I want to careen down snow covered slopes, and I want somebody beside me when I do it! I want to bounce around, then continue down the hill upside down. I want to Slegoon!


Slegooning is a new winter sport in which participants travel down a snow-covered slope in single person sledge-type crafts, called Slegoons, in full-contact races. They can continue even when overturned.


The Slegoon won first prize in the UK IOM3 Design Innovation in Plastics competition 2003, and has received international press, from magazines like Blueprint and Design Week.via
