Canadian born Randy Swenson and Team Thunderstruck have been making the snow fly recently in the increasingly popular sport of extreme snowmobiling, pushing the boundaries quite literally over the edge with a whole host of insane new tricks. One of Swenson?s most celebrated is a 2500ft vertical he coveted for a while at Revelstoke last May. ?After looking at this chute the entire year, I finally decided it was go time... I managed to fit through the bottle neck through the rock walls with 1-2 feet max on either side and going vertical. Once I topped out, the camera crew landed and one guy was crying- a grown man shedding tears for my safety. It was cool.? We?d like to wish Thunderstruck 7 an insane season.... as if they need telling!
