Hill-Shredding Cushions

Toboggan in the Whimsically Comfortable Bean Bag Sled

If there's one thing to look forward to when snow hits in a month from now, it's tobogganing; so gear up with the Bean Bag Sled.

The Bean Bag Sled isn't the average snow sled that most are comfortable with. As the name suggests, the hill shredder utilizes an actual bean bag as the main seat. It's constructed from 100% polyester material that's been double-stitched so that it can endure multiple uses. The additional PVC coating also helps guarantee a smooth slide down the hill. The front has a durable strap that's attached to two D-rings so that the rider has something to grip onto during the ride.

Want something different for tobogganing? The Bean Bag Sled is what you're looking for.
