The Newbie we took up to Valemount for his first trip to the mountains had just turned 5 years old. He rode his sled the whole day and had a blast!! Here are a few pics from his adventures.. I thought I would share them since they are so cute!!

1. Breaktime with the boys
2. First crash and stuck
3. First crash again
4. Trying out his snowboard.

That's great. My boy is five this year and will start on his first dirt bike. Next sledding season it's game on! Any recommendations for the kiddie sled? I'd love to get one during the off season, maybe for his birthday. Do they have a remote kill switch? I assume they have a throttle limiter like the quads do.

The wife and I started our kids about the same age, now when we unload we dont hardly see em....cant keep up;)... They are all grown and on there own now and spending $$$$$$$$$ on there own $leds :p Enjoy these times, they go away way too soon. Dino

Where you guys at Clemina on Saturday. We were doing our AST1 field day with Randy and Lori from Zacstracs and saw you guys cruise buy. Everyone got a kick out of the little one ripp'n with the big boys. I think that first stuck happened by us. We figured he was planning on highmarking out of the creek. lol.

Yeah that was us cruising by you guys. He scared himself a bit when he crashed but 5 minutes later he was back on it.. He had a blast that day and rode the whole day and then he rode Renshaw the next day. We just had to tow his sled down one hill and that was it. He was just shy around me cause afterall I am girl and he likes to be around the big boys. But it was a great day had by all..:d

Yes his sled broke down on the trail coming down but we got it fixed that night so he could ride the next day. Just glad it broke down at the end of the day...:d

This might be a stupid question, but I'm gonna ask it anyway: Was it really a 120cc sled? That's what it looks like in the pics... our little girls have them, but I never dreamed they'd be worth dragging up a mountain because they are so little and underpowered. Did you tow it up the trail to save time? Very curious about the possibilities over spring break :confused:
