Winter time stunting ??
Okay not all of us live in sunny azz florida so....
I have seen some clips of some stunting going on in warehouses, airplane hangars etc.....is this a regular thing ??
I am looking to do this up north and I am looking for some ideas. We almost have the local dragstrip owner convinced into buying a 400X400 dome to put over the dragstrip but its big $$. I know that it would pay for its self in a few winters but looking for a plan B instead. Just looking to practice the slow stuff.
Forget the "move to Florida" comments as if I could I would believe me. But what about the stunt teams in denver, chigago, new york, KC, etc etc and all the other towns where the winter sux.
Looking for some input....
Cheers

well, winter, i stunt anyways, bring a trailer and a heater and only do it for like 30-45 minutes at a time.
for snow, i have no idea, wait it out i guess. get a quad and practice as much as you can on it to stay current.
