The First Snowmobile Designs

Snow has always been a challenge to living in rural or mountainous communities, especially when travel is involved. Travel from point A to point B was often so inefficient and unsafe that it made the most sense to just bunker down in safety whenever a large snowstorm hit. As technology progressed more rapidly a solution to travel began to emerge: a motorized sled vehicle that could cover slick or rough terrains with ease. Different versions of these motorized sleds began popping up, each with their own adjustments and features for their specific areas of use. Each of these vehicles was the beginnings of the modern snowmobile. 

The first practical mass-produced snowmobile models began arriving in stores during the 1950s and 60s and immediately found success across the country. The snowmobile industry has grown into a billion-dollar industry with hundreds of thousands of units shipped worldwide. Now you'll find snowmobiles that are designed for tricks or for more recreational riding, but they all have their beginnings with these more practically designed vehicles. 
 

The Impact of Snowmobiles

Snowmobiles changed the way that people lived during the winter. It was no longer impossible to travel and the barriers between mountain communities began to crumble. Taking a trek across frozen landscapes was no longer impossible! Snowmobiles also allowed recreational snow activities to begin thriving, with winter hunting, fishing, racing, and more becoming popular pastimes.

The Ski-Doo® Legacy

Ski-Doo® is a winter powersports brand run by Bombardier Recreational Products (BRP), which is actually the original manufacturer of the first commercial snowmobile. The Ski-Doo® brand is the first major snowmobile line to feature smaller engines, which popularized the product amongst the public. Before Ski-Doo®, engines were so large and bulky that snowmobiling was reserved only for those who had emergency situations or very special circumstances. The Ski-Doo® snowmobile models also feature the first open cockpit-style, so that two passengers can ride and enjoy the brisk air during their adventures. 

Early Ski-Doo® models were extremely popular with hunters and surveyors, who needed to travel over rough terrain quickly in order to track animals or reach their kills in the snow. Once they began to get used in the sport market, the Ski-Doo really took off with more vibrant designs and flashy colors. Sales skyrocketed and the modern snowmobile was born, with riders now choosing Ski-Doo® over the traditional sledding or skiing for their adrenaline rush while out in the snow. Now, Ski-Doo® has become synonymous with the snowmobile industry!
