Just bring a ski line along and stick out your thumb. I'm sure someone in a sled will be up for a laugh.[lol]

Oh man at the end of the video that looked like a big dent in the wallet!

That might be one of the only things that would ever make me cry.[crying] Might have to work a little harder at it with a Steelheader though. They are built damn stout.:bom: ](*,)

Haven't been coming here much but glad I did today.
Thanx for your question flinginpoo as I got a toon like yours in 10 ft model last fall and really haven't had the chance to use it.

I do doubt an electric will bring you back.

Maybe your question is related to my quandary about 'getting back'.

I know there are a shuttle services but I'm poor.
If you can get two or three other toons or like craft to do a shuttle with each other that would be best.

If others are of a like mind, let me know.
