I'm a Sled
2015
Team Intrepid designed a low profile sled. It's very simple and made for someone to sit on and get pulled from two points on each end of the front of the sled. There are walls to protect us from the dodgeballs that come at us. We have function requirements for our design located in the next paragraph.
Function requirements:
1) Can hold a weight of 225 lbs.
2) Can work in grass and snow.
3) Design weight=40 lbs
4) Protection System
5) No metal/plastic/wood
6) Must be able to get wet without deteriorating.
7) Personal cost under $75.
8) Must not tip over.
9) Steering radius of a 5ft minimum.
