I think I'll pass

Guessing you would need to know a little about parasailing to even attempt this. See parasailors launch from the top of ski resorts using skis so this just a natural extension of the sport.

What could possibly go wrong?

LMAO.

WHY?

 

[POWDR]

I LOVE IT! I am all for people trying new shiat. Even if it goes no where, it is still cool to F around and come up with new things.

 

[bearpaw1977]

would love to see the "fails"...

I used to paraglide back in the day('97) and loved every minute of it! Hiking up the mountain, pulling out your wing, and flying back to the bottom is stupid fun I'd still be doing it to this day if a dust devil hadnt picked me up and spit me out of the sky breaking my pelvis in three placesI hit the ground harder than Lindsey Lohan hits the town. I dont think addding 550lbs of machine to the mix would benefit that experience in any way, shape, or form

 

[Lushbomb]

does not look smart..

 

[Blown Motor]

Wow, took the time to watch this finally, and that is nuts lol. Definitely takes away from sledding, but it is cool to see for sure.

 

[ndC7M8]

seems kinda neat.

Now that looks like fun!
Wonder how you hold on and steer the parasail at the same time?

 

[Coldfinger]

That looks fun. A few thoughts that come to mind:

a - increase in deep snow floatation
b - do not use near cliffs
c - do not use near trees
d - do not use near rocks
e - what prevents the sled from turning sideways or backward while in the air

Throttle and brake keep the skis up or down.

Sideways in the AIR, not a problem, sideways when you hit the ground @ 30mph, big problem.
