Hammerhead Sled

Last week's post about the Reindeer Sled brought out of the woodwork a reader who said, "Enough of the goody-nice-nice stuff, let's get serious."

She backed up her talk with walk, to wit: the Hammerhead Sled.

From the name to the look of it, it's clear this is no sissy sled.

It's for girls with blood on their lips, and those who aspire to such.

$289.99 here, with a limit of two sleds per person.

They're back-ordered for three weeks, so it's clear that word is up on this über-sled.

I mean, any sled that uses crash-test dummies

in the design process has got to be deadly serious.

And the accessories - rear-view mirrors, bells, headlights, tail-lights, etc. - are to die for.

What more could a girl want?

The sled reminds me of an Aeron chair tricked out for speed instead of comfort.

Made in Vermont by people who know snow.
