Drilling holes in sliders?

[kennyblatz]

i did it on my sleds, used something like a 1/4 inch bit and a 2-3 pattern i think not going all the way through. sliders were good for at least 5 years of high mileage riding. for snowcross some guys would flip the sled over and fill the holes with a soap/water mix let it freeze so during the race the soap would melt and reduce friction.
that was never going to change weather i won a race or not but in everyday riding the holes would be filled with packed snow so i guess it helps.

will it help yeah maybe, will it hurt or cost you anything i don't think so, so might as well
