i broke the mount lol.

heres a video from last year mounted on my helmet. its shitty as i still had the broken shock, so it was stupid rough. only got it up to 60 mph before it got way to stupid to handle lol.

101 so you can say you go faster than a raptor! haha

haha im sure i could hit over 100 if i found a smooth enough space thats long enough.
my sleds not geared really for top speed, its a long track so its geared more for the low end for tearing up the powder.

yeah its really the best shit ever isnt it.

people always tell me "why dont you just snowboard, its so much better"

i ask if they've ever ridden a sled, "no" lol

sledding is so much better. so much more expensive to, but its the best shit ever.

I actually lied... Went to colorado few years ago to go skiing got talked into snowboarding. Did that for a few days and after I was so sore from falling down, crashing and hitting an ol lady which i though her ol husband was going to try and beat me up i tried a sled.... The only reason we didn't do it more was because we were leaving the next day. Felt like the first part of my trip was wasted haha

Oh yeah I acted like i was hurt so i didn't have to deal with the ol man bahaha
