Yes, you can get ice blades for a buggy and then buggy on ice. You can go quite fast!

It is actually ice. Several companies make blades that attach to the axel points. I believe it 's a pretty quick bolt-on affair. To bad I don't have the latitude to support such device... it allows any frozen lake to be a perfectly smooth, low drag, wide open playground.

You have heel straps on your kitecat ! Nice!
I've never seen three people on one of these before.

You must make a video using the kitecat on ice !!! :D
