The Arctic Shark Sled- Downhill and Adapted

Designed by Gibbons Industries Inc., the Arctic Shark is a unique sled made for the thrill of downhill sledding with special features making it both safe and exciting. The Arctic Shark is a steerable, downhill sled designed primarily for use by people with disabilities.

Granted, this is a bit early for winter sports, but it is never too early to check out an exciting product. Especially one that can have you burning a downhill run at speeds up to 100 mph.

A number of ski resorts in the upper Midwest have adopted this sled and are using it for races and programs for people with dissabilities. With the capability of reaching speeds up to 100 mph, this sled can be a very exciting experience.
Here are some of the features:
  • The sled is not only steerable and stoppable as well.
  • A friction brake system allows safe and controlled stopping.
  • Protective roll-bar.
  • Safety restraints.
  • A tube-type bumper that protects both the riders and the sled.
