So... Snowcats are pretty cool. We chatted all about this trip on the Dirt Talk Podcast! www.buildwitt.com/dirt-talk/travel-report-winter-x-games-construction-hanging-out-with-jarryd-mcneil-and-cal-fire-training

[@henrybatzler2466]

As a ski nut this is the best buildwitt video I have ever seen. Well done intro literally gave me chills.

[@Jfk_Clinic]

Ive been waiting for a video like this for sooo damn long

[@tommyfrank5896]

As a snow groomer, I still look up to these guys even after years of operating and building. Honestly my dream job if I was ever good enough!

[@Rainbowzzify]

Never thought id be this excited to see a snow plowing video pop up on my homepage.

[@AaronWitt]

we're here to serve

[@jpxc1329]

I do it for a living can’t get enough of it

[@christopherflannery5034]

Same here! I just wish it was longer!

[@jasontaylor4799]

This is sick , I hope you do a summer x games version , love the construction content

[@timsd0nahue]

Great content as always. Understand limited time, but the tiller is equally as impressive as the blade. And you’re not kidding about the diesel; I would burn 70 to 90 gallons of diesel grooming mainline ski runs in a Prinoth Beast (Cat C13, 520bhp, 31’ long, 23’ wide blade wing to wing, 20’ wide tiller). Thanks for the great video.

[@kylerbrekke6301]

Who's wearing the tights in the end? Eric or Aaron?

[@ollitiilimaki4310]

"Could be a good shot idk." Then came the coolest part of the video.

[@PacoTheCuban]

I really liked the last shot with Aaron and Eric warming their toesies by the fire

[@slibsager]

Right? I just about spit my drink out when I saw that.

[@feelinghealingfrequences7179]

13:53 what a great shot, but dont be so quick to name names and assume...its not zesty after all on the right is female legs in pantyhose and matching fleece socks like a couple might have

[@Noname30000]

That water they had at the x games in the metal cans were the best! Wish we could find them in stores!

[@morningkillr]

You guys need to check out the build in Calgary for the big air. They whole thing was scaffold so they used a winch cat at the bottom with a pully system to pull a baby snow cat up the steep landing to groom the jump

[@danielmoore7707]

Great video! Snowcats are sick! Thanks for sharing

[@gabegjl3265]

Love the content and the choice of music!

[@official_buildwitt]

Only thing more Xtreme than the sports is those shots 🔥

[@squa_81]

really cool vlog! And cool shots! That’s quite the unique content!

[@garrettdunkelberger1455]

That intro is a masterpiece...

[@jordan9847]

This was amazing

[@AaronWitt]

thanks for watching

[@nicholasstokdijk9526]

One of the best vlogs to date! Good job Aaron Witt /Buildwitt team!

[@feelinghealingfrequences7179]

13:52 someone brought their girl on the work trip! and she bought matching fleece socks!!!

[@GrantFerdinandsen]

SPT needs to become the official regulator of park builds across North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. There’s to many sketchy park builds and people get hurt when they don’t need to.

[@maverickengstrom5028]

You need to get together with jason and the Dirt Works crew, supercross tracks motocross tracks red bull imagination series. Awesome stuff with them and you!

[@markbickelhaupt4414]

Aaron & Chase, Great video!!! Colorado is the place! Utah is the other home of alot of Snowcats! A Piston Bully is the Swiss Army Knife, in snow. They do with snow what a Chef does with fruit, carve & create!!!! Back in NYS, most Piston Bullies just groom snowmobile trails. Sigh! The Snow Sculptors Live!🤟💪👍!!!

[@007NAC]

So sick! The edit at the beginning was epic and the music was on point! I love snow cats!

[@horizonmike4596]

I love watching these types of videos as someone who works at a ski hill

[@nylonsheep6520]

Your content is so good you have to reach out to NASCAR and do a video on how they convert Bristol Motor Speedway to dirt

[@hondabikez]

The production is AMAZING! Keep it up!!

[@JackTruitt]

more snow please! watching this in a snowcat haha

[@jasonvorhees6070]

As a park builder for a small ski area SPT is the dream crew to be a part of. Thanks for the footage! Not many cat people out there 🤙

[@gradypoole5366]

Remember if it looks steep on camera it’s steep.

