Well it's a car, but still.
It looks like it's climbing a 45 degree slope.

Whoa, that's actually a Finnish ski jump hill they climb there (noticed the sign on top of the hill towards the end of the clip). The studdies seem somewhat beefier than your normal studded winter tyres for cars, though... possibly WRC tires or similar.

My studded knobbies on my MTB are almost as good on a lake as road tires on the pavement. It is amazing. It takes a while to retrain yourself to even think it's possible.
It makes you look like a better rider than you are! :rolleyes:
