"O.k, in this clip we're going to talk about riding the snowmobile. This is going to be pretty much how to ride on a trail, which is a hard packed surface that's been groomed or ridden down by other sleds. So, basically, you want to sit down in a good position and hold on reasonably tight because you know, you want to be in control of the machine at all times. You've got your hand brake on your left hand, and your throttle on your right thumb. So, when you're riding along like this, you want, the snowmobile has a centric clutch that engages at about three to four thousand rpm's, about a quarter throttle, half throttle. So, when you go to take off, you can give it some gas and it won't, it won't jump forward immediately, so, what you want to do is you just, you just give it a little more gas, and rev it up and it'll catch and you'll be on your way. Turn right to turn right and turn left to turn left. It's really easy to maneuver the skis once the snowmobile's moving, but they really don't turn when you're stuck on the and not moving. On the hard packed snow you want to keep your balance when you're going around a turn, you can kind of lean a little bit into the turn if you're turning left, you want to lean a little bit to the left, turning to the right, you want to lean a little bit to the right."
