Fun to trash. A plain old second-hand tire is a great replica Breitling watches choice for tubing on the cheap. The best part: It’s fun to destroy them (although actually doing so is often harder than it might seem). The downfall: it’s hard to develop speed in powder conditions; look for ice and steep grades.6. Paricon Sleds 60” Flexible Flyer ($100)The original steel-railed beauty that revolutionized sledding in 1889, when it debuted, is still accounting for untold winter fun. The Flyer introduced flexible rails that allow the rider to steer down the slope—at least that was the idea. In practice, the Flyer handles as well as a kitchen table. But in a way, that’s the best feature: Steering is more of a suggestion. Thankfully, the sledder-always-has-the-right-of-way precept is still the norm at most hills.
In other words, Watch Out!5. Mountain Boy Sledworks 6’ Mountain Boggan ($200)The hardwood classic. We fit five people at once on the handmade replica Cartier watches Mountain Boggan, and it easily held up. at what felt like Mock 5, too. What it lacks in maneuverability and comfortability (spring for the optional pad; $30). But what the Boggoa lacks in sterrability, it more than makes up for it in aesthetics and sheer fun. It’s also surprisingly durable. If you want a sled to hang in the cabin, decorate your ski-resort timeshare, or pass down to your grandkids, this is it.4. Paricon Winter Lightening ($60 for a three-pack through Amazon.com)The plastic classic. It has all the cheap speed, inexpensive durability, and free maneuverability (i.e. none) that defines a The only downfall, we broke it on a rock half a dozen runs in (although this should not reflect so much on the sled as on our poor choice in a path—i.e.
which way gravity was pulling us inexorably out of control). But the ride sure was fun while it lasted.3. Sportsstuff Super Crossover Tube ($200) The beauty of the Crossover is that it absorbs bumps like you’re riding down the hill on a 4-foot replica Omega watches marshmallow. The downfall is that it careens at warp speed in whichever direction gravity pulls it—like towards that exceptionally hard pine tree. (The bruises on my left bum cheek are still visible). But, man, it’s fun—probably the funnest in the bunch. And despite its 340lb. weight limit, we fit three full-grown (physically) men for a ride down a rock and Bonus: It doubles as a water tube capable of being towed behind a boat.2. Hammerhead Pro XLD ($349) By far the tester favorite.
