Who said you need to go down a slope to get the proper speed while snowboarding, when you can always get a hundred-thousand-dollar Italian sportscar to pull you. Since it’s not the first time we've seen an exotic speed-machine being used as a horse, we’ll assume this is some sort of a new weird sport the eccentric wealthy petrolheads out there do nowadays.
In New Zealand they actually use horses to surf their boards. We’re clearly talking about Chloe, a professional horse trainer in Kawakawa who trained a wild Kaimanwa horse to gallop with a wakeboarder skimming along behind. It appears it’s some sort of new water sport they like to practice there all year long. Sure, this we get, since we’re actually talking about real horses, but when you use a 602 horsepower sportscar in the same way things go sideways.
It appears the clip in question was taken in The Snowy Mountain Pass, an IBRA subregion and the highest mountain range in Australia. The highest peak is located in Mount Kosciuszko and reaches 7,310 ft (2,228 m) so the elevation should be offering decent sights for any adrenaline-junky. Yet, it appears this guy felt the need to prove us wrong, so he had his friend towing him on a plain road covered with snow.
Sure, sportscars like Lamborghini’s new Huracan would normally rest in a warmed garage somewhere in such weather conditions, yet this particular white beast had a point to make: winter won’t stop it from drifting. It might seem the speed is quite low and most likely it is, but it’s better than speeding and getting too much attention.
