Bret RasmussenWhen it comes to deep-powder snowmobiling, perhaps no name comes to mind before Bret Rasmussen. With that in mind, BRP joined forces with the mountain king and his Ride Rasmussen Style snowmobile riding clinics to use Ski-Doo snowmobiles for all its activities. Rasmussen has had a decades’ long relationship with Arctic Cat, so this new partnership is somewhat surprising.

In the realm of mountain snowmobiling Rasmussen has done it all, from hillclimb racing, managing a race team, forming a race circuit, owning dealerships, to consulting on design and producing instructional videos, his credentials speak for themselves. As a pioneer in the new trend of back country riding, where the challenge has evolved from a conquering the slope mentality, to add elements of challenging your skills on tight and difficult terrain style, he has led the way with techniques like the “wrong foot forward” method many riders are using today. Currently Rasmussen concentrates on his clinics, videos and seminars spread across North America. Snowmobile.com attended one of Rasmussen’s clinics, which you can read about here
