 1:49 what a goof to stick his arm into the track.
his head was stuck in, his arms where not stuck
There is 400 carbide screws on the tracks it grabbed him!
At 5:52...the carbide toothbrush!👍
If you have any interest in snowmobiles at all, you need to get up on that hill & watch this to appreciate just how steep it really is!!
Guy at 5:40 is lucky the only thing he lost was his Stormy Kromer!
Kinda like Running of the Bulls... 😆
Snowmolanche danger was high that day.
So why do they not wear kill straps?
Hold my beer!
It will be empty when you get back so bring more.
Godamn those Ski Don'ts go down hill really good!
Hill helpers are crazy. I don't love anyone's repairable equipment more than my own body.
What if I told you there is a way to save more sleds
They know. They got money to burn i guess.
Camera doesn't do this hill justice. Snow King is brutal
Hill assist feature? Auto kill switch and braking with tether cable....
Did Gasper the ghost take their sled
That last sled wasn’t happy😂 something got jammed or broke cuz the track wasn’t spinning when he hit the throttle😂
There was barely any snow this year and it must have bean really hard to go up
Wow a new winter sport snowmobowling
Let’s cross a chain saw with a motorcycle and ride it up a ski slope!
It sounded like a good idea at the time!🥶
i think i like watching them roll down the hill more then the climb lmao
dude took a ski too the face
Are there insurance premiums up-to-date? Are they even covered by doing this activity
Generally any insurance is not going to cover closed course racing.
I know my dirt bike and sleds are only covered for loss on a trail, or more likely theft during transport.
this camera angle does not do justice to the actual slope.
Why instead of trying to catch the sled a few of the older guys have a rope with a plastic hook on it so they can try and snare a sled maybe less carnage for the older guys and let the young bloods chase if they miss
They know. No clue why they don’t do it though
... its like the tour de france when people get in the way!
The failure rate here is astonishing. Is it time to rethink what a mountain sled should be?
someone should tell them they're supposed to be hanging onto ropes while they do that...lmao
A whole bunch of ouch.
Brave souls trying to stop them sleds..
I got it
No you get it
5:55 is what you're here for
How about a track with spikes in it?
Sounds great, until you fall under it. Rubber can strip all your clothes off in a couple seconds, don't really want to speed that up.
@@leftyeh6495 That's why you have a line that kills the engine if you fall off
@@TUGG75 You don't get ripped if you have the line on you when you fall off
@@TUGG75 Make the line longer,problem solved
@@TUGG75 Then be s t upid and get the throttle stuck and let the track skin you
They should hire a few cowboys to lac-o the snowmobiles at the top... the rope would be secured to a tree, of course.
2:30 that guys jaw is definitely sore
The advanced contest would be to ride it down too!
Finnaly a place where i cn drive
Been riding 45+ years and two years ago got into Klim gear. I've never had such comfort from gear that keeps me warm well into the negative digits. I'm still in Baffin boots though. They say don't fix what ain't broke. :-)
Nice try Sprunger #515 .... that looked like it hurt a bit. OUCH
Did anyone make it?!
They sure did! Check out our full run videos on the channel.
this looks realy fun !
Those poor sleds 😢
My enticer wound eat the little hill 😂
This is the stupidest thing I have ever seen. What is the point of the hill helpers? To risk life and limb to stop a 500# machine from going down the hill? Just let the machine go down the hill and into the catch fence. They are going to be junk either way.
They need to get the tracks to lock up or the brakes
2:01 DO A FLIP!
💪🏻💪🏻✌🏻👍🏻 What goes up, Is Gonna come Down,,, rider On OR Rider OFF !!!! More OFF then ON... LOL
13:11 sums it up pretty good🥴
Thats kyle pulsifer
At least half of the entertainment is the sled falling down the hill, sadly...
He said finally 🤣
The only sport where spectators get hurt more than the athletes.
I think steer wrestlers would be great at this.
Let's risk our lives for a chunk of metal rolling down a hill.....
5:50 wild ride
I'm honestly shocked that they haven't come up with a tether system where if the rider falls off the brakes engage to keep these machines from continuing downhill.
It would still just keep sliding down may even make it worse
😂😂😂😂 you must not snowmobile😂😂😂😂
Snowmobiles ? more like rockmobiles or icemobiles.
5:41 YOLO
Ridiculous...don´t mix man and machine like this. I can´t see how it can continue on the "ski slopes".
I cant believe the machines can tumble down end over end and not end up smashed al to hell. Lol. They look ready to rip another run up n tumble back down. Didnt look like a easy hill to attempt
Should have more snow they are mountain sled not dirt bike.
Nothing like trashing 15k sleds
I think I see what the problem is!🧐
People don’t seem to accept the gravity of the sport!😩
no wonder all the a arms are backordered for cat
