From the thumbnail, I thought I was looking at two blue urinals. I read the title and thought, Swedish Sledges, that must be what they call two urinals that are installed right next to each other. I'm dumb.

There was no narrative here though. OP said they straight up didn't know if they were made anymore and that's it

I too am Canadian, anything that you can toboggan upon was reffered to as a Toboggan by my people's. It's a big country tho, I can barely understand what newfies are saying.

SSD

I just checked and it weighs 19lbs. It holds up to 3 kids so they can pull it up together but my 8 year can do it alone. It does have a bit of rope attached.

It truly is an awesome sled.

You turn by dragging your hands or feet. I just checked and it weighs 19lbs. It holds up to 3 kids so they can pull it up together but my 8 year can do it alone. It does have a bit of rope attached.

If you haven't already, I suggest using those for sliding on snow as opposed to their original percussive purpose.

Especially for cheap crap.

Microplastics would not be a big deal at all if we didn't turn plastic into a one time use product that fills the streets with untold millions of tons of garbage littered across the surface of the globe.

There's nothing wrong with plastic itself. It's the blatant and disgusting misuse of it that's the problem.

I had one of these ( think, looks similar). They never break untill you smash into hard stuff like lamp poles or rocks.

OP can you see who manufactured these sledges (pulkas)?

I'm a freakishly large person at over 6 and a half feet tall and 300lbs plus. My wife says I'm like a gorilla in a glass house.

That's wild. Our trash bins are stored outside in the sun year round and definitely don't make it that long. In the 25 years we've live in our house, they've been replaced twice and had to have the lids replaced roughly 7 or 8 times. The lids always become brittle much quicker than the rest. I assume because it's sitting flat and taking sunlight from sun up to sun down. They're nice bins, but the California heat and sun can be intense. Temperature range for us is 30 degrees to 115 degrees Fahrenheit. I will say the older ones we had were much more sturdy and lasted longer. They were round with really thick plastic and sort of domed lid. So nothing ever say on top and they never broke. The newer ones are identical to this and the lids are just a bit too thin.

Thanks so much, I'll take a look

What are you doing to your thumb drives that they don't last a year???? I have several that are 5+ and one or two that are 10+ - and aside from speed differences I've mever had one fail or break that wasn't mishandled (ie I accidentally force it into the plug the wrong way and bent it - these were usb-c and micro-usb). Having said that, I usually use SanDisk, PNY, or Samsung. I have a ruggedized one from Gorilla that I got 2 years ago that I am happy with thus far that is USB-A 3.0.

As in the actual totality of the affect. I remember being told what you said but I never looked into it.

Have a look at the Sandisk extreme pro solid state usb drive. It is actually an SSD in the thumb drive form factor and should be exactly what you are looking for.

i’m also i interested! I’d like to know that i have a reliable long-term backup of pictures and other important things.

Guys, I think they’re talking about us.

Had these growing up in the 90s in Canada! I remember using the black handles as brakes to slow down!

Sounds like it weighs about 80 lbs.

Fun for every six-year-old!

Describe turning process and weight of said luge sledge on the way back up please

anyone else think hockey pads from thumbnail?

Shh you’ll spoil ops narrative

Sorry, no. Haven’t used one in years.

No wonder theyve lasted 40 years, hes never hammered with them once!

Stiga still makes ones more or less just like these. :)
