Taking Sledding to the Next Level

Earlier this week we noted that there was the new Bean Bag Sled, which made for more comfortable runs down the hill. On the exact opposite end of the spectrum there is the Slegoon, which won first prize in the UK IOM3 Design Innovation in Plastics competition back in 2003. Now the new heavy duty sleds, which sort of evoke Mad Max on snow, have evolved into serious competition where full contact between the vehicles during a downhill run is not only part of the race but strongly encouraged. We wouldn’t be to be on a bean bag when these things come at us!
