FROM THE MANUFACTURER - MORE ON THE ULTIMATE FLYER:
The Ultimate Flyer is an elegant, hand-made beauty that glides and turns like no other sled you’ve ever tried. The entire front section of the sled pivots, letting you make much sharper turns than on a conventional flexible flyer. And, it looks great standing on the porch in between sled runs. The Flyer is made to last for generations: thick birch planks, hand-carved willow hand rails and stainless-steel hardware make it tough, and we can hand-paint a child’s name right onto the sled. Measures 48”L x 24” W x 4” H, 12 lbs.
When we build an Ultimate Flyer, we start with planks of beautiful, golden birch. We plane down the planks, sand them, burn in the Mountain Boy brand, and give every piece several coats of exterior-grade polyurethane. We attach hand rails of hand-carved willow, giving each sled a unique look and feel. Copper ferrules between the body of the sled and the rails add to the rustic look, while adding substantial strength. Just how strong? Well, some of our crazier fans take them off 6' jumps and see just how much airtime they can get.
On the bottom of the sled, we attach a pair of proprietary, custom-molded plastic skids. We like to think of them as greased lightning -- they are very fast, but their shape allows for smooth, decisive turning. Contoured runners bite into the snow or ice so you can carve down hard-packed slopes, while a solid bottom of custom-molded slippery plastic lets the sled float through soft snow.
Our crew, based here in Silverton, Colorado, is made up of people who are both sledding fanatics and woodworkers – as you can imagine, they are always trying to make each sled be as beautiful, functional and sturdy as possible.
The Ultimate Flyer meets all ASTM and USC child safety criteria. Please contact us if you'd like a copy of the independent test results. |
