Kick Some Ice With a Kicksled
January 8th, 2009 | by Andy Published in Gear, Winter Sports
Looks like my Christmas wish for this one, never made it to the 'Pole. KickSpark kicksleds are one sweet means of self-propulsion in the winter months. Imagine a mashup between skating and dog-sledding. Only, *you* are the dogs.
With "allround" runners that send you soaring over ice and packed snow alike, and specialized runners for ice- and snow-only, they look fairly versatile. And fairly fun-as-all-get-out, judging from this promo video (gimp suits with racing stripes, not included.) Soon as earn enough for one, I'll be kicksledding northwards to deliver a serious beatdown to jolly St. Nick for letting me down.
