With snow in the mountains its time to sharpen our specialized tools. “The Black arm” is a tool we have refined over time. It is used in deep snow conditions to capture high quality production with speed, depth and precision. #productioncrew #remotelocations #blackarm #trialanderror #riskitifyouwantthebisquit @brp__skidoo @skidoo @lynx_snowmobiles @pwatt74 @byronkopman @anthonymarkvitale @gabelanglois @marshalchupa @aaronleyland @kelvinshwong @skippyphoto @asjoliej @mattmaddaloni @snowdriftmedia @czsmola @wizkaleeb @ckmpcrew @marshallkrones @jaymentaberry411 @tony_jenkins @alfordrob @carlkustermtnpark @kustercarl @ashley_chaffin @nadineoverwater @stefplayer @jasonribi @ross.xr @andreas_bergmark