[@Rockmonster808]

These guys are absolute masters of the trade - always putting out insane builds

[@johnramsayskier]

Very nice!

[@TheJttv]

I cant wait for they day yall cover a TBM (tunnel boring machine)

[@IronDan93]

love the new content 👍🏼

[@andrewcampbell4580]

Loved the music or the mix in the video

[@caseystankowski158]

Now this is some awesome content! More snow cats!

[@Lracer61]

Amazing video! Have always wanted to run a snowcat. Keep up the great work

[@jerediswatching6563]

these videos are awesome! super underrated! please keep it up.

[@colecouch5930]

A video on motor graders would be dope. I operate one for a company and it’s seeming to become more rare that company’s utilize them anymore.

[@feelinghealingfrequences7179]

except for every dirt road everywhere

[@flo112jf]

Very nice video thx and greetings from Germany 🤙

[@TheWizardGamez]

its pretty wild to think that there even is a market for steep slope snow dozers. but hey... its a big world

[@oldretireddude]

Wow!

[@xtctrader1467]

Wow, I had no idea. Great video.

[@Sy-Con]

This is sick brother! Editing was crispy!!

[@kylethecreator]

That was awesome! I want to see the inside of one of those snow cats!

[@lampshadehighforlife7600]

It’s hard to tell how steep things are on camera I bet him going if the side of that was wild!

[@killstrees]

I've been there with logging equipment before. It's a process learning to trust the machine (and winch cable if equipped) and the techniques needed to leverage parts of the machine to control the center of gravity to work effectively. Once you get somewhat comfortable with it, steep ground can be a lot of fun.

[@giovanniciraulo5510]

your videos are awesome

[@softailrider4976]

I run these sno-cats for a living they’ll blow your mind

[@StarDude015]

That intro is insane 🔥🔥

[@reesemadere2545]

i love snow cats

[@99chevzr2]

Being a Canadian and into const. equipment and construction, and an active red seal carpenter. This was some cool schtuff 👍

[@z0mgbananas]

Should cover how they make supercross arenas...

[@lowkeytalented2288]

Super rad guys

[@AaronWitt]

thanks for checking it out!

[@lalouderouet8024]

Ooooooooooh yeah

[@leonissley7335]

What happened to the newest video about the 315 and 325 variable angle booms?

[@milesdolan7777]

Does anyone know the song in the final montage? Felt crispy watching it

[@1farmer608]

5:14 umm anyone else read the fine print??? Is this a trustworthy news source for the moon landing??? Asking for a friend who is a cat.

[@GrantFerdinandsen]

13:20 I thought this was going to be more about how they engineer and build these features

[@williamleloup4203]

Freaking good video

[@cjbeast1998]

You gotta look at some highway snow plows now

[@alexferguson9836]

All the detail on how they farm and push and what features but no mention of who's really behind the snow... cmsm was here

[@christopherflannery5034]

Really wish these videos were longer! I don't understand why you guys spent two days out at this place and only makes a 14 minute video?

[@_Juke_]

Yeah, same with other vlogs like traveling to a different continent and just few 10min videos

[@ninetyseven7656]

👍👍👍

[@rileymcfadden6382]

You have to hit up dirtwerks

[@UncleManuel]

What is this? White dirt? And what are these are weird dozers? 😂😁😇🤟

[@AaronWitt]

snow dozerssssss

[@chicomanisco]

Wow new PistenBully 400 Park 💥🕹️ awesome video 🤙

[@zeeslangyacht7916]

Great Video. Could you please do a video about Käsbohrer Pistenbullys? They are beasts

[@charliebeyer4394]

If you think they are cool, look up the real snowcat, Prinoth Leitwolf

[@oldreliable303]

Ive been to a skate park two times, and got kicked out both times, no bikes, then no rc trucks... pricks

[@VibeBurstClips]

the speed was really bad during slopestyle sooo...

[@rfarms3720]

More snow cats, less talking

[@charliebeyer4394]

PistenBully 🤢🤢
