AlpenGaudi

Two sledges, two opposite answers

What they cover here

A two-seat steering bob and a one-piece slider.

Where their listings pull ahead

The bob publishes a steel steering gear and a hand brake with steel claws, plus a storage box — the mechanical parts of a sledge, named. The slider is HDPE, a material chosen for staying flexible in the cold rather than shattering, and it is the only sledge here whose material is explained that way.

Where they slip

The bob states no load rating, on a two-seat sledge whose whole question is whether two adults can use it.

The live figure beside a product went and asked the shop for it the moment this page opened; any amount written into the text has not moved since the sentence was drafted, and it is the first of the two that counts.
