Abstract
A maneuverable, brakeable, roll resistant high performance snow sled suitable for use on downwardly sloping terrain. The preferred embodiment of the sled embodies a tandem, mirror image, in-line suspension and shock absorbing system connecting the main frame member upon which a seat is mounted to a snow board type runner. Roll stability is achieved utilizing stabilizer wings attached to each side of the main frame member embodying a torsion resistance mechanism. Speed control, stopping and turning of the sled is accomplished utilizing an independently operable braking system.
