ABSTRACT:
Each sled runner or rail from a conventional snow sled is provided with a pair of skis for attachment thereto. In particular, the section of the sled which bends or twists in response to the sled handle has a sled ski attached thereto which corresponds to the length of the bending section while the remaining length of sled rail has a second, separate sled ski attached thereto. As a result, when the handle is actuated in the desired direction, the metal sled rails will bend in that direction and the section of sled ski attached thereto will easily be directed in the direction of the bent sled rail. In this way, control and maneuverability of the sled is greatly increased relative to the numerous single piece sled ski attachments typically found in the prior art.
