The iconic snowmobile guru, Roger Skime returns as an ambassador to Arctic Cat. Skime is well known at Arctic Cat and in the entire snowmobile world for his unbelievable 57-year career at Arctic Cat.
Over his 57-year tenure at Cat, Skime was a key player for engineering, design, test rider and passion for the various types of Team Arctic Race Teams. It’s a natural and proper fit to see Roger back with the revived enthusiasm of the green team.
Skime began his unbelievable 57-year career at Arctic Cat in 1962 as employee number 5. He made his way up the ladder from only a “summer job” as a teenager to VP of Engineering. Retiring in 2018 in his mid 70s, it’s a huge boost for Arctic Cat to have this much loved and respected icon back.
Thrilled about his return, Skime commented, “There was a lot of concern and stress about the brand, and I was communicating with Brad (Arctic Cat’s President & CEO) every so often saying, ‘Brad, go get a hold of this thing, get it back on track.’ Now I just couldn’t be happier, because there isn’t a better guy to do that than Brad Darling.”
Welcome back Roger!
