I've got an older version of this sled and recently a new 60" sled and the 42" was the life of the last snowstorm in my neighborhood. (At the time it was the only sled I had.) At 42" it's just barely big enough for an adult. There were two neighborhood kids, 6 & 10 who did rode together with one sitting in front of the other and they did fine. I also took the dogs down with me, so the total weight was 250lbs+. The sled held up fine but it's really too short for an adult. However that didn't stop us from using it. These steel runner sleds are best on packed snow. If you are sledding on a road, you need about 4+ inches of snow that's then packed to make it go. Otherwise the runners hit the pave underneath. If you use a toboggan type sled a few times, either plastic or wood, it will pack the slope down so that the sleds then will work great. Best part about these sleds is that they steer so well. You can ride it either on your stomach steering with your hands,...

This is the kind of sled all the kids had when I was growing up, and I wanted my 5 year-old daughter to have a "real" wood-and-metal sled too, not those flimsy plastic salad-bowl thingees I see most kids on. It definitely turns heads on the sledding slopes, because it's nearly impossible to find this kind of traditional/vintage style sled in stores anymore, unless maybe an old-fashioned hardware store or general store. After much searching we ended up with this one, and it's been a blast. Recommended! Great!, By Vanessuca "Vanessuca" (Chapel Hill, NC United States) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Paricon Flexible Flyer Sled - 42in., Model# 1042 (Misc.) Great product--good price. My daughter was very upset all the adults wanted to use it during the last snow we had. |
