    New Winter Sport?

    I'm sure I'm not the first person to think of pulling a knee-board behind a three wheeler, but for some reason, I always get crazy looks out on the lake when I do it. These are just a couple pics of me and the kids in MI last week, but it gets pretty wild when the big boys get out there in some hard packed snow. Sorry about the crappy quality, they were bad photos to begin with and the scanner is a little screwy lately too.

    We used to do that with the TRX250 utility. All I can say is dont ride the sled when TimJr is driving because he doesnt slow down for bumps!

    Yeah, I was really wishing I had that setup for the U.P....or a snowmobile. The 350X sunk like a rock in the loose snow unless I hit it in 4th gear tapped out. It was still a lot of fun. Is anyone here from the U.P.?

    This winter, I pulled my friends up and down the road, and in fiends with the Foreman. They were behind on the snowboard. It was very fun.
    [20:55] <waterpumper> putting a racing pipe on a Foreman is like putting a high dollar bikini on a 400 pound chick...just because it fits doesn't mean it looks cool

    We've done this for years up in Alaska! All sorts of vehicles, ATCs, ATVs, snowmachines, trucks, whatever. The two funnest things are whippping people around in circles by doing brodies in parking lots, or going down the unsanded backroads with a skier or boarder in tow. We rotate through who gets pulled whenever the person getting pulled lets go or falls. Lots of fun!

    We use to do that alot around here. We'd use a peice of ply wood with a rope to pull behind a trike or truck, and then another one to hold onto. Object is to try and sling the person off. Really fun in the truck, you can get going about 40 and then crank the wheel and nail the throttle and powerslide and watch the guy on the board pass you. I always aim for Ant Hills, and the last couple times we did it a person was on the back throwing little bunches of hay out the back trying to hit the person on the board too. Fun stuff.

    We did a similar setup like this with my neighbors ski-doo safari 377 and a ghetto sled from Dick's sporting goods. We got up to about 35mph around his yard, but I think we did it one to many times because when it was my turn the sled totally cracked in half, we even drug it over a small piece of blacktop to get to the other side of the yard. Tore the sled up. Tough going around the corners. Got beat up, wear a helmet.
    If it aint old I dont want it!

    We started doing this this year with my trike. Its a lot more fun when you have 2 sleds in tow. We also tried sking with water skis and that sorta works but we fall too much for it to be fun.
