For Those Who Love The Mad River Rocket

I am starting a blog for all those who like to free sled.


The Mad River Rocket Sled straps on you legs while you kneel, enabling you to cruse through woods, explore the back country, and do freestyle tricks. Pioneers of this sport were excited to continue to explore the possibilities, but unfortunately, the sleds aren't being made anymore. Whitney Philips is was the CEO of the company, and recently made this statement,

"Hey everyone, sorry to keep you all in the dark. I lost my job with the rockets this spring. Dave the owner was unable to finance operations for this year and really last year too. He is trying to get oge to build 1500 units this year. So they might be available there later this season.
It's a real bummer for me after putting 10 years into both company and product to have to just walk away but it is what I have to do. Still love riding them, just not in charge of making them anymore. In closing, I am with all of you.
Where are the sleds cause I want to buy one too."

 A big part of me writing this blog is to continue to get the world to love these sleds. Here is the dream. 

Here is what to expect in the posts, 

• Free sledding news

• Sled modification tips (how to make them faster, more comfortable)

• Sledding tips (where to go, how to make jumps and things)

• Featured sledders

   Now, I don't claim know everything about sledding, so send me stuff that other sledders would find useful.
