Dec 4 2007Sled Has Shocks, Is Fast, Foldable, Costly

The Alu High-Tech Sledge is a pretty wicked sled. It has a 6 3/4" shock absorber to protect your ass from bumps when flying down hills at break-neck speeds. The absorber can even be adjusted for the different weights of riders and the terrain you'll be tackling. The runners can be waxed just like skis so you can go fast as shit, and the thing folds to only 6 1/3" tall when not in use. Awesome right? Well it better be for a staggering $640. Just slap a good coat of non-nutritive food varnish on the runners and you'll be breaking the Griswald Family Land Speed Record in no time.

For those of us that don't have $640 for something you put between your ass and the snow, we will grab the tire tube and have fun hitting the bumps!

Heh, nice reference to National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation...I love that part where the sled-thing just "goes." Anyway, this product (as many do) seems neat, but I wouldn't buy it.
