Classic Ski-Doo TV Commercials
The late 1960s and early 1970s was truly the pinnacle of the snowmobile industry. It was a simpler time when the sport was still relatively fresh and had caught on in a huge way. Ski-Doo was an iconic brand of this age and at the forefront of the culture. Let’s take a look back at a few of their vintage television ads from that time. Many of these ads were exquisitely produced and truly captured the charm of the era.
