y? is that when snow just becomes soild ice? i can't see it being different... snow is snow, and when its deep as how it was when that dude backed out it isn't the easiest thing. it can be done, just it takes time to get use to.

Basically it turns into ice that is all jagged and the car just losses any desire to roll. Surely one can drive in such snow, but it becomes much harder not to stall. Basically just saying that driving in the snow depedning on conditions is not easy.

snow is easy (when its under a foot).
most people when they start driving stick have a tendency to rev it up to much and let out the clutch too fast. I have always found it easier to teach some one to drive stick in the snow rather than dry pavement.
he would have stalled it snow or not. most of the snow in the video is compact and wouldent affect any thing.
the only place it looked somewhat deep was when he first stopped backing up, and that wasent all that deep.
You didnt hear crunching as you would if it was snow that partially melted and resolidified.
I have $10 that the parking brake was on... he lost momentum way to quick for that to be just a snow issue.
