SNOLO: what?

      There's a little buzz about the Basin over a new sled.  Buzz about a new sled design.   Buzz about a sled revolution.  Of course we've heard this before-SEGUE!  Now sledding is popular, wherever one finds ice and snow.  The thrill of a fast ride with the rider in close contact with the ground, or proximity to the ground(zip lines) is almost universal.
     A review by respected columnist Dan O'Neil of a SNOLO made for interesting copy.  Complete with photos of his adventure, he put the SNOLO to the test.
     Results: not so good.  Seems to be some issues, such as control.  Maybe this is the issue: lack of control.  Made of light weight metals and laminated carbon fiber overlaid with epoxy, the sled appears as a potential "good ride".  Alas, not according to our daring reviewer.  And then, there's the price.
     Dan mentions the price: $3000.  Then emphasizes the price:$3000.  And again.  No doubt making a strong point that the sled was poorly designed and outrageously over priced.
    Don't look for a SNOLO on any nearby resort slopes.  The issue of stopping in a timely manner was also mentioned.  Skiers and sleds have never really mixed satisfactorily anywhere.   And not here either.  Check it out in the Wall St. Journal.
