nope, This is
You guys make very valid points and those of you that keep an open mind, Thanks.
Its hard to see how well these work unless you see it in person. They are not hard on your back. I watched a 14 year old kid reach down and pick the sled up with no problem. We should have some footage pretty soon of these handles being used. Hopefully you guys will see how good they work.
Thanks, Lynn
I can where a guy would be going with this. Having more places to grab isn't a bad idea in and of itself.
That said, my cat has some pretty good handles "built in" to the rails. (Example) They are usually either full of ice/packed snow or buried in such a way that I have no desire to reach in and grab them.
Now, on the other hand:
I can see this being a good idea if it could be done in such a way that the extra leverage didn't bend things on you.
My invention? I'm going to put finger guards on my rear bumper so that my fingers don't get frackin' pinched between the snowflap and the bumper.
And these cocky friggin' doo riders talking about not getting stuck. Well of course ya ain't gettin' stuck. Yer too busy replacin' rings and fixing pinecone damage instead of actually riding!

Now THAT'S funny!
(I couldn't let this one slide by.....! NICE ONE!)
Those look like they would be hard to reach in that far from the side or back.
I bet they would be easy to reach from behind,
wait, are you talking about jugs or the little handles??
And the band wagon says, this is not worth pursuing.

hasn't anyone ever heard of a shovel? besides rolling your sled, this is the best invention to get a sled unstuck.
They bolt on the out side of the rail then they also have a bend so they stick past the rail but not past the track.
The first thing I thought of after seeing this is that you have a tunnel and foot boards.
You would have to reach inside the tunnel. and when you lift, your arms would be at an angle and the boards will dig in to the side of your arms.

Don't knock it till you tried it[/QUOTE]
It's actually a Highlifter jack for sleds not a Highlift jack that you use on your tractor, those handles probably will work great for that ditch deep snow in Iowa.
So many I have rode with think I am crazy to roll my sled out of a stick. Watch and learn. Takes 5 minutes, little effort, and your back riding. Ride with enough different people you start to see what works. A jack? maybe when I am 60.
Not knocking the product Utah theres a market for it, wouldn't call it the best bolt on. Scratchers got that. Then again, my turbo is bolt on.
I can pretty much guarantee you'll be using one long before you hit 60.......So many I have rode with think I am crazy to roll my sled out of a stick. Watch and learn.

Turbo
I would have to agree that the best bolt on mod ever would be a turbo, or maybe a gasoline engine inside a small compartment powering a big as track straigt up the hill. That was a good bolt on mod. Who thought of that one?

And this can be done by just one person ! But if this is something that helps someone great, good luck in trying to market this .Thats the big secret not finding a good product.
