Double Kicksled

Kicksledding is pure joy, and turns nearly all sledders into mountain boys and girls. Gliding along on hard-packed snow or ice seems effortless (though it’s actually good exercise), and you get to take your sweetheart or young one along too. As if that weren’t good enough, kicksledding is also excellent aerobic exercise and a fantastic way to get a workout in the course of routine daily activities! Snowpacked streets, back roads, and well-used snowmobile trails are perfect for kicksledding, particularly those with a gentle grade. These kicksleds are an artistic interpretation of a traditional, time-tested Nordic design. The sled body is made of American white ash. The very comfortable slatted seat is made from many different hardwoods. Screws are stainless steel, and connecting bolts are high-grade anodized steel. The runners are highly flexible tempered steel, with polished and waxed edges. Rings are welded to the front of each runner, making it simple to attach a bridle and tugline for dogsledding. Multiple coats of UV-resistant, lead-free finish mean the sled can be left outside for extended periods without damage. The handle on each sled is a specially chosen native willow branch, hand-carved for a perfect fit and polished to show its natural beauty. No two handles are alike, and each has its own unique look and feel. Because each kicksled is a one-of-a-kind work, each is signed and numbered on the bottom by the sledmaker. Longer seat fits two children. Hand rails keep children in, and allow them to maintain a solid grip. Includes an elastic pocket behind the seat that fits a sweater or lunchbox. Welded rings on the front of the runners make it easy to harness a dog. 17 pounds, 36"H x 24"W x 72" L. Weight limit: 300 lbs. Hand Engraving: Engrave a child's name (or an adult's!) onto your kicksled for an additional $20. Sorry, gift message card not available with this item.
