Hellaciously fun past-time.
We have received about 8 inches of snow here in Toronto and it keeps falling. I saw a kid bumper hitching on the way to work this morning and was wondering if this was a uniquely Canadian venture.

Grab the back bumper of a car (usually in a parking lot) and go for a ski.
The bumpers on new model cars would probably make this more difficult than when I did it as a kid.

I did it once earlier this winter with my friends car...didnt go very fast tho hehe....never seen it as a practice or form of transportation tho heh

used to do this on UPS trucks when I was a kid. As I grew older, UPS grew smarter, and put "slanted" bumpers on the back of the vehicles, so you could not stand on/hold onto the bumper

I feel bad for kids these days missing out on the fun that is bumper hitching.

Kids nowadays just smoke pot and drink beer, not much more fun than thats~

Did that once while in Korea (Osan AB). Before going into the bar it was nice and sunny out but when we left the bar there was nearly a foot of snow and the roads were iced. So my buddy and I, being just a wee bit drunk, grabbed the back of a taxi and slid about 4 blocks up to the next bar we wanted to visit. Lots of fun.

nope, just done in canada. I think they ice skate there as well.
