Skitching on Skis

After the massive blizzard in the Northeast, I realized for the remainder of the day that there was enough snow on the roads to essentially ski on them if there was any sort of incline. After some thought, I realized it would be pretty fun to skitch around campus on a snow day. Has anyone every tried this?

Here is a video (not mine) so you get an idea:

Why would you need an incline to skitch? NEver done it skiing but lots of snerrrberrding, some bmx, skateberrding etc. Towed some people into rails before and down the road a few times.


Do it because yolo

Sounds like you should throw a wakeboard rope on your hitch and have some fun!

Did it with ATV, best fun ever! But you gotta get a rope and watch out on a turns. It goes crazy fast on a turns.
If you have a chance to do it go for it!

Do it all the time with the snomos to get around work ha we've loaded down 6 people on one sled before. Just remember folks car wise never hang on in front of a wheel, had a couple friends break legs and one get his chest smashed he didn't make it sad day. But skitching is fun as hell
