Doesn't anyone check the forecast?? That may have been a hint for Skylar to skip that stop at home between tournaments. I thought he was from Kentucky or something, is Texas a relocated home for him??

Just go 1 year without sleds, you will change your mind and discover how bad winter really sucks. I am only 4 hours from the snow belt, our trails have only been open for maybe a week this whole winter so far. I can ride right from my front yard, the trail drag lives a quarter mile from me, he is my next door neighbor. The trails up north are not the greatest this year. There was one winter a few years back where they had 186" of snow, just in the month of December, when the storm tracks are correct it snows like crazy by Lake Superior/Michigan. I got tired of chasing snow so I gave up on sledding and the almost $20k for a new one plus you have to have like minded friends, its no fun going alone or with people you don't get on with. I cant begin to tell you how happy I am that I didnt snow check a brand new one in the spring of 21, I came very, very close to it before I had some sense knocked back into my head.
That looks like less than 2" of snow, that's still barefoot weather.
Ha Ha! In California no one wants to go out if the temperature is under 50 degrees, and anything under 60 is considered a cold spell! Plus no one knows how to drive in the rain. They speed up instead of slowing down!
Grew up in Ohio. School never got canceled in the Winter time unless the roads were completely unpassable. Remember many days slogging through foot deep snow on my mile walk to school. The cars were sliding off the road at stop signs so you needed to be careful.
On weekends I would sit by the picture window in our den and watch one car after another slide off the road into a little culvert at the intersection behind our house. They just couldn’t stop. As soon as one car got dug out, along came another one to take its place.
Matchroom didn't send a private jet, that would show commitment to the sport.
Looks like a Sled to me or some might call it a Snow Kat.
It's not any inches of snow, it's a half inch of ice. Any fool can drive in snow. Only fools try to drive on ice.
The mailman is the only person that has driven by today. He said he was finishing our street and going home - to slippery to continue.
We had a dbl ice storm when I was a kid in the burbs of Chicago, you could skate up/down hill, and get movin' 40mph when going downhill. This storm took out every power line in our city, knocked down every large tree.... then, the town completely Blacked Out.
People that I know who come from lots of snow call them snow machines, people who have little to no snow and ride them for fun called them snow mobiles.
I guess I can not tell enough from the video, it looks just like the snow we get up here all the time, still have some stuck to my car from the 6" we got Sunday. When we have ice storms our trees are all shiny and the branches are touching the ground.

I actually refer to them as sleds. But most people wouldn't get what I was talking about.
