Generally, the riding position for best
balance and control is sitting. How-
ever, the posting, kneeling or standing
positions are also used under certain
conditions.
WARNING
Do not attempt any maneuvers if
they are beyond your abilities.
Sitting
Feet on the running boards, body mid-
way back on seat is an ideal position
when operating the snowmobile over
familiar, smooth terrain. Knees and
hips should remain flexible to absorb
shocks.

Posting
A semi-sitting position with the body
off the seat and the feet under the body
in a sort of squatting posture, thus al-
lowing the legs to absorb the shocks
when traveling over uneven terrain.
Avoid abrupt stops.

Kneeling
This position is achieved by placing
one foot firmly on the running board
and the opposite knee on the seat.
Avoid abrupt stops.

Standing
Place both feet on the running boards.
Knees should be flexed to absorb the
shock from surface bumps. This is an
effective position to see better and
to shift weight as conditions dictate.
Avoid abrupt stop.
