Apparently, biohazard suits work well on the snow. So, if for some reason you have a spare biohazard suit sitting around your house, you could give it a try on the snow.

Airboard Snow SledLike a boogie board, the Airboard is a body sled where the rider lays on their stomach and sleds down hills. The Airboard is bringing in the new snow sport of snow bodyboarding.

Being inflatable, the Airboard is made out of a durable (1 year warranty) nylon material and can be inflated in 3 minutes via the hand pump that comes with it. Depending on the model of Airboard, it weighs up to 7 lbs. The lightest model the Airboard comes in weighs 3.5 lbs.

The Airboard isn’t just another snow sled. It is made to have fun with, and isn’t only restricted to the usual sledding down hills.

To steer the Airboard, the rider shifts their body weight from side to side. The runners on the bottom of the Airboard help give a nice controllable ride.

For avid cyclers out there feeling the blues during the winter, check out this product called the 4dsnowbike kit.

The 4dsnowbike kit attaches snow blades to the front and the back of a bike, making it able to go on snow. The back attachment leaves a space for the rear tire to touch the ground, so you can still use your pedals.

Is it hard to ride?

4dsnowbike says the following on their website, 4dsnowbike.com

“The 4dsnowbike does not take experience to ride, we have found it to be easier to ride than a standard bike. It’s almost like training wheels were put back on your bike!! We wont say it’s un-crashable, but you about have to be missing both arms not to be able to hang on for a ride! It is truly amazing on landings! With so much edge you have a great deal of grab time before the bike will go over on you.”

Installing the 4dsnowbike kit
Video below shows how to install the 4dsnowbike kit.
