    That is really cool. I like the concept and build.

    Interesting. I do think that it would make sense to have some kind of windshield though, even if you’re putting around.

    Buy it Dave.

    Yes, a windshield would be necessary.

    I don't really do sledding, but I would think a seat would be handy to have on it.

    Wow! That’s a cool, simple, well engineered sled.

    They probably strap a hot seat on it.

    I think this is designed to be a workhorse. More of a just get in / get back out sort of tool. Don't think any seat time is needed for that.....

    When doing chores, I often ride our ATV standing up. Seems I’m always jumping off or on, so it’s just easier to stay standing.
