Adult Sled for Inclusion

[Ryan]

Hey folks,

Does anyone have a sled to lend that is large and sturdy enough to pull a seated adult along the ice or snow (not a child's plastic sled)?

The prices I'm seeing to buy are too high for me for a one time use.

My cousin and his wife are visiting from Czechia at Christmas. His wife just sent me a video of Nordic skaters on the lake last year, asking if it was real. She used to be a figure skater and dancer, and loves visiting Vermont, but she just had 9 screws put into her ankle and won't be able to skate with us, or even walk much 🤦‍♂️ I'm hoping to pull her along with us and figured I'd check with you all in case someone has a sled I could borrow for a day later this month. 

Thank you!

I remember a post from a while back where a user used a sled hockey sled as an accessible option. It could be worth checking with Vermont Adaptive to see if they have any information/resources that could help with this.

Best of luck!

See if you can borrow a kicksled- I think that there are several people in the Vemont  group who have kicksleds.

Here is a photo of 3 generations of my family : my sister, 2 nieces and my 85 year old mother crossing

Buffalo lake Alberta. I was skating. You will need "ice  studs" on your boots

I have a kick sled you could borrow if you decide that’s how you want to go. Text me if you’re interested: 802-922-6388.
