Research the competitions. Find out what time they're held, whether or not you'll have to pack lunch, anything you can think of to make sure you have a great time. Dress warmly and bring a camera.

Step 4
Get to the extreme snowmobiling competition early and check out the course for the best place to sit. You may not have much of a choice in this matter, due to the competition rules, but it doesn't hurt to look. If you can, sit by a jump where you can see most of the take-off and landing, or alternate between the two.

Step 5
Pay attention. If you are able to see the take-offs, examine what the rider is doing. You won't have the benefits of freezing him in mid-air like you could with a remote or mouse, but you'll find you'll be able to get the knack of analyzing each move as time goes on. If the rider makes a mistake, see how he handles it. If a rider crashes, try to figure out why.

Go to as many extreme snowmobiling competitions as you can. The more you are able to see, the better, for that allows you to see a great variety of riders and riders of different abilities. It can also help you to shape the extreme snowmobiler that you'll become.
