From a time long ago, when kids could be kids, and parents could be parents (and not be forced by law to helmet their kids…) Comes….

The Wooster “Sno-Bob” Bike/Ski/ sled sorta thing..

It’s 60″ of broken bones fun…

The handlebars move to give the illusion of steering and control.

Fast? yup… Those aluminum skis can get you really cookin’ down the hill… Trees, snowbanks, other people, will help with the stopping part.

Older photo shows a brave soul on a version of this death trap….

Jem Snurfer is 46″ x 6″ w/ rubber grips

Brunswick Snurfer is 48″ x 7″ w/ stapes.

I really want to try one these out. Wonder if they have a suggested age (or weight) limit?
