That's awesome! Always fun to see someone you know in the paper doing a sport we all enjoy.

I need to pick your brain on making a ski set up for my flexifoil....How do the buggies go with "our" ice conditions...You know what I mean. I was out skiing on the lake the other day and as my legs started to burn more & more I wished I had the buggy to sit in and continue having fun....

I've thought about plastic covers for snowmobiles with the carbide runners for this...Can purchase them used and retro-fit to buggy pretty easily
Others (PKF members) have chimed in about running chains or studs on wheels of the buggy itself...
Hard to know what direction to go in as we don't always have the nicest ice around here...That's what I meant about "our" ice conditions...Sometimes ice...sometimes snow...sometimes both...

Thanks, Hope you're going to WBB this year...Let me know if ride is a problem.


Give me some leads as to what I should be looking for.

I love the sled! We had a local news crew create a piece in regards to kiting's increasing popularity as well.
