CONCORD, N.H. — On Thursday, February 4, 2010, at approximately 10:30 p.m., Bernard Czeremin, age 52, of East Hampstead, N.H., suffered life-threatening injuries from a snowmobile accident on Big Island Pond in Hampstead. Czeremin was operating his snowmachine on a drawn-down section of the lake with exposed logs and lake bottom. He struck a dirt mound, went airborne and was thrown from the snowmobile, sustaining serious injuries. He was not wearing a helmet. Czeremin was transported by DHART helicopter to Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
The accident is under investigation by the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department Law Enforcement Division. High speed is believed to have been a factor.

After a little internet searching, reading, and checking up on this stuff I found it’s a pretty well established product in Canada and hails from Quebec where they have this funny habit of speaking a lot of French. Thus the name, Jig-A-Loo, and the company’s claim it derives from a saying they have up north, “I’ve got it!”
