i think the best quick made sledge would be a rubber dingee with a layer of beeswax on the bottom.

Few bad sledging injuries in the paper today, one lad leg cut wide open and another in intensive care with head injuries after hitting a tree....

 

I think we should be getting a fair whack of snow over the next few days, so the body boards will be out on the weekend...

Made a set of runners which replace the wheels on the lads go-cart. Goes like stink and very maneuverable with the steering wheel still operational. Also has adjustable seat so usable for all.

 

any pics pal, i got 2 kettler go karts in me shed, never thought a that

 

Here you are, Just made from some off cuts of metal bed frame I had lying round. Like I said I need to replace the ply that was attached to the bottom of the runners (stops snow melting to them). Had to cut the front stubb axles off but one was bent anyway. and can be converted back when the snows gone.

the seat is fixed to a discovery seat runner so fully adjustable.

My son tried some down hill racing but the brake only does one wheel. anyway, he ended hitting a small tree and bent the axle and broke one of the back wheels. Not a scratch on him though. bought the bits but the snow hit before i got to fit them. Still, it can be returned to go-cart if needed at some time.
