living in New England, we look forward to the first good snow fall, just waiting for the great sledding and sking to start. we have a great hill nearby but it is tough on the usual cheap sleds, you go so fast on a plastic sled it is hard to steer, you can end up sideways and flip in no time, inflatable vinyle sleds get popped in nothing flat, and the tobbogan is slow unless the snow is frozen, even with a good wax job, and hard to steer when the hill is frozen.
I decided to build some fast tobbogans based on downhill skis, I'll be using some build ideas learned from this site, now I just can't wait for the snow to fly!!!
